JDog Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 The beans were drilled on my favourite flight line but only yesterday and although there were some pigeons on there were no flight lines in. Had I taken the decision to shoot these fields today I would almost certainly have ruined what might be a better day in the middle of next week. So I returned to the fields where I shot 52 on Wednesday. I never saw a bird for fifteen minutes then a cloud of 200 or so erupted from a sheltered position. The wind was strong and very cold. There was nothing else for it to set up in a similar position with the strong wind again in my face which usually flummoxes me as I am not brave enough to put the rotary and decoys far enough out to allow the birds to turn into the pattern. I made a half hearted attempt though. Many birds flew on the return line and I shot some which were full of barley. Some on the outbound line decoyed. Others flared wide as you would expect having been shot at three days earlier. This time I did not run out of cartridges but I did run out of time as I wanted to watch the Scotland v Ireland game on TV. I picked 52 pigeons.

pigeon controller Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 It's good that you remembered where you shot and your cartridges. Yes it would have been better if you left it a couple of days for them to find the beans but you are a busy person at present . The presentation was as expected rustic? JDog you had a great day well deserved, fill your boots before you leave the easy Cotswold Birds??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
