ollie Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 This video was filmed on 8th August 2016 shooting woodpigeons & crows on a wheat stubble field. About 10 days previous to this myself and a mate shot 34 pigeons on the same field prior to it being cut. This turned out to be a decent day out in the sunshine with some pigeons for the table. Thanks for watching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Another good watch, thanks for posting. It was good to see you pulling in the crows, even with a rotary with pigeons on it, thats the kiss of death for me. I can pull crows with crows on the rotary, but they always spook when its pigeons. I notice they have a few strands of barbed wire round the telephone pole, just to stop you climbing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollie Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) Another good watch, thanks for posting. It was good to see you pulling in the crows, even with a rotary with pigeons on it, thats the kiss of death for me. I can pull crows with crows on the rotary, but they always spook when its pigeons. I notice they have a few strands of barbed wire round the telephone pole, just to stop you climbing it. I think because the rotary was to the side of the crow kill area it didn't put them off. I was on the same field about 10 days later & the crows were decoying over the pigeons on the rotary. Whereas I was on a different field another day & had to take the rotary in. Yeah I made sure I wasn't firing through the wires. Not much of a climber though so no need for the wire lol.

Big Al Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Thanks al, you out on the first on the lough? I wasn't out on the first but went out this morning to open the season. I kept forgetting to turn on the camera - which is probably a good thing given how many I missed! I got 4 - 3 mallard and a tufties. Season opened!
