chrisjpainter Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Look in the 'Setting a Decoy' pinned topic in the Pigeon Shooting tips section. That's got a great description and pictures to go with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 As stated above, the more the merrier (we use up to 80) Put the Magnet ahead of where you wish to kill the birds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocknee Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Agree with the above but blimey 80 decoys hope you always get the right spot first time it would take ages to move that lot lol. I usually only start with a couple of dead birds but I have been shooting the same places for over 40 years and know the flightlines inside out so can generally be in the right place to soon add to my pattern.

That's with two of us, one who's only 15 and will at a push move quite quickly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
