hi there remmy do u use a magnet and flappers and peckers and how many decoys do u put out :rolleyes:

hi mate ,I use one magnet usually,1 pecker ,1 bouncer and 24 shell decoys on spring sticks( these are the essential bits of kit its this movementthat has the most pulling power) then i add dead birds as they fall ,but i dont bring shells in like others.i use more peckers on freshly sown fields and leave magnet in car add couple more bouncers.dont use the flappers

Someone posted on here a tip about taking some old cd's or white carrier bags, tie them to a stick and plong them in the other side of the fields. I tried this once or twice and it does help, especially if you can see that there are 6 or 7 popular spots for pigeons in a huge field, and theres only one of you!

 

BTW, 47 is a great bag, thats some good shooting.
