JDog Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 At first light it started to snow heavily. The forecast was for snow until ten then fine with a 20mph wind. I actually went back to bed but the lure of pigeon shooting got me out and about and by ten thirty I was set up with a thick Ivy covered hedge behind me. I stayed out for an hour and a half and picked twenty three pigeons and seven Carrion crows. It was very enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spr1985 Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Our passion for things we enjoy certainly gets us going, many times I’ve been out fishing in the snow, the wife thinks I’m mad 🤣 I will be the same with shooting, just not had any snow in my neck of the woods for a while. Fair play to you @JDog for getting out and enjoying yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a commercial game shoot adjacent to where I was and it has many acres of maize cover crops which is why there are so many Carrions in the area.

GingerCat Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 I looked out the window this morning and thought some mad sod would be out there shooting pigeon. I then stayed in bed until it stopped. Trust jdog to not let me down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hitman Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Well done- again You are picking away with good results, and the call of the wild lured you out of a warm bed. I enjoy that kind of winter pigeon shooting it has a magical appeal. keep nailing the carrion’s - the songbirds will appreciate it in the spring.

marsh man Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 As hitman have already stated that shooting in snow is magical and after a fresh fall the countryside look amazing , we had a inch or so and it soon started to thaw out with the sleet and snow showers turning to rain . Your new gun is certainly getting a lot of use and well done for braving the elements Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lsto Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Well done, I was up early but it was only to go to work, I know what I would have rather been doing, I'm very jealous... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigeon controller Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 Well done JDog for getting out and doing it. Nice to see your hide against a thick warm hedge. Some of the hides shown on the internet have no back and a thin front and show every movement. Again well done for overcoming the lure of the bed!!!

Wilts#Dave Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) 23 pigeons and 7 carrion crows is a great hour long session, I’d get out of bed for that any day of the week. Glad to see you’re getting some good winter sport! Edited December 3, 2021 by Wilts#Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
