steelheadjohn Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi Just bought a pair of Air-Pro® Flapping Pigeon Decoys and I spent an hour and three quarters trying to get them to spin !!!! Anyone had the same problem as these are not a cheap piece of kit! As an aside they say in the instructions taht you need to make sure that you use a left one and a right one but when they arrived all four were in seperate bags all bearing the same reference no and nothing to say which was which. Look forward to the replies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elkrout2007 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 look on the inner edge of each wing between rod hole and wing corner should be a letter R or L hold dove errr pidgeon facing you r for right and L left . Make sure there is end play between wing and body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispti Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 make sure u have the wings the right way round, or the wind wont catch em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 i find if you have to tilt them a bit in towards the magnet to get them to spin consistently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelly T Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Once you have found the L & R on the wings test them properly in the garden, we glued them to find one worked perfectly and the L & R were wrong way around on the other..pain in the **** or what.....On the occasions we have used them at best they spook the birds just as they are close enough! at worst they don't come near at all! Have tried many different positions in the decoy pattern, best yet was about 10yrds in front of the hide and 15 yards in front of the first decoy, next time out will try dead birds on the magnet and floaters at the rear of the pattern. Good luck with them anyway........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
