Andy Crow is out to stop pigeons hitting a maize crop – and sometimes that means there’s nowhere to put the meatloaf. He is decoying and shooting pigeons with Frederic Hanner on a farm in Kent. Meanwhile, we ask the question: what’s the most effective catapult ammunition for shooting birds and animals? Wayne Martin tests out his theories on ballistic gel. David presents the news on the News Stump, and Charlie brings you Hunting YouTube, all in this week’s #FieldsportsBritain
