Well this is just the best pigeon shooting video on the internet. What a lovely, modest guy. An expert in his field, no question about that. Thanks so much for such a professional and sporting video TGS.
What an epic video, nothing but knowledge, humility, and information, probably one of the best Pigeon Videos on UA-cam to date, stand up and take a Bow.!
So glad I found this on UA-cam. Not done much decoying but getting more opportunities. Learnt a lot from my own mistakes but this definitive honest guide from somebody who really has the knowledge will be a holy grail for a lot of people ( including myself) just starting out in the art of decoying. Thank you so much.👍
What a pleasure to watch full of really useful information and what a refreshing change to some of the other so called experts. Thanks to you both for sharing.
So much knowledge, these people are gold dust. Their skill and dedication should be recorded so others may learn. When I saw 1hour run time I did wonder. But the time went so quick, thoroughly enjoyed ever minute. I will watch it again
I agree with everything said. I’d not normally bother with a video this long but this was fantastic and a trip down memory lane for me especially when he brought out the HH Decoys - I’ve still got 5/6 stuffed with foam to keep them in shape and they’re kept at the farm in an old home brew fermenting barrel carefully wrapped. They used to come with small balloons that you’d insert into the body then fill with air ( yep! by mouth😅 until they were firm ) - best decoys ever until the rubber started to age. And yes I remember in the 70’s and 80’s I seemed to be walking or cycling everywhere and decoying equipment had to be light to get it across ploughed fields etc and I was forever tinkering/modifying some bit of equipment to make life easier - I’d forgotten all that until I watched this video. Paul is the natural successor to Archie Coates and his wealth of knowledge and dedication to the sport is astonishing - and he wears it lightly. Look forward to the next one.
Great video! This, and the first one, are two of my favorite hunting videos. I had the great pleasure of shooting pigeons with Paul last month. Like in this video, much of the joy for me was in learning the field craft. Jonny does a great job capturing what it’s like to spend a day hunting with Paul. He’s an expert on pigeons, an excellent shot and a very fine gentleman!
I would buy that book! Everything from weather, equipment, set up, acquiring land permission...the chapters could be endless and extremely informative.
What an awesome video! I grew up rabbit hunting with an older gentleman and his dogs, probably because holding 5-6 beagles back from doing their jobs was a job in itself. But his knowledge of rabbits simply amazed me when in the field, as he had been hunting rabbits for 40+ years. Sorry to ramble on but this brings back memories, thanks Johnny
Absolutely spot on the best video I have ever watched about pigeon shooting well done Johnny and Paul a real masterclass!! I've got a shotkam gen 4 I've got to say what a great piece of kit for looking back at your shooting adventures and also there brilliant if your struggling with certain shoots which happens quite a lot!
This reminds me of how I started with my Dad and his lab. He had permission on a farm and worked at B&B so often afternoons in summer holidays meant I would go along and help set up and shoot his sbs. I only appreciate now how lucky I was.
@paulpayne1264 cheers Paul, it was supposed to be in May/June but back trouble meant sitting in a hide all day wasn't looking good... even with a cushion taped to the seat 🤣 Great video, informative and entertaining, can't wait now 👍
This is a great video, JC and crew. I’ve tried decoying myself a couple times and the pigeons just flew nearby my patterns, pissed themselves and turned away before they were in range. This is super helpful knowledge from a pigeon master. 🎉
excellent video. There is something in here for shooters at all levels. And thanks for the tip on the Shotkam sale. About to order 2 for my mate and I through your link
Very good! A couple of things I don’t agree with but on the whole gold dust advice, air pressure thing was interesting, high or low which is best? Also I don’t know a farmer that’s happy about watching pigeons/letting them build up, they want them kept off, if you leave 300 pigeons for three days and shoot on the fourth day and shoot a hundred, yes you’ve had a great day but you’ve left all those pigeons undisturbed feeding hard, he would rather you went everyday all day and shot 25 but kept them off
Hi, low pressure is better as with high pressure the birds are lazy and feeding late so more bunched up , I can see both sides, but if you keep chasing pigeons about they become decoy shy so your bags will become less but still get the damage, so if you let them settle then shoot- dead ones don’t come back!
Thanks Paul, I know what you mean, and I totally agree but a farmer I know had a lad tell him he was ‘letting them build up’ he doesn’t shoot there anymore 😂
I have been asked many times over the years to do a book by some of the uk,s top sportsman but people don’t seem to read books these days and Archie coats/ Peter Theobald have written the best out there so I would be trying to re invent the wheel in a way, many thanks to you, Paul 🤝
I worked at the Shot Show New Orleans in 1992,taking a break from the stand I found a camouflage firm called Bee a Tree and they were marketing suits with branches and twigs built in,the most bizarre stuff i`ve ever seen.they were also selling a camouflaged campsite toilet called the Camp site Buddy which looked like a tree stump.
Great vid, really informative and useful. My days in the hide never have such big numbers. Any advice for shooting live quarry instead of clays. Clays im always around 75-80% real pigeons if i hit 1 in 3 shots its a good day.?
