Will Beasley Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 And to top off such wonderful pearls of wisdom they put a picture of me in there setting up a pigeon magnet. Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurcherboy Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Good article, but it was too short by far. We need a monthly magazine devouted to pigeon shooting. Are you listening EMAP? LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Columbus Polumbus Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Don't flatter yourself Will the had a print deadline to meet an probably tripped over your photo :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deako Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 From lurcherboy: it was too short by far You're right mate, it was a bit short, but they told me to keep it to 700-900 words, so it was a bit beyond my control. :yp: In fairness to the 'shooter', they have lots to fit in, so I guess they have to put an upper limit on what you can write.

Fisherman Mike Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 We need a monthly magazine devouted to pigeon shooting. Are you listening EMAP? This would be nice indeed Lurch. I would be able to lay back in the bath at night sipping Glenmorangie, nibbling on a chicken leg whilst reading Pigeon Shooters Monthly... Ah Bliss... Unfortunately I dont think the circulation would cover the production cost unless there was substantial advertising which we are getting in shooting weekly, shooting gazette, and sporting gun et al. Same crud different magazine. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webber Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 I can only agree with FM. I take Shooting Times, Sporting Gun and Sporting Shooter, all on subscription. I must be a glutten for punishment. Although I enjoyed reading Deakos recent article and those by Will Beasley, I can only say that differing authors continue to repeat sound advise, albeit with a different twist. Its almost like trying to re-invent the wheel, and then publishing an article for wheelrights. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I enjoyed reading Deakos recent article and those by Will Beasley, I can only say that differing authors continue to repeat sound advise, albeit with a different twist. Its almost like trying to re-invent the wheel, and then publishing an article for wheelrights This is a good point however to a seasoned pigeon shooter like yourself and many others on this site who know what they are talking about it may seem like repetitive advice, but bear in mind that maybe not everyone is as clued up as others. Everyone has to start somewhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
