  4. Hi mate I might be putting on a 50 bird fully driven day on hopefully Monday 28th. We are in Nottinghamshire. I will keep you posted.
  5. Hi mate, if you can go for ex layers which have never seen the great outdoors yet ie kept back poults which the game farm will raise and use as this years layers. All they know is a pen and they hold very well compared to caught up hens. Feed them high protein pellet on arrival for a week or so then step down to a cheaper pellet for couple of weeks then slowly introduce wheat. Good multi vitamin and plenty of water.
  6. Hi, does anyone know of anywhere in notts where I can get some pigeon extreme?
  7. Icom are worth a look strong and reliable, our licence is roughly £60 a year.
  8. No history at all I don't know they guy. Just clearing up a point which bigrifle had questioned, he quotes ' an experienced game shooter' surely he would know the drill for the day. Think he has made a point that no one agrees with!
  9. So let me get this right working things out your way bigrifle, on a 250 bird day your saying you would get 4.8 birds per drive (based on a ten gun line)! Bang bang bang bang miss drive over! I think we all know things do not work out like this it's a collective average, some drives busier than others some drives more testing than others. Your budget and bag sizes must be huge to enable lots of banging!
  10. All guns who attended will be given first option on future days. I have a few pictures from the day which I will send out. Thanks
  11. We normally allow a team of guns to shoot 3-1 ie 3 shots to 1 bird, the team that day managed 124 birds, they achieved this with 351 shots, 2.8-1 was the ratio. They all shot very well. Does this answer your question. Many thanks luke.
  12. Just to say thanks to all the guns, the day went well and a very nice mix of people from all over. The day finished on 124 birds for 351 shots for 5 drives. I will be having some cheap days towards end if January. Thanks.
  13. Hi all, Special offer, 110-120 driven pheasant/partridge day in Nottinghamshire nr retford on Thursday 27th dec. This is a cancellation day so hence the price. Traditional sporting private estate, birds shown from covers and woodland. The day will include all refreshments and a light lunch. The day is open to single guns or a team £240 per gun. The day would require Appropriate shooting clothing and appropriate shotgun. Any questions please ask. Regards
  14. Hi mate what area is the dog in thanks
  15. Its worth asking your bird supplier what kind of ex layer they are. Are they caught up birds which do like to wonder or Are they polts that the game farm has kept back and brought on to use as this urs laying stock. We will only buy the kept back poults, feed and treat them like a poult and they will be there. So far we are having excellent results, micro is something to watch out for and can become expensive vet wise
