- Pest control is an essential part of farming. We’ve arrived here this afternoon to try and help control the fast growing population of Feral pigeons that are eating, and messing all over stored crops!
Best Catapult company I have dealt with to date. Ordered the forester kit on Tuesday, arrived the next day. Everything is perfect. Highly recommend Wayne's Catty gear.
Thanks very much mate! Glad you’re pleased with everything 👍
What is the perception there about hunting pheasants, pigeons, rabbits, etc. with slingshots? What about the perception of the use of slingshots?!. There are people saying that we in Korea should regulate their use, or that it is animal abuse, etc.?!. Please answer?.
Wow, this video showcases some incredible slingshot skills in action! The accuracy and precision needed for hunting with a slingshot is truly impressive. It's not just about the thrill of the hunt but also the respect for nature and the environment. Kudos to the hunter for demonstrating great marksmanship while enjoying the outdoors. This video is a perfect blend of adventure and appreciation. Sir can you pin my comment?
Love this ..what is the thickness of the bands you use. I'm going to see if any farms need pest control as well.
Lol Matt be anchoring the dam pouch right to his eyeball.
Fantastic shots! Which taper and thickness would you usw for 8 mm Steel?
Hello mate met you in ten pin Southampton today nice to meet yah 👍
Hey mate! Yeah good to meet you man, glad you stopped to say hello 👍
Brilliant'' thank you for putting this video on i really enjoyed it and the Sussex Catty Club Video Excellent ' im still on the mooch with me EVO'' which has really improved my Shot Many thanks to you Wayne and Matt
Just received my evo field pro from across the pond and I absolutely love it . The straight wrist design of the evo is the way to go ! Thanks for the content and for designing a solid product.
Just received my EVO and am enjoying shooting with my wrist straight! This is my first metal catapult. I really love how the weight absorbs the recoil.
What slingshot do you use please or could you recommend me one for getting rid of ferral pigeons please... Best regards and stay safe
How would you recommend going about getting permission from land owners for pest control. And would you eat a feral
Can you go into any type of woods and use them or do you have to go on private land
Definitely good shots there lads I quite like 10 mm lead…….
Can practice with it all day long and get your eye in…….
and then go out and do some damage
Good idea to use the catch box so you can re-cast them round again but that’s all part of it
Which rubber thickness is best for pegion hunting ?
Slingshot takes some serious skills well done guys
What the name of the sling shot u are using and which sling shot brands do u recommend?
Brother try one of those air rifle things…🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣..filming is brilliant and it’s made me laugh so much my sides hurt…
I ordered a slingshot target box from you and it’s way better than ones sold on amazon. I always want to try hunting with slingshots but my worry is whether shooting animals like pigeons or squirrels is illegal in the UK?
Thank you. Yes, completely legal as long as you are on private land, with permission from the land owner to hunt / carry out pest control.
Great video guys.
Good stuff 👏🤘👍👊😎
Bub!
Cracking video ....some advice please I brought some of that green band of catty shack....I shoot 8 mm lead any suggestions on band cut.please? Gong chi...0.6
Cheers Nathan. I would use a 25/20 taper for 8mm lead. Active length will obviously depends on your draw length 👍
@@CattyShackHunter cheers Wayne I'll give that a shot,..by the way cracking bands.
Video was very well done! Thanks for putting out a stylishly country made show like this Whens the series coming out. This could be part of a pilot show episode.
Brilliant as allways
As down the glen one Easter morn
To a city fair rode I
There armed lines of marching men
In squadrons passed me by
No pipe did hum
No battle drum did sound its loud tattoo
But the Angelus Bells o'er the Liffey swells
Rang out in the foggy dew
Right proudly high in Dublin town
Hung they out a flag of war
'Twas better to die 'neath that Irish sky
Than at Sulva or Sud-El-Bar
And from the plains of Royal Meath
Strong men came hurrying through
While Brittania's Huns with their long range guns
Sailed in through the foggy dew
Their bravest fell and the requiem bell
Rang mournfully and clear
For those who died that Eastertide in the
Springing of the year
While the world did gaze with deep amaze
At those fearless men but few
Who bore the fight that freedom's light
Might shine through the foggy dew
And back through the glen, I rode again
And my heart with grief was sore
For I parted then with valiant men
Whom I never shall see n'more
But to and fro in my dreams I go
And I kneel and pray for you
For slavery fled, O glorious dead
When you fell in the foggy dew
Another Great video 👍👍 Good shooting guys 😀
Good shot guys! 398,000,000 more to go.
