Topgunners Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Hi all. Out today driving round most of the morning looking for the birds. We spotted a few flitting about on laid WHEAT and set up 2 hides and 2 magnets and the afternoon went daft. We shot persistently till 17.30pm and eneded up with 408 pigeons and 1 solitary jackdaw. Another topday and now more £££££££ to spend on replenishing our cartridge bags. Nearly another 500 gone. getting to be a dear game but what the hell. and where were you LURCHER BOY. missed out again. Dave K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Are there any pigeons left in the Coventry area ? None of "my" cereal crops are laying down at the moment and the birds are just flitting about the tram lines. We need more wind !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth Stalker Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 Cracking day again Topgunners Your really living up to your name. None of the wheat has laid over with any great effect where I am, just a few small patches. Atleast I'm seeing a few more birds flitting about the place though.

So I suggest we make it ankles at five paces Well done Topgunners. Dave just think how many you would have had if Allen could shoot.

lurcherboy Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 Bertie, I use a magnet, flapper, 2 springers and 20 flocked decoys. The trouble is they don't always work, one day the magnet is brilliant, another day it acts as a bird scarer I you have them all you can then experiment. Hope that helps and I apologise for the Togunners de-railing your perfectly legitimate post. LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
