BellySlater 15 Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Just taken delivery of some pigeon decoys.. Bit of a case of all the gear and no idea i'm afraid. Pigeon is rapidly becoming one of my favorite meats but I am struggling to get a lot due to them having eyes and ears like god knows what. I always see the arse end of one after it's flown. :wallbash: Very Very clever birds I guess. :notworthy: I've decided to try and decoy them so I could really do with some pointers on how to set them out, i've been told they don't like their backsides facing the wind ? any pointers would be a great help, thanks in advance Belly Quote Link to post
