Fowl Decoy Assembly

A fowl decoy assembly includes a decoy that includes a body of a female bird and a body of a male bird. A head is movably coupled to the body corresponding to the male bird. The male bird is positioned to mount the female bird. A string is coupled to the decoy and the string may be manipulated. A stand is provided to penetrate a support surface. The decoy is removably coupled to the stand such that the stand retains the decoy in a natural position.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

Field of the Disclosure

The disclosure relates to decoy devices and more particularly pertains to a new decoy device for luring a turkey for hunting.

SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a decoy that includes a body of a female bird and a body of a male bird. A head is movably coupled to the body corresponding to the male bird. The male bird is positioned to mount the female bird. A string is coupled to the decoy and the string may be manipulated. A stand is provided to penetrate a support surface. The decoy is removably coupled to the stand such that the stand retains the decoy in a natural position.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

As best illustrated inFIGS. 1 through 5, the fowl decoy assembly10generally comprises a decoy12that includes a body of a female bird14and a body of a male bird16. A head18is movably coupled to the body of male bird16. The male bird16is positioned to mount the female bird14during mating. A flap20is coupled to the head18and the flap20is positioned within the body of the male bird16. The body of the female bird14and the body of the male bird16may each have the ornamental appearance of a turkey.

A string22is coupled to the decoy12and the string22may be manipulated. The string22is coupled to the head18. Thus, the string22urges the head18to move back and forth when the string22is manipulated. Thus, the decoy12mimics mating motions of the male bird16. A stand24is provided to penetrate a support surface26. The decoy12is removably coupled to the stand24such that the stand24retains the decoy12in a natural position. The support surface26may comprise ground.

The stand24comprises a first stake28and a second stake30. The first stake28has a bottom end32and a top end34. The bottom end32tapers to a point to penetrate the support surface26. The second stake30is coupled to the first stake28and the second stake30has a distal end36with respect to the first stake28.

The second stake30has a bend38thereon to define a first portion40forming an angle with a second portion42. The first portion40is coupled to and extends laterally away from the first stake28. The second portion42is oriented parallel with the first stake28. The distal end36tapers to a point to penetrate the support surface26. Thus, the second stake30inhibits the stand24from tipping.

A plate44is provided that has a first surface46and a second surface48. The first surface46is coupled to the first stake28and the plate44is aligned with the top end34. The plate44has a plurality of apertures50extending through the first surface46and the second surface48. The apertures50are spaced apart from each other on the plate44.

The first stake28extends upwardly through the body of the female bird14and the plate44is aligned with the flap20. A plurality of bolts52is provided. Each of the bolts52extends through the flap20and an associated one of the apertures50. Thus, the flap20is removably coupled to the second surface48.

In use, the first stake28is extended into the decoy12and the flap20is coupled to the plate44. The bottom end32of the first stake28and the distal end36of the second stake30are urged into the support surface26at a selected location. The string22is manipulated from a remote location with respect to the decoy12. Thus, the decoy12mimics mating actions between the male bird16and the female bird14. The decoy12facilitates a hunter to lure a turkey into the selected location.
