Abstract: A profile decoy frame and cover are sized for the frame to tension the cover. A compression loop in a top run of the frame allows forcible compression of the frame length for application and subsequent tensioning of the cover. The cover provides a largely featureless surface of a dark color with iconographic accents suggestive of the game animal. The frame provides a ground stake set inward from the opposite ends of the frame, yet offset from center of the frame, allowing the decoy to pivot across the wind.
