JDog Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Out and about by 8:30 this morning in a strong cold wind. Today I drove slightly less miles than I did yesterday looking for pigeons and I saw a good line coming out of a roosting wood. The wind was so strong that the pigeons had a real fight on trying to get to the rape field of their choice. For once I really couldn't be really couldn't be bothered to set up and I decided to stand in a small spinney over which the majority of birds were flying. All I had was a net and Jasper wrapped up in his thermal jacket. I was in position and ready by 9:45 and started to shoot straight away. It really was cold but the sport was good and I stuck it out until 12:15 when I had to head home to take Jasper to the vet for a booster jab. Out of the 32 pigeons shot all but one were dead in the air. I must have given myself a good talking to since the last time I shot a flight line.

Bluebarrels Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) That's a good couple of hours JDog,best sort of shooting travelling light and can be productive if the pigeons play ball.
