  1. I have a new Go Po Session and would like to mount on an OU shotgun, can anyone advise on a suitable mount please and possible supplier. Thanks.
  2. A very nice right up, could have almost been there myself having been drawn into the description.
  3. Could not hit a barn dooor this afternoon, 18 birds for 61 shots; however did keep the birds off of the field for several hours. I had hoped that the wind would have kept the birds reasonably low, but no such luck and they would not decoy at all. Tried the rotary which only seemed to make things worse, pushing the birds even further away. Nevertheless a very pleasant 4 hours was spent in great setting.
  4. Well, it proved to be a thankless day. Fired one shot (missed) and they did not return. Nice day out in the fresh air!
  5. I would be interested to know what others do when they change their vehicle. I have just changed vehicles and was planning to let the six farms that i have permission over know that I have changed, as I am often parked up watching for birds, but a friend said that he never bothers. I just feel I have a responsibility to let them know, mainly so they know who is 'hanging around' What do others do?
  6. Shooting this field tomorrow, hope they are still there. https://youtu.be/55BC1JURggM
  7. I had a similar incident a couple of years ago, I had (have) written permission from a farmer (tenant) and was about to set up to shoot when the keeper appeared and started on about me not having permission and telling me to ****** off. I called the farmer who appeared on the scene, I thought the farmer and keeper were going to come to blows. I stayed and shot and I have shot there on one more occasion, however I was left feeling very uncomfotable and have not been back there for the last two years.
  8. Out on laid Barley yesterday, a real struggle to get 19, so very impressed with 200+ birds well done.
  9. Thought we might have been in for a big bag today having watched a field for a few days and which had 100's on when we arrived; but sadly not to be ended up with 47 for 10 hrs shooting. Nevertheless it was an enjoyable day.
  10. Just over the border in Somerset and I am also devoid of any pigeons; like Rickyard Shooter the last few years have been really difficult. Having to work extra hard just to get bags above 50, last year the largest bag was 148. I sit here feeling really jealous of others who are having constant reasonable bags.
