Stephen-H

Would love a day on the pigeons not after a permission but to go along with someone ive my own gun , basc insured , don't mind getting stuck in ive a couple floating decoys and a few more bits yet to arrrive in the post Cheers Stephen

The same as any other crop i would imagine put your decoys , magnet , flapper etc build a good hide & hope the birds start to come in change your pattern according to which way the wind is blowing

have you got fuel coming to the injectors & have you check for any air leaks in the fuel system?

If only you were closer brilliant opportunity for someone close by 👍

Tripe G for me also wouldn't like to see a third fight happen if triple G does win he's had so many months of his career wasted on waiting for the rematch with canelo being tested postive for a banned substance & he's been stripped of the IBF belt its ridiculous the hoops hes had to jump through for this rematch. i would of liked to have seen him fight billy joe saunders & he relieve him of that WBO title he's held captive for three years

Ive had some business cards knocked up with crop protection a picture of myself with the birds i had shot from my last outing with a friend who has a permission my name contact details stated im basc insured and offer the service for free plan to get some laminated and tape them to the gate to the field i see plenty of birds on & also go around on the knock farm to farm in the winter months when the drillings go in. Im from Stockport ( south manchester) but the peak district is only a 30 minute drive away from where i live & cheshire isnt to far away either . Thanks for the advice i will keep a eye on the for sale sections Cheers will update it now fingers crossed! Ive a book from a chap called Richard Arnold on pigeon shooting ive read it a few times and taken some good points from it . I will get the book by Archie Coats also as ive read of him being refereed to as the GODFATHER of pigeon shooting also seen a few old video snippets on youtube of him and another chap he had taken out pigeon shooting cheers

Evening all looking at getting into pigeon shooting so will be starting to slowly buy all the equipment over time ive just taken delivery of two Dj decoy terminator pigeon bouncers & will hopefully be picking up some half shell decoys at the south yorkshire shooting show at the end of this month. Can anyone recommend a good hide net with poles etc & drum seat to get started with? & anything else i might need? Cheers steve

Good luck Old Boggy hope you get some mate 😎

Hi everyone been for a scout around my area i know pigeon season is slowing down this time of the year but in the fields near me ( Cheshire ) there still seems to be a lot of planted maize crop (sweetcorn) some looks to have formed and some not . I don't have the permissions currently as a still new to pigeon shooting ( will be going on the knock soon) but once its been cut is maize crop any good to shoot over?? Cheers steve

Hi all looking at having a go at beating ive never done it before so completely new to it but im a quick learner & don't mind getting stuck in . Anything around Cheshire , Macclesfield , Peak district way live in stockport so not a million miles away im free most Saturdays if this helps Cheers steve

Welcome! From stockport myself so not far away may bump into you on one of the clay grounds

Hi mike also from cheshire myself hope you enjoy the forum lots of helpful information avaible on here

Thanks yellow bear I will check them out .I was at the boar this morning didn't do to well tho on the clays. Do you do much pigeon shooting? The peak district is mainly pasture land I've found not many people grow on it I imagine the majority would be rook & corvid shooting and ferrals around barns etc.

Thanks everyone! yellow bear i shoot at the boar clay ground just off the woodhead pass near glossop. Im going to try get to cold springs clay ground in buxton on the wednesdays evenings as they do a practise session through the summer months & the main shoot on the sunday morning . The nearest ground to my house would of been the little mill shooting ground but it has recently closed due to legal reasons i believe.

Hi everyone thought i would introduce myself to this brilliant forum im stephen from the stockport area recently got my shotgun certificate after having a go over the years at clay day experiences. I have been clay shooting for around five months now and love the sport. A lad at my local clay ground mentioned the site as he goes out pigeon shooting in the summer months im hoping to tag along soon with him . Looking forward to reading up on the sport & hopefully get out and have a go myself! Cheers steve
