wag 13 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 went out yesterday morning with a mate on one of his fields he shoots, it was a lifted sugarbeet field and the farmer drilled it with wheat and they was still on it, so my mate was asked to shoot them off it before they did to much damage to the wheat . we had a great flight we shot 10 between us then packed up because it was to easy and there was not much sport in it , they were coming in like pigeons, so we shot what we wanted and then just kept spooking the rest off the field .

SS i know what your saying SS, when there in the area its nice to see them ,i dont like shooting them were there feeding but the farmer wanted it done, so it had to be done, whats the point in slaughtering them when theres no need to , we picked our shots and was very sensible about it, we set ourselfs a limit and stuck to it , i just hope there is still some around when you and sounder are over .

Just how it should be isn't it? Picking the better of the bunch and taking time with the shots, not blasting at every one that comes within range. Just not Cricket as they say. Farmer wanted them gone and the rest scared so what could you do in that respect but it was sensible as you say. And fingers crossed for January SS Quote Link to post Share on other sites

At least you are not shooting quarry cos you thinks its protected, its better than the alternative! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
