Lez325 Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 (edited) Nice shootin Tex I love sillosocks- cant beat them in my book- Ive just bought the Hypaflaps and Magnet to complete the set- well worth the money Les Edited July 31, 2009 by Lez325 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burt Babolski Posted July 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 yes i also brought the hypaflaps too the seem to be brilliant in the garden on trial didn't use them as the pigeons on this permission of mine seem to have been wary in the past so gonna try them on my other permission first all in all hope they work as well as the socks!

chrispti Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Nice one Where the birds committing to the decoys or just passing over and having a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burt Babolski Posted July 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 they were fully committed to the pattern at quite a constant flow the wind was from behind hide basic horse shoe pattern and the socks are big when it wind blows through them and they move well on the fine metal stake and it seems that the birds saw them from a long way off very effective at catching their eye. i did also buy the heads to go with the socks as the black head didn't look to convincing to me but i'm not a pigeon and they didn't seem to worry, so not sure if i will put them on at mo.
