dogdigger Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 what set-up are using - hide ,decoys pigeon magnet ect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redgum Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 lots of decoys works sometimes, gives em a bit of confidence and a bit of movement like a floater in a cradle. Never use a magnet so cant comment on them. Are they feeding in the field or maybe just resting after feeding elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Let the big flocks settle and take off again. Might sound like a waste but later in the day they'll come back in smaller groups. Then you gettem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 I suggest you keep an eye out for any flight-lines coming onto the field... If there aren't any then the pigeons may well have just found the field and in that case i recommend you allow the numbers to build and let them gain confidence before you hit them! If you don't then this could lead to them scaring off after a couple of bangs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
