Hunting-top-shots 2 Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 they are OK if it is pissing down and blowing a gail!! only problem is the pigeons are not on the move then. stay away from them worst things I have bought in YEARS!! Cheers HTS Quote Link to post
mj robson 8 Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 I bought 6 dozen last summer and the first day out I used them on a Rape stubble and the guy shot 92! I though they were going to be the dog's danglies. Since then I used them on several days when they certainly flaired birds off the pattern, and several experienced clients said they didn't think they were any good. I got the impression that they look good from a distance but crap up close, and the pigeons maybe think the same!!!! I started mixing them in with other decoys and dead birds but now I don't use them any more at all. Mark. Quote Link to post

Had some hypaflaps on a magnet the other day, brought the birds in, but as you say mark, they flaired off not commiting to the pattern... Removed Hypaflaps and they were diving in... Not entirely fair as you know what pigeons can be like around the magnets... Quote Link to post
