JD140 Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 Bought a couple of these and have to say that I'm not overwhelmed. Whenever I've used them they seems to scare the pigeons away, take them out of the pattern and pigeons come in again. Also (to me) they look very unrealistic and don't seem to do much flapping even in a stiff breeze. The construction is cheap, the wings are just strong paper. To be honest I think they're destined for the wheelie bin! Anyone else tried them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old'un Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 There's too much kit for my liking, I only use dead birds and if I need to pull them of a line I cannot get under I use a whirly, most of the other stuff is a waste of money and over priced.

A1Decoy Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 JD140, sorry to hear your are not getting on with them. It may be worth puting your magnet further away from the decoy pattern, we havent had any experiance of them shying away from it but you will then catch the flight lines and still have your decoys to dring them down that last little bit! In our experiance the 2 dont need to be too close together. If not pop them on a bouncer and the more subtle movement may suit your pattern better. Old'un, we still use dead birds too, there are a lot of people looking to make their kit as light as possible/may not like tha hassle of keeping dead birds and to them the pro-flaps suit, as we have always said its each to theri own and one shooter will love a product that another hates!
