Dr D Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Shooting in Lisburn area today loads of crows round here but not many woodies??? Also about 50+ ferrel pigeons anyone else come across this? Cheers. Craig what time of day are you out and about? I have gone into fields over the past few weeks that have been the same. No birds when I am there in the morning but late afternoon the birds hammer in. Just to illustrate, I watched a guy packing up from a field about three weeks ago he had hardly fired a shot from sun up. I set up in the same field at 4pm and had non stop action until 7pm. Lisburn is usually a good area for pigeons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannon Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Made a rotary with a mate from scratch (well, bought the arms) and am going to try it this wednesday. Anyone know of any game dealers over here willing to take pigeons? If not I'll have a check with some restaurants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
