  1. Your absolutely correct there were a few specially on the granite rocks most though fell through trees
  2. I have in the past been lucky enough to shoot at an estate in Wales renowned for Pheasants on the higher side, and there birds all go through there own shop, the guns are allowed one brace. But they do use the bigger breeds of pheasant and the longer ranges they shoot at mean very very little is wasted.
  3. Just as an aside we have pheasant one a week either in a casserole or roast, probarbly eat more than I shoot. But not sure I'd pay for it if it wasn't free
  4. Yes all processed in house mostly breasted at least 4 breasts to a tray but some whole birds trayed and wrapped and the guns take as many as they want, the rest given away as the farm sell home grown beef, lamb and christmas turkeys and geese.
  5. I shoot, beat and drill game crops on 24 shoots around us and NONE have moved to non toxic and don't intend to, we have 2 days on one commercial shoot were the game dealer takes a very small amount of duck and the venison but is not interested in pheasant and partridge even if shot with non toxic
  6. This......Red Kites, Buzzards around us we have quite a few on the farm late spring early summer 50% gone by the end of harvest all down to raptors
  7. Yes because Regulation and Legislation is a very well paying industry in it's own right
  8. Early mornings and dusk is when I generally shoot most and always find more in traps on rainy days
  9. Thanks largely or entirely to OVER regulation.
  10. Not without the relevant certification and I'd wager you these people wouldn't have it
  11. Nearly a 100% increase on the Defender on Tuesday.....did the Go Compare thing £40 cheaper with breakdown cover added than last year
  12. I'll bet they are, all leading to compulsory training lead by...you guest it.
  13. Who are the big authorities may i ask, he just wants to go stalking and i believe it recognise by the police
  14. There is when you buy in bulk, cartridges that is
  15. Your absolutely correct the main universal bits are the same but looking at the bare bones there are some big differences which can by omitted or added to suit your circumstances. Slightly bizarre was the Post Office gave some good quotes on Land Rover
  16. I went on comparison website for a quote on a disco and 6 of the top 15 quotes used the same underwriter quotes ranged from around a grand to 3 grand 🤬
  17. I friend of the OH (non shooter) son started beating a few years ago now want to get into stalking, and they found this online. HUNTING AND SHOOTING ACADEMY.CO.UK fronted by Peter Jones of the Capreolus Club fame. He thought he could do this online course while studying for A levels. Like you never heard of it but looked very good.
  18. Has anyone done this course I believe it's online, is it worth it
  19. Were you getting replacement pair ?
  20. This was the point i was trying to make, the GL is complete ********
  21. Does that mean in theory that all the Game dealers buying pigeons at the moment are breaking the law ?
