Outlander Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Hi, looking for some cradles which and where are the best ones to get?? Cheers Outlander Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 I got mine from the pigeon shooter , decent enough quality at a reasonable price , but to be honest I tend to use glass fibre rods just shoved up the dead birds backsides and into the head They are so much easier to carry , you can add a wing spreader to them to make landers / angels , the standard cradles are a pain in the back side if you have to carry them.

JimLondon Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 You can look on the bay and have a bid to try and get a bargain or buy it now for around £25 for 10 cradles. As for quality I think they are all pretty much the same.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganton Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 I use those green flowersticks there cheap as chips and weigh next to nothing,£1 for 20 I think and they give a fair bit of movement in the breeze. Get them in garden centres, hardware stores ect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outlander Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Thanks, I was out last sat on a field that the rape was tall enough to cover a bird on the deck., just needed something to raise decoys up a bit.
