Really enjoyed the first 4 videos. Lots of great pointers when it comes to pigeon hunting. Like the complete package from blind to shot placement. Hope all attending have taken good notes there will be a practical test at the end :thumbup:

how many do you think will be getting strange looks as they walk around mumbling "toes, nose, trigger..toes, nose, trigger...."?

Thanks for sharing! Love hunting pigeons.
Btw, I haven't watched all of it so I'm not sure if they explain that in the video but this is not the regular pigeon who live on the farm. Those ones migrate just like waterfowl, they spend the summer in Europe and flight to Spain and Africa for the winter. Now with the warmer winters a few don't bother anymore but that was the norm. Anyway, when they start migrating they come by the thousands and you can see those huge flocks miles away. Looks like a dark cloud that moves up and down.... Pretty exciting when they come your way and land on top of you!

They dip, dive, twist, and turn like an oversized humming bird. If you become proficient on pigeons everything else is a piece of cake.
