Just a write up of last Sunday, I was lucky enough to get a chance to shoot with Ian on his permission, I travelled there with 2 lads from my neck of the woods, Gareth and Richard set up 2 fields away from us, Ian set up bird scares on the middle maize strip, and we set up on the third strip, Ian set us up with the wind at our backs, large umbrella with the hide built round it, set in the open facing a hedge row with the maize strip between us, it was a little slow to start with, but picked up after about a hours, the birds mostly came from behind us and to the left, the swung round over the edge row and into the decks, a great sight, my shooting was iffy to say the least to start with and Ian was nailing everything, Ian thought my seat was the problem ( fishing chair) being to low, sat on Ian's chair while he was having his lunch, I nailed 5 on the bounce, Ian got his spare chair of his truck for me, shot a lot better on it, Ian was great company in the hide, very knowledgeable, gave me a few really good tips, especially let them commit to coming in, we kept Ian's springer Jess reasonable busy in the afternoon, finished with 52 woodies and 8 ferals, fantastic day with great company, many thanks Ian, hope I can do it again, cheers Gary. PS I've order a new chair Ian lol

Does any one know of any game dealer in the northwest, that will take rabbits, pigeons etc,

could u om the details please

Hi I,m struggling to find any perms, was wondering if anyone, would help me out with a day on the pigeons and crows, I,m 53 self employed, just getting back into shooting after a 20 absence. I,ve got my own kit, I,m based in Manchester, willing to travel, share petrol costs, cheers Gary

to many armchair experts on ere, just wanting to criticise, if ur not interested leave the lad alone, go and play with ur xbox,

hi just a prelude to what I wrote after speaking to UK I,m trying them out thurs, UK promised to replace broken rods, received them today, many thxs to UK, hopefully I,ll be eating my words thurs and raving about the H FLAPS

spoke to ukshootwarehouse today, they were helpful, no problem if I send them back, convinced me to give them a try, which will be next week, will let u know how they go on, thanks for the comments, as for they are more robust than they look, well I hope they are cos they look very flimsy,

just bought a pair of hypa flap decoys off ukshootwarehouse, I,ve got to say they are without doubt the poorest quality things I,ve ever seen, held together with staples, they sent 4 rods with them, they bent them to get them into the box, when I opened 2 were snapped, cost me £47 including delivery, tried phoning 4 times, left a message, no response, I know they are the sites sponsors, I even quoted the discount code when ordering but got nowt knocked off, all I can say lads avoide like the plauge, if the last more than 1 trip out I,ll be amazed,

thxs for the info mate

shotgun, eley vip cartridge

been out this morning, just had my first ever misfire, not a nice feeling, waited ages till I opened the gun, the firing pin had nailed it dead centre, its now at the bottom of a deep pond.

Thxs mate

thxs guys for the advise, are the fields easy enough to find with the gps details u get

Just got a application form, was wondering if its practical and worth while traveling to their fields, and if u do are they over shot or do they normally manage their shoots well. I,ve read up on them and it seems a good idea , but obviously wouldn,t be practical to do recon on the fields being so far away. any info would be welcome,

Anyone from the Manchester area in the NPPC, I,m thinking of joining, is it practical to travel to their fields, it sounds a great idea, just would like to get some advise from someone in it, also if anyone from my area in the NPPC would consider me if I join to shoot together, could share driving/ petrol expenses, cheers Gary

Posted my shotgun application on boxing day, had my interview today, cert in the post, Manchester firearms team very efficent
