Staffs-Shooter Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 They take a time to switch to any new crop. Keep an eye on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Swathed rape -v- laid down cereals, I think the pigeon would prefer the cereals I find that pigeons can stay committed longer to rape stubble, than they do to cereals stubbles. Laid Barley for me too - shot 260 on tuesday in 3-4 hours 260 pigeons in a maximum of 240 minutes is some shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulkyuk Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 260 pigeons in a maximum of 240 minutes is some shooting. 2 of us shooting Cranfield, most of the shots were doubles, with 4 dead in the air at times and they were coming in thick and fast - excellent day and probabley the best day i've ever had on the woodies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
