    Yesterday saw me travel down to Davids to do a spot of pigeon shooting. We set up first of all on a partly cut rape field but soon discovered that the birds were heading for a barley stubble, so we packed up and moved to the barley stubble. The shooting was slow but very enjoyable as the birds decoyed in perfect text book fashion , curling into the wind and gliding into the kill zone We both shot well and ended the session on 54 birds , not all picked as some dropped in standing corn behind us. A really enjoyable days shooting mate .............cheers

    Bipod is best as you are a lot steadier but sticks are very valuable where theres a lot of cover .

    Phone rang last nite " Are you coming out Ive just seen a fox whilst out for a walk with wor lass " Never one to refuse an offer , my mate picked me up and we arrived on the shoot at about 8.30 pm. We lay in wait in a set a side field below the gorse where the fox was spotted. I called a few times but nothing showed except a few hares ambling about and a roe doe which unfortunately was not accompanied by a buck As it was getting dark we entered the gorse field , my mate got set up on the sticks and I squeaked by hand for about 30 seconds ,suddenly I just saw a flash of orang

    .243 is not illegal in England or Scotland mate As for the head shot the buck was standing in long vegetation with only its head showing............. Confidence in your ability is the name of the game

    Well yesterday saw me and David travel to my ground to try for Scottish roebucks , seeing as he let me shoot one of his Yorkshire bucks On arrival we set off down the valley and wasnt long before we got into a buck feeding out nicely in a quiet meadow where I have never seen deer before .I got on my bipod and was looking through long grass , I placed the crosshairs on his neck , fired and off ran the buck . Cursing I realised that the bullet must have deflected off the vegetation , a denial shot really , should know better Anyway the buck galloped off , but I followed him in the cr

    I was kindly invited by David last night to try for a roebuck on his patch in Yorkshire . I have never shot deer in Yorkshire before so was full of anticipation. We lay in wait but nothing showed at first , until a young doe appeared , her foxy red coat glistening in the glorious sunshine.We watched her feed for a while before she melted away into the cover. We waited and it was starting to get dark so we stalked down further to where there was some young trees , as we stalked along the edge I spied a buck feeding away from us , so it was rifle on sticks a little shout for the bu
