oowee Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Out on the barley today what a cracking day even had to take my coat off. I was on this field the start of last week back today I thought it might be quiet but was surprised to see a few birds there when I set up. 54 shot and 50 picked assorted blacks. The field is not far from a rookery and I had a steady stream of birds over three hours until it dried up. I had to chase one down to the river behind me and shot it as it tried to swim. They dont swim so well and even less so when they are carrying some lead . I would have picked that one too but my wellies are not tall enough to cross. A couple made it to the far fields only to fold after a few hundred metres so they were left too. Using the last of my Eley pigeon select and glad to see the back of them. I am sure they are ok but they don't suit me. Back on with the special pigeon 32g no6 which work well on the tougher birds. Only a week or so now and its out for the roost shooting and i have a few places lined up to have a go at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
