Abstract
A decoy for holding decoys in position to attract waterfowl or game birds such as doves or ducks. The stake may comprise a single shaft or multiple shaft portions that are fixed together by a connection means such as a pin extending thorough coaxial sections. The shaft includes a helical coil at the bottom end for fixedly screwing that end of the stake into the ground. A central rod defining a shaft includes an integral S-shaped handle providing a crank handle for screwing the shaft into the ground. A decoy holding means such as a sleeve or receiver extends from a top distal end of the shaft and a pair of opposing decoy holding means such as sleeves or receivers can extend upward and/or outward at selected angles from the upper portion of the support shaft for supporting cross members having additional decoys mounted thereon.
