Dave Barham and Terry Doe conduct a feral pigeon clean-up mission at the dairy farm, armed with night vision, thermal, and super accurate air rifles!
In this series on Shooting & Country TV, airgun legends Terry Doe and Dave Barham (editors of Airgun World and Airgunner magazines) will be hunting a range of quarry with air rifles, night vision and thermal spotters and scopes. From rabbits to squirrels, pigeons and rats, this six month series will cover all quarry you can hunt with an air rifle.
Episode 5 sees Terry and Dave embarking on a feral pigeon shoot at a dairy farm. Armed with air rifles, thermal spotters, a thermal scope, a digital day/night scope, and local guides Jim and Jeff, they can't go wrong!
The pigeons are in roosting in the rafters of the cow sheds, and the air rifles are ideal for safe shooting; both to avoid ricochet and to avoid upsetting the cows with loud bangs. It's a bumper night, with Terry and Dave working together to take down around 50 birds that have been causing a problem for the farmer on this feral pigeon control mission. Enjoy!
