unapalomablanca Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) I've been shooting for a couple of years and have never made a ton. I have had days on 2 or 3 occasions when it was on but i blew it. I find i can never stay 100% comfortable in the hide for too long and tend to fidget and end up shooting off balance or not letting myself swing properly. Its funny just lately i have missed so many sitters, so today i decided to hit the sitters and just by concentrating a bit harder they seemed run of the mill again. I dont need a ton but it would be nice, its just great to get a regular flow of targets. To me 100 good targets in an afternoon is as good as a ton.

henry d Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 You need the right field with steady one and two birds traffic coupled to a good hide under the traffic coupled to a good pattern with deeks replaced by dead bids asap coupled to a nice breeze carrying the sound of shots away from any holding woods coupled to dull weather conditions coupled to steady accurate shooting to kill pairs coupled to not leaving the hide too often Really good bags need all of the above. Agree with most, though I have had several good days when the sun was blazing. Have to add that pigeon traffic coming in from the same direction will make the job easier too, so wind/hide placement is critical for that.
