An adjustable towing apparatus 100, suitable for coupling a tow pole to a vehicle, with a body member 120; a receiving member 140 for receiving a tow pole; and a hook 160 for attaching to the vehicle. The receiving member 140 is coupled to the body member 120 and is rotatable about a longitudinal axis L of the apparatus relative to the body member 120. The hook 160 extends through the body member 120 and at least part of the receiving member 140; and is coupled to the receiving member 140 such that rotation of the receiving member 140 relative to the hook 160 causes the hook 160 to move along the longitudinal axis L. The body member 120 may have an aperture 137 for receiving an end 166 of the hook 160. Also provided is a method of connecting the apparatus 100, comprising: attaching the apparatus 100 through a towing eye of a vehicle; and rotating the receiving member 140 to close the apparatus, thereby capturing the towing eye in an eyelet 200 of the apparatus 100