Hi Paul. Have looked on several sites but still can’t find the net like yours, don’t suppose you have a website where you purchased yours from… ? Thanks…
Hi, unfortunately no as I have had mine 30 odd years now, have you looked into ex army second hand stores, mine was one light colour when I brought it, I then added abit of green from an old net wich breaks the colour up, Paul
I've got the same hide poles, and still think they are the best on the market. Quite agree with the silly plastic loops on the top of too many poles, that just get in the way. I had a 'Dead Cert' too, and, until the magnet came out, it was a great tool, especially up in a standing crop. One of the best pigeon tutorials I've seen - though I still think shooting sitting down is the best way: you can look over the hide, and the first bird is dead before it sees any movement.
@@paulpayne1264 Well Paul think Ed Solomons designed the beard trimmer and Ed Lyons is the optometry Guru.😈 whatever a great film.Sach becoming the Spielberg of the shooting field.👌
@@paulpayne1264 hi Paul I for sure will keep watching I love the video's :D I liked the calmness of you explaining the how what and where, great shooting and all the gear :D many of my friends are veterans in going to the UK for pigeon hunting but for me the opertunity never came to tag along but I am looking more and more to make the leap over the canal to give it a go but with prices rising and good the bad and the ugly out there I am looking for good place to go and i will find it someday all the best to you hope to see more video's you 2 were a good couple 😉
Hi, I have shot in them many times over the years, in Archie coats days I don’t know if light nets were available but I have always found them very much restricted view, but nice and warm on cold winter days, Paul
@@tgsoutdoors what does he think about decoy floaters and flappers? What decoys and rigs does he preferre? ( he obviously hangs them up in the style of Chris green) does he do lofting? So many man. ...
Fantastic video👍 Have to disagree at 20:38 as Crows and Pigeons in my area happily mix on flattened crop. Crow's definitely dont dominate an area. Crows must be more tolerant North of the Border.
Nice to have a pro give out some honest advice, and what a knowledgable man is Paul. What gun did he have Johnny? Any chance of a video with Ant in, they're always the funniest?
Looks more like a kreigoff "parcour " gun. not got seperate barrels like K80 ? And did i see same guy shooting pigeons with a miroku grade 5 think a model 60 with 32 barrels on u tube a while back ?@@tgsoutdoors
Why Are Bag Limits So High? In Kentucky daily bag limits: Quail - 8 Grouse - 4 Rabbit - 4 Most ducks - 5 or 6. Electric and most moving decoys are illegal
Wood Pigeons are an agricultural pest, they need to be controlled as the numbers are so high. If you go out ad shoot a handful this just pushes the problem to a neighbouring farm, so large numbers (a small percentage of the local resident population) need to be taken to limit damage. In areas where there are less pigeons, significantly less are shot, however in the arable centres of Britain, regular large bags need to be taken. Winter is still the biggest killer of pigeons, but with milder winters and more intensive agricultural cycles, the population continues to rise.
Birds fall from the window ledge above mine, than they flap their wings at the last second. And if I don't get up and walk across the room and peer down below, I won't won't see their last second curve toward a horizontal flight.
Decathlon don’t sell any decoys/ hide poles/ netting or any hunting equipment anymore in the UK They sell the odd bit of country clothing but unfortunately they’ve got rid of all the decent stuff
Hi, yes that’s true, from what I’ve heard decathlon put something about thrush shooting on their website and had lots of complaints so dropped uk shooting equipment 😢
Loved the video, but this is an area I'd have liked to hear more about. I stopped shooting pigeons over decoys when my local game dealer stopped taking them. I loved the shooting and saw the damage they were doing, but couldn't be happy with killing them just for crop protection with no onward route into the food chain. Even before that, I was concerned at the potential for spoilage resulting from dead birds being left out in the sun or piled up in the hide. Given all the kit sold for pigeon shooters, it has always surprised me that there's nothing designed to help get the birds to the dealer/larder in the best condition possible, and precious little advice available either.
Hi, my advice to keep birds in good condition is keep them out in the field and in the breeze even in sunlight as you get less flies out in the open than you will in the shade and never pile them up or they will go green quickly in hot weather 👍
I enjoyed the video overall, but its interesting how decoyer's views differ. I consider myself an experienced shooter, but disagreed with Paul on a few points. I'm sure if you were to make a similar video with Anthony Poolman, his views would also differ. Just because someone is successful, it doesn't mean they are correct on every viewpoint they have.
Pigeons get eaten and taste very nice . Lead isn’t a pollutant and is spread very vastly over the field . Much worse to eat a field of crops next to a busy road with all the pollution than someone shooting legally
Well this is just the best pigeon shooting video on the internet. What a lovely, modest guy. An expert in his field, no question about that. Thanks so much for such a professional and sporting video TGS.

I see, thanks. I understand now, you maybe should talk about that in the beginning, I think some are shocked by the numbers.