Well done!!Thanks for sharing guys.
Brilliant shots the pair of you.and honest with the occasional miss .gives the rest of us SOME hope.keep it up.love watching you and your mate matt hunting.
GREAT VID.
Love watching your content mate wish you would upload more frequently with these pest control and hunting rabbits pigeons ect 👍
I bin a shotgun and rifle shooter for ever but a pigeon with a catty is worth so much more. Good video m8 😁
👍👍👍💪
Another great day out. Thanks for sharing.
Love the content lad keep it up
Really good content! I always look forward to seeing what you upload next. Never a disappointment! Thanks!
Such a satisfying sound when you make good contact.
Good stuff ya!! Pal Matt nice shot buddy🎯🎯🎯🔥💯
Always enjoy your posts, hope you and your clan are keeping safe and well,and your four legged friend, Johnny moloney
Heya Wayne sorry to bother you I've been shooting 12mm steel today with the 0.85 great white cut 25/20 but feels really heavy and my accuracy is suffering really badly is there another cut I could get away with I'm only shooting 12mm steel because I can but them from my local shop its a lot easier them buying balls of the Internet and having to wait for them thank you
A 12mm ball is quite large, so really you will need a 25/20 of 0.85 to throw them well if it’s for hunting. You could drop the taper down to a 22/17, something like that, if you were willing to drop down to 11mm steel. Do you know your draw length, and what active length are you using?
@@CattyShackHunter my active is 13cm my draw length is 27 inches I divided that by 5.5 and it gave me 125mm active so for the sake of science I use a active of 130mm but 25/20 feels really heavy its for hunting at short range like 15m would be the max I'd shoot it at but I'm getting loads of hand shake I have watched your vid on shooting a heavy setup and with a straight wrist but still shaking
@@martinamarie231 your active is too short for Great White. The stretch ratio for Great White is 4.5 - 5, so try your active at 15cm, see how that feels, and adjust from there if needed.
@@CattyShackHunter thank you very much Wayne
@@martinamarie231 no problem 👍
Yhea catapults are very fun make my own natural forks ott with tubular cobra bands because this what I can get in shops close to me lasts 10 times longer than those blackwidow rubbish things and some of the other barnette catys shooting style gangster as they say definitely a more accurate way of shooting using your band to aim down like a barrel.🇬🇧
Top video & Top shooting 💯💯💯💯
Great shooting gents, enjoying the uploads!
great vedio lads look forward too next 1
Nice video and shots Wayne I love your videos and content. Cheers😀
Great shooting from you both 👍🏻
I might just about hit the barn door 😆👍
Haha! You’ll be right mate. We’ll get you sorted out 👍
@@CattyShackHunter I can see a training vid coming one day 😉
@@southsomersetferretersfiel5202 already have those mate haha. We’ll do it on a days ferreting 👍
What ammo are you guys using against feral pigeons please ?
Nice shooting!
Great shooting
First of all, the filming, editing, and commentary was absolutely brilliant! This is the kind of stuff that first got me interested in Catapults! Thanks for sharing brother! 👊🙏
Hell yea I give u a loik and sobscroooib xD
Brilliant video as usual Sir great watching
What size band u useing for 11 lead looking realy good 👍 👌
The shots outside were with 11mm steel. Only the shot inside was lead, to avoid any ricochets. But here I’m using 25/20 0.85. Usually to hunt in the winter, I use 25/17 1mm. Both bands are Catty Shack ‘Great White’ 👍
Good job guys love the cids
Awesome! I was wondering what exactly are you doing when moving the fork up and down just before releasing. I'm guessing that you gage the ammo drop. Would be cool to make a #short explaining that teknique.
I’m actually twisting a very small amount side to side, to make sure my bands are perfectly aligned together, so one is not sitting behind, or in front of the other, in relation to my eye. I only want to see the top edge of the top band, so doing this allows me to see exactly when the bottom band disappears exactly underneath the top band. Then I know they are perfectly aligned.
