A portable hunting blind including a chair and a canopy frame draped with a cover. A spring interconnects the chair and the canopy frame for rotating the canopy frame backwardly so that the cover is no longer above the seat of the chair. A quick spring release triggered by a user with his elbow or arm is provided on an arm rest of the chair. In the moment that the canopy frame is rotated, the user may take a shot from a seated or standing position in the blind.
