Good video, thanks for taking the trouble to post.

 

I noticed one of your rotaries appeared to be directly below some overhead wires ( or was that just camera angle?) Foregive my ignorance but can I ask why you placed it there?

 

Oh, and good shooting by the way!

The rotary was placed there just because it suited the approach of the pigeons. You'd think the wires would be a problem, but they didn't prove to be at all.

Editing & uploading can be a bit of a chore but I can safely say we all enjoy watching the results.Well organised set up & some experience showing in the timing of the shooting;I suspect I'm not the only jealous one watching_ still only a few more weeks & we shall all have opportunities on the stubbles.

As pigeon shooters we all spend our time in the hide 'scanning' the horizons & with a head mounted camera one has to train oneself to scan quite slowly after a shot to capture the falling bird(s).This is a skill I'm still working on but perhaps to get it right you need to film or shoot?

Great video -thanks.

Yes, it is sometimes hard to be still and catch the birds falling whilst already getting ready for a possible follow up shot. Some of the film is ruined by excessive head movement and is not used, but I suppose you just have to accept that.

A good video and also good shooting. Well done to you both. What camera was you using?

It's a gopro hero black 3+.

Top video thanks for sharing motty what is the inside net you have

The inside net is a Deerhunter 3D net. It is 1.5m x 6m. That was the first time I used it. It's quite a see-through net, so makes it ideal for the purpose of a second layer. For some reason I just collect nets.