@@CattyShackHunter Actually after explaining it that way I realized that I also do that! Haha I'm a new shooter so it's a lot slower movement on my side hence it looks a bit different. Cheers Wayne and thank you for the response.
@@vekebg no problem Viktor, best of luck with your shooting 👍
What thickness of rubber are you using?
At 3:01 minute, with the missed shot, I think I heard a neighbour yell “OUCH, bloody hell” from the other farm over.
Doubtful, as we know exactly where we are and what’s behind. Or more to the point, what isn’t behind.
@@CattyShackHunter Was just joking and messing with you. Good hunting.
Just got one of your evos looking forward to hunt on monday🙌
What kind of speet and ft pounds are you getting with that 11mm steel and lead?? Nice shooting guys!!
About 250fps with steel and 225fps with lead. Equates to around 11.5 - 12ft lbs.
Another great video
Well done!
You need fx impact instead~
Hi mate u know where I could buy snares not sure if u sell them or not
U should make more wzyne
Does 11mm ammo do damage too the walls?
It didn’t this time, but then it went through a pigeon first. These barns do seem to be extremely thick though, so honestly I’m not sure. We have the go ahead to use it.
Very interesting guys, very good shooting.
I had a sling shot years ago, now a gun. I think I'll be investing in a sling again.
Regards from Dorset
Well done
Good shooting guys.
Are you supposed to kill stock doves
These aren’t stock doves.
Love videos like this man e keep it up 👍
Great shooting Guys, like the fact that you don't hide your misses
Great hunting and shooting. What bands and taper do you use.
Here I am using 25/20 0.85 Catty Shack ‘Great White’ band.
Some great shooting lads 👍
What set up frame is Mat using?,is that a sighting system he has put on his frame?
Pr3 with a Adjustable site
@@sussexcatapultclub1886 sorry for the trouble mate, how do you aim while holding the frame up straight,I would like to give it a go,I have been shooting gangster style and very good at it,How do do you use the reference point while holding the slingshot up right? It really looks good sto shoot like that I would like to learn to shoot like that
@@adventureboy4 It’s very easy I will have to do a video showing how it works 😁
@@sussexcatapultclub1886 that really would be very helpful cheers mate
Bloody brilliant. I do love a good catty hunt.
Tim Dillon changed his career
😂😂😂😂
Nice to see you didn’t send that gong into orbit 😝
We’re do you order your balls from
💓🌹👌
What's the rules and regulations for hunting in small game like this in the UK?
In America we use guns.
We do in England as well mate ,,, this is more challenging
How is feral determined in pigeons?
Id like to see you do a kill and cook crow. I know a few guys over your way who have cooked crow breast and say its amazing. Deep red meat.
Thanks bub!
Ferals live in and around populated areas. They’re also easily determined if you’re familiar with the plumage of the various varieties. Yeah, tbh we have spoken about doing a video on ‘branchers’ these are the only ones you’ll want to eat, or some I’m told. But as for a catch and cook video, it isn’t really my thing. I love cooking game, but in the kitchen. Never say never though!
@@CattyShackHunter Thanks bub! Try crow!
@@northeastslingshot1664 I wouldent eat a crow ,,,,,,,Rook pie was common years ago , rooks are more palatable.
@@manofkentcatapultsgunsando5069 100% Rook. There’s a Rookery on one of Matt’s permissions that we’re trying to catch right.
@@CattyShackHunter Its still horrible mate , stick to steak 👍💥🍺
Quite an ineffective way of vermin control and them near misses in and around them barns will be punching holes through the cement/ asbestos board.
Just a one bird for entire video? Not impress at all, even the shot was good. Give me more...!!!
2 birds
とても素晴らしいです。
鳩撃ち殺すの最高です。
鳩に恨みも因縁はないけど、ムカつくので一度殺してみたいと思ってました。
Not to be a hater but with an air rifle you would’ve had both the first two shot ezy ahaha but cool way of pest control
No worries at all mate, but that’s exactly why I don’t use an air rifle. Two easy shots for an air rifle, become two, fair, challenging, sporting shots with a catapult.
You've never tasted squab? You've never tasted pigeon soup? That is perhaps the most inefficient 'pest control' I've ever seen. If you knew how to raise pigeons you'd never go hungry. Shame on you!
Just get a rifle mate slingshots are unless.
Get a pcp boys 🤣🤣
