Just a question on imping gos tails. Obviously its best to use the feathers from the same bird but if these aren't available would feathers feathers from say a wood pigeon be adequate? Cheers 

I no a lad in durum who mite have some tail feathers if you could pic them up , I’d have message him see if he has any old ones knocking about

Yes they would defo be a good option but for me hard to come by as not many people with harrisses in my area so looking for other options which would work pretty good. Just wondering what other people have used which has worked for them. Cheers 

They are the most easily obtained hawk feathers, you can usually buy them or someone would post a set to you. Definitely the most suitable, I heard of someone that used to fit a Harris tail to his gos at the beginning of the season and always had a full set at the end of it.
