If any one down south has a similar set up they want to move on please get in touch!

Or is any other member heading south at all?!!

Shame I’m down south! If you ever pass Dorset let me know. Just what I’m after.

Thanks - if I don’t have any more luck with the dead ones I’ll defiengely give her a call. Thanks for this.

Thanks to all for replying - something to be getting on with.

Thanks for the reply - useful. I’ll give that a go next time before I commit to buying more stuff! Cheers.

As above - I tried to prop their heads up with sticks.

That may be the option - when I placed out the few I shot they didn’t seem to drag in any more...how pristine do they need to be? The dog retrieved half a dozen from the rape so they were a little ruffled would this compromise them being used? finally is it then best to prop them with a cradle? I used sticks to try and hold their heads up.

Longstrider, Thanks for the generous offer...I’m Dorset at the weekends but currently in Swindon during the week with work. I used the dead ones as decoys but thought a few extras may help improve the odds so I can do what I can to help the farmer. The few I placed out didn’t seem to drag many in but then again I could have been off the flight line!

Opionion is divided then on FUDS! Thanks for the link to EBay - I’m no expert but they look pretty green around the neck??

My lad and I got out to help a farmer with his rape field that was getting hammered by some pigeon yeaterday. Watched their movement and threw up a cam net in a hedge line (with hindsight it probably could have been a bit better sighted) still we had great fun for a couple of hours and I won’t forget it in a hurry. If I wanted to get a few decoys to try and improve our chances what would people recommend? Money is tight so it will need to be a low tech option: i’ve seen these: https://www.djdecoys.com/product/enforcer-pro-series-full-body-pigeon-decoys/ Any good? A little more than I’d like to spend, but pigeon decoying isn’t my area of expertise!!! Thanks in advance.

Would you be interested in swapping your grey laminate for wood laminate instead of Walnut?

I'm sure it's probably gone but I don't suppose this is still available? If so could you confirm the Ret as I can't find No.7, and if it's illuminated. Many Thanks.

I haven't I'm afraid - don't know who he is.

After a new addition on the SGC I've run out of space in the rifle cabinet! Does anyone have one of the above surplus to requirement they would be willing to accept an offer on? Ideally in Dorset to aid collection. Thanks in advance, T.
