Do you ever use more than two rotary machines?
Pigeon shooting: I’ve seen you sometimes use two rotary machines. Have you ever used more than two, and if so why?
Pigeon shooting
PETER THEOBALD
I draw the line at two machines, if only because of the logistics (not to mention the expense) of lugging more gear out to the hide.
I cannot think of any situation where more than two would be beneficial, particularly as pigeons are becoming more wary of these machines as it is.
If anything, I try to rely on them even less, going back to old fashioned fieldcraft, whenever I can.
