This could be a disease the plant gets at an early stage of its growth it's called stinking bunt but is quite rarely seen now due to the chemicals used to spray. But it all depends on how the seed was treated before sowing

hi just starting shooting want to shoot some pigeons i've got a few fields behind my house, can i go on the fields and shoot? do i have to have permission? thanks
ken
hi ken ,simple answer is yes you do need the permission of the land owner .if you dont get writen permission you could find yourself in deep doo doo .its classed as armed tresspass and could result in loss of certificates and possibly a bit of her majestys time in clink . try to find a local shooter who is prepared to show you the ropes mate

Yea Tom I have read all your posts and what people are getting is a lesson in field craft so even if you don't shoot much you have still learnt a hell of a lot more than you new good on you for being straight and holding yre hands up!

Having been given permission to shoot a pea field that is being proper hammered I have a proper situation to deal with on one side is a large horse paddock and on the other side a footpath leading to fishing lakes and the field being not very wide at all ,obviously I want to do my best for the farmer but just a tad unsure what to do short of buying a moderated gun what you think chaps?

I have a hi lux vx model excellent motor and will get you just about anywhere and not too bad on fuel considering size best advise is grab yourself a test drive of both to decide wich is for you ,but for me personally it was a no brainier

last friday i shot my first ton plus .these was shot over barley stubble,with six full body decoys 14 shells and hypa flaps on the rotator ,my shooting partner had been watching the field and knew it was a goer,although when we arrived it didnt look too exiting,but after watching for half an hour i saw a really strong flight line moving along a tree line on the edge of the wood ,so decided to set up just passed where the birds broke out over the wood and this was perfect .right from the off they were desperate to look at the pattern,wich presented me with some great high shots,and good straight inns.it was such a brill day with four or five doubles and two with one shots. set up by 1200 and finished at 1830 .these days make up for long cold winters days protecting crops dont you think!.any way ended the day with 107 picked and 7 or 8 lost to the wood also 7 blacks.shooting a ton has been a bit of a milestone for me and now its done ime made up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hi all just a note for you all if you call at any good model shop you can buy the carbon rods in all thicknesses in half metre lengths, enough to do two rods really and very cheap. it cuts a doddle with any craft knife

last week whilst out shooting on cut maize game cover had a realy good day with total shot of 53 but what made it special was one particular bird bieng a white woody ,at the time it was shot it was quite bright and caught it as a last second shot ,on looking at this bird its amazing with cream coloured wings and white wing bars bright neck bars and cream coloured back and tail ,its in amazing condition with only a small bleed on its chest and is now in my pals freezer .i will post pictures when the taxidermist has finished it.going to have it done with wings out as flying

Found myself driving up the M1 on business today from Dorset, staying in Wetherby tonight.... boy oh boy do you chaps up here have some pigeons!
I was out on Sat back in Dorset and they are so spread out across the fields finding more than a dozen feeding together is a nightmare! Driving up the M1 around the Leeds area every other field was heaving with them!
Is this normal, or just the time of year for you 'Northern' chaps?!
were just lucky mate !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just a thaught but what if you shoot a low bird and up in smoke a bloody expensive battery with stray shot ,we know this happens so for me it's a 22ah battery for 32 quid that runs my rotator all day dead or paper birds .for sure weight is an issue but you can always do two journeys
