WelshMike Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I love pigeon shooting just lack the opportunity in most cases. I do a reasonable amount of crow shooting and a bit of fox and rabbit shooting. My main issue is the lack of numbers in the area and other commitments both shooting and non shooting. I tend to pick up permissions, look after them and hold on to them. This is a double edged sword as I have plenty of land to shoot on but then dont have the time to explore other opportunities ...not that I am complaining. I managed a magnificent 3 the other day...all decoyed perfectly in the first couple of minutes and then that was the end of proceedings. No more birds to be seen....good fun being out though and not a total waste of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redm0002 Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 For the limited amount of pigeon shooting I have done I have had to travel and pay. Locally (Hemel Hempstead) I have posted on PW offering help and although have had many Views, had no Replies. I live minutes away from cereal and rape fields with lots of pigeons. It has only been in the last few days that anyone has been out shooting. Not for long and not decoying. I have spoken to people at clay shoots that have done the rounds asking for availability but with no joy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
