  1. Well I was out today on the drillings again , I was like a Minneapolis copper thinning out the blacks ?? I didnt start off too well shooting a bit erratic but once I pulled myself together didnt do too bad. I was out for crop protection but there was a second good reason too as there was 7 lapwings and 4 curlew in the field I was shooting so a bit of a helping hand for them too. I picked 126 birds including a crow I found after I had packed up that a buzzard had feasted on. Lost a few birds so imagine must have shot around 140. Great day as birds decoyed text book style and I managed 10 right

  14. I thought it was very poignant and classy . Brought a tear to my eye.
  15. Shame you never got a result SL. I arrived at my ground at 6pm and immediately glassed a fox on a gorse bank out in the sunshine ? I got talking to the shepherd and he said he often sees a pair there so this is where I headed. I put the caller on and straight away a pair appeared and started play fighting with each other, shot a dog fox 180 yds so a good start. I then went in search of a buck and bumped an old lad who made the mistake of stopping at the wood and looking over his shoulder, awkward shot but I managed to drop him with a base of neck shot at 150 yds off my quads ? I then went la
  16. Yep we get oystercatchers on our shoot which must be 25 mile inland
