docholiday Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I have a day of tomorrow and have planned a day pigeon shooting with some foxing in the evening, we are shooting over cut silage but there is a good flight line over the fields. Thing is it is going to be sunny and little wind, apart from baking in the hide will the pigeons fly much in that weather. Plan on using the rotary on hi speed and a decoy spread, any thoughts doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardo Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 you can but try - though don't be afraid to pull the rotary in if it's not helping. Flappers/peckers/bouncers are almost always helpful though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going up about 3.00pm so hope to bring them down from their usual flight line. think plenty of water will be the order of the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motty Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I went out today while it was very hot and with only a slight breeze. There wasn't too many about, but they decoyed almost perfectly- so good that i managed 2 with 1 shot. I used a magnet and flocked decoys. I had several left and rights in my bag of 26 pigeons and 8 ferals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
