P.S after all the stick I got on last weeks drive, I'm going back to jeans and holey jumper!!
:lol: -
Sounds like it's going to be a great day,
If you don't mind me asking what price was it ?
It was £400 Royboy, sounds like it's going to be well worth it.
On the Burnt Norton drive there were plenty of birds too, we could have easily filled the bag by lunch, on the first drive I stopped shooting once I bagged 5, only way to make the day last........5 sounds high, but I knew the next two drives and were I would be stood so knew I wouldn't bag too many there, but made up for it on the final drive.....we need to be cautious gents.......
Ollie, I'm only bringing cheese and pies, some others need to bring treats and other things, I have got to get Warwick in the car after all aswell...lol....
-
You both really missed out - Lloydi shot brilliantly (I understand JDog believes otherwise in relation to the last drive), I witnessed JDog missing a couple (albeit he shot some crackers too) and the two novices, very well mentored, shot very well indeed
What was wrong with my last drive? Best one for me, I bagged15 odd, JDogs just sore coz he thought it would be funny to send me up the hill, which turned out to be the best stand of the day
-
I fear they may increase their charge to us next year given they saw how smartly Lloydi was dressed.......
LOL.....where was my prize for best dressed gun of the shoot MR SNS...I don't know, half a job.....lol....
-
£500 per gun? Not for the whole day surely?
Yes HDav £500 per gun for the entire day, excellent value, SNS on here organised it...
-
What sort of money?
What does jdog charge for his expert on peg tuition?
LOL...would have been useful to tell you wouldn't it....£500 for the 100 bird day, JDog's company was more than enough remuneration (I'd rather keep him for a week than a month
) -
Just a quick note, getting a bit late in the year now and season almost over, but if anybody ios looking for a good pheasant shoot, Burnt Norton in Weston Subege is very good and I highly recommend it. This is the second year I've shot it, and another good bag of 118 on a 100 bird day.
I took two novices looking at getting into it, neither had licensesm but I had JDog and Oxford Fowler stand at their pegs giving expert tuition, the cost, entertaining JDog for a week....good drives, good food, expert company.....

J Dog can't access pigeon watch at moment so has asked I respond on his behalf...he says they are scale bugs and should be treated with fairy liquid/soapy water as above......

Great picture and beautiful dog.....I'm jealous

Thankyou for the input gents, again a lot learnt to put into practice.....
All the best...

Ok, so it is possible to salvage then. I take it the only right off is, if the stomach contents went all inside the carcass, or can you still trim and clean that at home?
-
It was the stomach that was pierced and the horrible green sludge that comes from it came out...It didn't enter the cavity, but went on the fur of the animal and then obviously my knife. It was a field gralloch so I didn't have a lot to clean or steralise with. As I am fully aware the nasty nature of the bacteria, I thought it best to be safe than sorry. Trust me, nobody was sorrier than me not to be able to salvage it as I had a few people I'd made venison promises to. The carcass didn't go to complete waste, my friend took it and fed it to his ferrets and dogs......
-
Shot yesterday...............
-
Whilst attempting my first solo unsupervised gralloch yesterday, I did the cardinal sin and pierced the stomach, it was outside the carcass but none the less I pierced it. (Sorry Highbird I failed you). This carcass HAS NOT entered the food chain I immediately discarded it.
But once the stomach is pierced, can the carcass be saved or is that the end of it?

Mr JDog Please pass on my best wishes and hope your good buddy Lloydi is soon on the road to recovery , as a tonic why don't you let him have a short break in your holiday residence on the North Norfolk coast where the bracing fresh air would do him the world of good , he could listen to the Partridge shooting on the nearby estate where bowlers hats are worn by the keepers , watch the Pink footed geese in the morning and the evening flying past your window , and as a special treat meet up with two members of the A Team ( Motty and Muncher ) who are close by and hear some colourful broad Norfolk and tales of pigeon shooting at its best , tell yer what , that would be worth getting ill for
Now this, I like the sound of
8 steroids a day Lloyd, you will look like one of them Billy Beefcake weight lifters.
It gets worse la bala, I have to take all 8 in one go for five days.........Bowsie Wowsie

Fenny, you have amazing offers on here, can you move closer to Oxfordhshire please so I can bite your hand off
When I think I can get away with it with her in doors, I'm going to buy one of your pigeon days that's for sure......

I have 4 perms....my very first perm the FEO came out and I had to drive him around the land showing footpaths etc....as said above , the other 3 were already cleared so no need. If it's your fist FAC (Which it would appear to be) and the land hasn't been cleared, I would suspect they will want to come out.
