bunny_blaster Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 This morning I left home with the intention of following the line that was coming over the game shoot yesterday. I pulled up at the gate and there were birds moving along it but after following them down the country lanes they ended up in a big conifer wood just soaking up the sun. I carried on looking and eventually found a field with birds feeding but no line in to it. I pushed them off and after 15 minutes of watching the odd one started returning so i lugged my gear across the field and got set up. After and hour I’d shot 2 pigeons so I packed up and went searching again. I found a field with a good numbers sat in the trees and birds joining but the wind was wrong to shoot the field meaning I’d have a long walk with all my gear so I left it for another day. I ended up shooting a field that had about 150 feeding on it and sat the rest of the day out there. The birds stayed very high but I managed to pull a few in a bit closer and ended up with 25 pigeon. Most had acorns in there crops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigeon controller Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 Well done Ben, a Birthday Treat!!. I watched a line while walking the dog this morning and somebody was shooting further down the line. As you reported they are still on acorns. Thanks for posting.

marsh man Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 Sheer dedication and it won't be long where your effort is well rewarded , 25 would be an excellent day for us lesser mortals but we know you are more than capable in putting a nought on the end of the 25 and if you have got enough Pigeons then it will only be a matter of time . THANKS for posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spr1985 Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 Good effort! As mentioned already, persistence paid off. I’ve sat in hedge lines with two lines coming in and not managed that many….although I think that says more about my shooting🤣 than my persistence.
