Abstract: An apparatus is configured for use with a ground stake and a decoy body. The apparatus includes a bracket, a pivot element, an elongated member, and an elongated slot provided in the elongated member. The bracket has a first abutment surface. The pivot element is connected to the bracket. The elongated member is configured as a support for the decoy body; the elongated member includes a second abutment surface configured to face the first abutment surface. The slot is configured for acceptance of the pivot element and comprises a travel path. The pivot element is configured for slideable motion within the slot, along the travel path. A method of using a decoy apparatus includes sliding the pivot element within the slot and along the travel path and pivoting the elongated member about the pivot element to change an orientation of the elongated member relative to a ground stake.
