proTOM1 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 After having a client cancel and telling the farmer his rape would be shot i decided to have ago myself . Got to the field at around 10 its a big field with half rape and half drilled wheat the wheat is up but the rape is poor , setup split between the 2 with magnet on the wheat and decoys on the rape ,the wind was strong from my left . The first hour and a half was slow only shot 10 birds but sat tight as i pushed well over 2000 off when i arrived , by 12 30 pm i had around 40 and the birds were coming thick and fast they were every where i looked . At around 2 i knew i was close to the 100 and with birds still coming i was a happy chappy to say the least, i finaly called it a day at 4pm as i knew it would take a bit of time to pack up , but what a great start to 5 days of pigeon bashing . Final tally was 143 woodies 2 passing ferals and a jackdoor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richg Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hi Tom, Was out on rape myself today, only managed 21, but shot 62 yesterday on a flightline. Most of my rape fields are coming away now with not many bare patches. So shooting spots are limited. Still getting a few on chopped maize though.
