Abstract
A deer decoy particularly adapted for luring a deer confrontagion ritual. This decoy has an inclined support mounted on a tree trunk or picket and a deer head artifact pivotably mounted on the support. A cord is used for pulling one side of the deer head artifact so that the deer head pivots about the inclined support in a first direction. A spring is attached to the deer head and to a rod fixed to the trunk so that, after pulling on the cord, the deer head pivots in a second direction opposite to the first direction.
