fuzzypigeon Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 went out for a bit this morning, weather was overcast with a slight wind. it was very quiet then it started to snow, once it started snowing i was getting groups or 20-30 coming into the decoys this carried on until i couldnt be bothered to sit in the snow anymore, has anyone else been shooting when its been snowing and found the same??

TIGHTCHOKE Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Always love shooting in the snow, use a branch to sweep some snow of the corner of a field, stand in the hedgerow wearing a German army snow suit and shoot to your hearts content. Great sport and the snow deadens the sound of the gunfire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyska Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 You may have missed your chance. I know how he feels though, I sat for a long time in the snow, just as the birds started to show in any type of numbers, I was seriously on my chin strap, my face snood was frozen to my face, my fingers were dead and my feet felt like single stumps. I was seriously, seriously cold. I had to leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madhunter Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 the pigeons sre more frantic in the snow. more so than when its normally cold. I cleared a 10m section to show rape and the flocked in from all over the place. cant beat the the fact that this time of year they will not be so frantic to eat without the snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
