jez28 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thinking of getting a couple of the AirPro spinning wing decoys for my magnet. Anyone use them at all? Do they work!!?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlistairB Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 i've got them for mine, seem to work ok, local farmer wondered why the pigeons were fying in circles until he got closer - they do make a bit of an odd sound though, but that doesnt seem to bother the real birds.

malkiserow Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 hyper flappers from UKshootwarehouse are better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breastman Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 On a magent i'd imagine they'd be preety good I've got a pair that i some times use as bouncers and they are rubbish for that! They need a decent amount of wind to get going, but too much wind and they're v. noisy and unstable Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stace1g Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I didnt think they were much good either Gaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 i have some, never use them anymore- hyperflappers are much better (though nothing beats a real dead bird) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jez28 Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Yeah i think ill use them on the magnet til theres a couple of dead ones to put on it. Guess you cant beat the real thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Hypaflaps are as good as the real thing IMO and as they only weigh a few ounces, as opposed to the couple of pounds a dead pigeon weighs, you rotary battery last a lot longer.

saggy61 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I wouldnt bother as i had four of these and tryed them in every way possible and they put the birds off every time i put them out, Best thing ppl can do if they have any or these is to put them on fleabay.

chrispti Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I will also add, that I never had a woody decoy into them, the ferrals on the other hand loved them. I had better results with a pair of cheap plastic flying decoys with real pigeon wings glued on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolfinator8000 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I use them and think they are pretty good, they look good from a distance and they bring the birds in for me, of course you still get some birds that scare from it but thats just pigeon magnets for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saggy61 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 You will be better off buying one of these /Terminator-Ultimate-Flying-Pigeon-Decoy I sold my airpro's and got one of these bouncers and they work a treat but are even better in pairs..
