Shortly before the lockdown Geoff Garrod was out after pigeons that were damaging young oilseed crops - unable to shoot them over the crop he decides to intercept the marauders on a strip of maize cover crop that lies between the two big oilseed fields.
He took the opportunity to compare two types of Eley cartridges - regular lead shot in Pigeon Select and Pigeon HV, and the new steel loads with the eco-friendly wad. It starts slowly, but before long the pigeons are piling into the decoys, and he ends up with a bag of just over 100, with some bonus crows too. - Sport
The Shooting Show should make episodes just about Geoff's moustache. What a beauty!
Thank you Shooting Show, Geoff is making lockdown bearable for people who love to be outdoors!
I felt like he was playing the duck hunt video game 🤔.. what an accuracy! He should be participating in the Olympics 🤘👏👏
Will definitely be paying more attention to wad selection. I’m sure landowners will appreciate not having to deal with more plastic garbage in the fields. Also agree 100% on gentleman’s remarks about steel shot. A lot of the old timers lament the passing of lead, but once adjustments are made the steel can be capable of doing the job and so we just move on.
Outstanding shooting Geoff, don't see much let down when switching to steel. I really get into the barrel cam, could not ask for a better teacher on holding lead.
Mr. Geoff is one of the best shooters, calm and confident , thanks Mr. Geoff , really u enjoyed my eyes of this 👍
EXCELLENT video!! And...your theory about not shooting large numbers is spot on. Furthermore, the experience is about making a good number of fine shots - not about piling up empty hulls!
Good theory on the big groups, and you are RIGHT in action as well. Works the same for ducks and geese. Can't be trigger happy if you want good shoots.
his accuracy is ridiculous. Never seen someone shoot like that. His dog is so cool too
11:01 Waagggh! As good a statement as could be made. Congratulations Geoff!
Another great video from you guys and Geoff never disappoints as usual,keep up the good work.
Absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work.
Good to see a proper comparison between lead and steel , 👍👍
Love Eley shells but they have to get the price down from £90 for £250 down to the £60 cost that I pay for VIP Steel. Great video
Great show guys
Good show tonight lads,keep it up
Great work 👍🏻
And...I just love your hunting buddy!
Great triples , good shooting as usual 😋
How is he so accurate 😂 would love to spend a day with him and try to learn
Huge respect my friend.... amazing accuracy! It looks like birds are dropping from the sound... :):)
Great shooting, some nice trembles, enjoyable video
Great Video 👏👏👌🏻👍
That was a lot of shooting.... wonderful. Nice to show the occasional miss with the follow up shot. Real shooting rather than only the hits.... and all these lovely birds are going to the pot I presume. What's the favorite recipe?
Very interesting video
Makes it look easy, great shooting.
All ways interesting to see shot cam footage.. Makes me realise I'm just not giving enough lead. Entertaining watch 😀
Just brilliant Mr. Garrod. Could watch that all day. James M on camera?

Did you change chokes when switching to steel? I've been told that steel vs. lead, you go one choke down with steel from what you use lead pattern wise. Example is modified for lead, I would need to go improved cylinder with steel to get same pattern I got with lead. Thanks, I hope that made sense and someone can answer.
I’m going to be using steel cartridges for the first time and I’ve been told to go up two shot sizes. I normally use 32g 6s for pigeons, so that would be 32g 4s in steel. Anybody know if this is correct?
good video, as always ! Can you tell me the name of the "shelf" geoff has, to put his phone and cartridges on, and where to find it please? (i live in france)
good shooting Geoff....I'm a big fan of yours now
great!
Garrod, as usual a great video!
Question:
I heard that you using in this video a 1/2 choke on your shot gun, is that what you mostly use for pigeon hunting?
If I'm using steel shots, then I take one number bigger size of pellets as with lead - how you handle that?

Great shooting Geoff, way to knock them down!
Good shooting Geoff..👍
Hi Peter,
I have a question for yo u. I've been shooting clays for about a year and a half & I 'd quite like to have a go at the pigeons. I am a BASC member but I'm struggling to find a shoot locally (Surret\Sussex\Kent). Could you (or Geoff) give me any tips on how to find a shoot please?
Also, where is the best place to dispose of the pigeons (supposing i manage to shoot more than i can eat)? I understand a game dealer or country butcher would buy them, but I don't know if many locally, so what's the bestest to.find interested parties? Indeed, is it usually to offer the farmer a share of any profit, or split the money?I
Very basic questions i know, but I can't find an answer online, so.thought I'd ask.
Thanks for another great show (I particularly enjoy watching Geoff on the pigies).Keeping me sane in the land of lockdown.
Cheers
Greg
what were those leaves you ate? What plant?
what 12 gauge shot gun do u recommend for skeet shooting??
Hi Geoff what hide net do you use chap
Are Wood Pigeons something you also eat or is more as pest control?
Which choke are you using please?
Before lockdown 😂😂😂 i dont think theres a promblem going hunting on lockdown in some states
What do you do with all them pigeons
What choke does geoff use??
noticed you aint wearing a safety glasses
Nice video, very inspirational. I'm Indonesian air gunner.

Lol... "before lockdown.. honest govner" 🤭👍
Nowt wrong with genuine crop protection during lockdown... perfectly acceptable and entirely legal.
Bloody good shot that lad.

G's, how many pigeons does the UK have, that man eradicates them all, it seems.
