been shot in the chest and face with a shotty at distance years ago , also got a bust jaw while playing tug of war with a gun barrell in my hand (scary moment).
its the long distance shots that scared me tho , me and a pal was climbing over a fence and the top bar of the fence shattered and spintered everywhere , our friendly keeper was a top shot with the rifle
needless to say it gets them nowhere , most people just go back and do all there birds or livestock ( so ive been told).
no need to poach round me tho as i have plenty of permission these days.
poaching is bad
