  2. This was posted by a friend of mine from Donegal: A boat was docked in a tiny Donegal fishing village remotely situated on the coast of Ireland. An American tourist complimented the local fishermen on the quality of their fish and... asked how long it took to catch them. "Not very long" they answered in unison. "Why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" The fishermen explained that their small catches were sufficient to meet their needs and those of their families. "But what do you do with the rest of your time?" "We sleep late, fish a little, play with

  3. I went to a simulated day with a mate who hadn’t done much shooting . First drive he burnt is finger on the barrels and got a big blister . The second drive was in the grouse butts and the clays were coming at you , a shard of clay hit him on his bald head and blood started pouring out . By the last drive his shoulder was black and blue and he couldn’t mount the gun . He said“ f@ck this for a game of soldiers “, I don’t think he’s shot since .??

  4. This is why “The Hunting Life” is so great. A lad goes out, goes hunting and catches a bunch. Lots of people tell him all of the reasons he shouldn’t have gone out and why they didn’t go out and what terrible things could happen if he goes out again. ?

  5. Funnily enough i found the opposite. The better at clays i got the worse at shooting anything live i got. I have found that shooting pigeon and crows gets me back into the swing quite nicely. Luckily i have some good pigeon and crow shooting and it is free. I started my daughter shooting last year because she said she had wanted to for years. I took her several times to a localish clay shoot and she liked it. I took her last week on the pigeons and crows which she really liked but she said this is nothing like clays. She said "it is a lot faster, they are harder to hit and clays don'

  12. I have to admit that I love clay shooting, trap (all disciplines), skeet and sporting, both my wife and myself shoot at Beverley shooting ground which is one of the best trap clubs in the uk. We always have a few weeks every year at John Bidwells place, Highlodge, in Suffolk, stunning lodges around a lake so the fishing rods are always set up ready for a couple of hours on the carp, the lure rod for the perch and a few carp as well as they will take tiny grub lures, I take the air rifle as well for a bit of fun on the woodland layout and best of all one of the top sporting clays venues in t

  18. I will admit that on my wedding night I knocked the back out of the wife and she said no more after a while. I was so off my nut and with a knob like a scaffolding pole I went into the back bedroom and jumped into bed with her mother and husband ? breakfast the next morning was a strange experience ?

  19. You did the right thing mate, if you arnt confident and have little knowledge then you had no other option. Lad I lamped with many moons ago had a bull x that needed stitches pretty regular. Trust me when you’ve done it once you be ok.

  26. I watched a feller shooting clays with the gun out of his shoulder and with arms stretched out forward! Hit them though. I asked him how he developed his gun mount?! He said "I hate recoil, make my shoulder hurt". It only takes a poor fitting gun or a rushed and wrong mount to cause a good bruising.

  33. I have an opinion on handling and swinging a shotgun. I’m probably going to get shot to pieces for saying this , but here goes . Unless you have done a lot of shooting and put the hours in at the clay ground or a lot more hours in live quarry shooting, then you probably haven’t really developed muscle memory and a real feel for what kind of fit and swing you prefer . Most shotguns have standard stock dimensions that will fit most people and unless you are unusually tall or fat or short, then they should be ok . I’m 6,2” and I could pick up and shoot nearly every shotgun I handle. I would advi
