What do most of your guy use out there for your Birds, Bob Traps or Drop/Sputnik Traps??????????

currently using a 4ft sputnik but switching to a bricon system in 2010 so trapping will likely be different in the spring.

I currently use A bob trap But I have plans for a drop trap

[Jazzman]

I've tried both. With bobs, I trained and trained, and some still hesitate. With the drop trap they basically learned on their own. For me, drop traps from here on out.

I have found the drop trap to be the most sucessful and efficent way to teach and train birds to come in to the loft fast.

My homemade drop sputnik trap. Birds learn in a day.

I have a Sputnik trap and a drop trap. Most of my young birds learn to enter before they even start to loft fly without the use of a training cage. I usually start leaving them on the landing board a few days before I weaned them out. This allows them to get to know the outside surrounding, get some sun and learn how to get back in. And under constant supervision from me cause a few will fly down to the ground, go on the loft roof to kickback or attempt to fly across to our house roof....
