The reason why I love to hunt in England!!

[LBJ 11]

When I have been visiting England to hunt, I never really had the time to hunt pigeons.

A friend of mine is a gamekeeper in Norfolk and invited me several times and finally we found one afternoon last year. I got 85 that day and then i was addicted.

I went to England again a couple of month later and had a really cracking day (well at least it was to me, because I dont have a place here in Denmark were i can shoot that many)

I arrived friday afternoon and asked if we should drive down to see if there was any pigeons.

There was "a few" as my friend said!!

 

So i was really looking forward to the next day....

The weather was fine, a little wind and a bit cloudy.

I started at 10 and finished 6 hours later.

That day gave me 188 pigeons and 1 "black bird" (sorry i dont know the english name for it)

Here is a few pic's of my very great day.

 

 

 

 

I think there is 174 on this picture, we found the rest when we walked around the hedges and small woods with the dogs.

 

I used 354 shots that day and i really cant wait to go back.

That was fantastic and thank you very very much to my friend for inviting me.
