si brown 8,486 Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 well its been a while since ive been to the dairy as its my winter rat bashing perm of choice... and the rabbits are usually limited to the open fields but tonight I went up for the last hour or so of light and took the lamp just in case any of the fields were doable! bumped into the farmer and had a chat and he said his mrs is well pi55ed off with the rabbits and to go and see her she's never been keen on me shooting the paddocks while there are horses about but thats gone out of the window for now! this is the top part where all the jumps are and the animals say out all night and behind this is a race corse round a big field. first rabbit of the night fell at just over 50 from the lane before I got to the fields first shot... then I had two sitter shots and fully fluffed them not sure why cos they were both easy and no rush!! only took one out of the main paddock and couldn't retrieve it cos it flipped into the brush and fully upset the horses so it stayed there,, all hell broke loose and I thought a horse had bolted an dived in a ditch but then a mixy rabbit came charging at me covered in shit and soaking, so I breathed a sigh of relief and fecked off into the back loop, soon as I climbed the gate there was a bugs staring at me at about 20 so I dropped him leaning on a gate post! just as I got to the back of the loop there was a sitter flattened to the deck thinking I couldn't see him so he got a freehand express to the napper at about 20! walking back up the lane I saw one in a maize field and reckoned he holidayed on there land so he copped for shot of the night at 62 off the pod! four in the bag during daylight and not a sniff of anything on the lamp, all I saw was a heron on the pond and a few hares but there a no no on estate land all the rabbits are laid out the nicest way, the jsb express hit home with a fair old clout cheers si 10 Quote Link to post
