Cranfield Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I have a pair of hypa flaps and they work well (certainly make the rotary battery last), but I still prefer a pair of dead birds especially on very windy days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinxs Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'm thinking of getting a pair, wheres the cheapest place to get them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfowler-2007 Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I got two new hypa-flap magnets at the start of last month had them out on a number of day's and dont like what i have seen i think the pigeons where not to keen on them Also field tested the socks in the spring not keen on them either its all about choice i know some shooters that think there is nothing better So for me its now back to the good old magnets and the dead birds only think they we weigh 4 times the weight of the hypa flap magnets lol Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 dead birds are best, but hyperflaps are probably the best of the magnet decoys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zapp Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I use hypa flaps until I have dead birds for the rotary, but agree that they are the best I have come across. If you have problems with the birds veering off, try putting the magnet 10 yards further forward of the pattern and make your pattern a little denser by reducing the spacing (easier once you have a few shot birds). I have found this works because the birds dont get close enough to the rotary to get spooked, because the pattern being "loud and clear" because it is denser is what they concentrate on, once they are on their "landing run".

Alanl50 Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Hi I have both the Airpro and the Hypa Flaps--------- Go with the Hypa flaps there the best decoys going but change to dead birds when you have shot some, You cant beat the real thing You can see the change in the commitment of the birds when you got the real ones on Regards Alan Hypa Flaps all the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
