Our Springer club had an explosively-launched net, probably 40' x 60' which we would set up wherever there was a mess of pigeons. and we could get permission from the land owner (good luck with that today!). A favorite spot was a granary near the Zilwaukee bridge. Best shot ever was about 450 birds. Depending on whether or not the birds came down, we either came home with a bunch of birds or a hangover.
It's probably a good thing that we didn't know about histoplasmosis - a disease carried in pigeon poo which may case blindness
