old rooster Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 4-5 weeks here by the looks but I've seen a few pigeons getting onto laid patches. Not always easy to shoot and hard to pick up what you've shot unless you've got a big laid area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 3 weeks where we are, guess the Staffordshire boys are getting impatient but I'd guess they'll be 3 -4 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al4x Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 bit of luck a bit of wind and rain flattens it a bit first, a nice bit of laid barley can be good fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
