Harnser Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Nearly 11 birds each ,not a bad average at the moment as far as i am concerned . The biggest bag i have had in the last couple of weeks has been 8 . But i shall endevour to have another go tomorrow .My big problem at the moment is the birds seem to have left the rape and are following the seed drill around .Shall try a field of drilled barley .

anser2 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) harnser pigeons were hitting the rape hard today in mid N Norfolk . I put large flocks off several fields , but as always big flocks can be difficult . Never the less got 34 . The came in well to a magnet some locking on from 1\4 a mile away. Out again in the morning so hoping there will be a bit of wind. I was roost shooting on Saterday and all the birds were stuffed with rape.

Thanks for the tip anser 2 .I have been suffering large flocks coming intogether one shot and off they go onto the drilled cereals .Did try the drilled barley the other day ,shot 4 and away to the rape they went .Its all very fraustrating but something us pigeon shooters get used to .Any how you must be getting some of my birds if you are mid north norfolk , i am around the marsham hevingham area .
