trevor Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 TREVOR We have been shooting this field for about 6 weeks at first it was good but now all that happens is a big flock turns up and does not take an interest in our patterns. one shot and they all **** off but keep coming back and the odd one peals off the flock but goes totaly dead in the afternoon how can we improve things.

Shooting head Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Hi Trevor, Personally I would shoot the same field once a fortnight otherwise the pigeons get too wary and you risk putting them off that particular field for good. There are plenty of other rape fields for them to choose from that are being disturbed less often. SH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 I agree with the other comments, that the field has been hit a bit hard. If you have left it for a couple of weeks, give it a try. They may still be spooky after you fire the first shot though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
