malkiserow Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 I had some early UKSW bouncers and was not that happy with them (I think they might have changed the design now) but I wanted to get the benefit of your experience about what bouncers are really good and what decoys work well on top......... Any to avoid? What is good in the field.......? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

here iam Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 I have both chris greens and hawk eyes both top quality , hawk eyes goes one better they are flocked , chris s work with landing wings or gliding wings , he gave me a set at the shooting show where i bought it from . Hawk eyes are a lot cheaper too especially if you buy a few i used both yesterday for a few hours on standing wheat near a bald patch within 5 mins a bird decoyed straight in from know where about a foot from hawk eyes bouncer he didnt take off again they were pulling birds of two differant flight lines on and off for 2 hours i was their you have to concentrate and make sure you dont shoot them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 I have used a wide variety of floaters and bouncers over the years, some made "professionally" (they are the ones you pay for) and some homemade by friends. They all worked very well on their day. On other days they seemed to spook every pigeon for miles. I do prefer dead birds (or hypaflaps) on bouncers, rather than decoys on floaters, but thats just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
