Catamong Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 (edited) Remmy, Well done Matey, you've cracked the best way to get quality Pigeon shooting, by waiting until they're causing a nuisance and finding out in person who farms that particular field. A lot of posters on this site look to the Royal Mail to secure their Pigeon shooting, which is a pity, 'cos they're losing out to blokes like you who have the common sense to get out looking for them flighting birds...!!

remmy1100 Posted January 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 yeah always the best approach face to face ,tried another farm yesterday as i heard he has kicked a syndicate off and doesnt want another on his land ,asked him if he had any rape i could cover for him .he says hes got rape but no birds are hitting it yet ,told me if i see birds hitting any of his fields to call in sounds promising ...
