Cranfield Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Do you mean the Sillosock 3D pigeon head ? If so, they look OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 i've got 'em on my hyperflaps - much better than the old flat no see from above head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancs Lad Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 IMO, this is a gimmic type of product. A bit like the ACME pigeon caller. Save your money for some more decoys and get a few more socks, by the time the birds get there you should be shooting them anyway. It would be nice if these came as a "standard" bit of kit for the socks, like the new mounting point for those that need a bit more confidence.

Beardo Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 (edited) they do now come as standard with sillos' - hence why my new hypers have them (and my old sillos don't). i don't think i'd bother buying them as an 'upgrade' though. But they do show the neck bars much nicer than the flat heads Edited June 19, 2009 by nickbeardo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lez325 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 My shooting buddy has 10 socks and a pair of Hypa flaps on the magnet- worked very well last night - without the rubber heads just a gimmick is my opinion Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlander, Ive been given the authority to let a secret out of the water. ******** ** are launching a special product at the Scotland Game fair next week, its a pheromone based complex that we have been working on which gets into the air stream. Research has concluded that pigeons **** more when they are in a heavy feed and the chemicals leach into the air - the more pooh, the more chemicals. This stuff is a concentrate which is pushed into the air with a spray and can be spread around your decoys. We have been working with manufacturers in the fishing industry and specialists in the field of Chemoreceptors, checmicals that trigger feeding activity and "pulling power". Intial tests have been very positive...... I look forward to revelaing the "secret" at the game fair. Please feel free to pop along to the tent.

henry d Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Henry d,Maybe you should come and see us at the show next week but some how don't think so, no internet cafe there mate . Been there, done that(since 1993) and this year will be my first miss and to be honest I`d prefer to eat someone elses earwax than see the same old ugly pusses again. The problem is that with money and sporting interests is the same as politicians, as soon as money comes into the mix friendships and a common good goes straight out of the window, see our Fife/Aberdeenshire cousins or deako and Will B. Tell me it isn`t so....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
