  1. I would treat it like a Beautiful woman they both look good on the arm but cost a fortune.
  2. Well on are shoot on the 22nd we had a cracking day this was are Xmas shoot. this day was made more special has we had 5 guns on the pegs that were under the age of 21 the Young’s being just eight shooting a single barrel 410 with is dad he managed a hen bird on the first drive. We also had a 14 year old half gunning with is dad and a 15 year old girl half gun with her mum. Rumour as it she out shot Westley on the next peg? we also had my son at 16 and another girl at 21 The beaters where unbelievable again making the day what it was putting them birds over the guns. We also have 4 beaters under the age of 20 so all good to see the bag was 86 Next up was beaters day on the 27th this day we let them down really with not a enough beaters with just 6 syndicate guns and with Xmas man flu 🤧 We did manage to put birds over them but they just didn’t point the gun in the right place. Bag 38 but we didn’t take a shot count but there was a lot. I think they all had good thought. On to yesterday’s shoot another good day was had this day I was on a peg with Lincoln he’s just 11 and he missed beaters day as is dad had to Work so he shot the peg with me he end with 3 birds but 1 he hit would have any gun thinking what a shot. This day after 3 drives was looking like a record bag with 47 in the bag but not to be we pegged a new drive the wrong way with the guns the wrong side of the wood with the birds going in the opposite direction. But watch this space on this one there must have been 30 plus woodcock come out just guns in wrong place. After 4 drives the bag count was 54 so we moved to Hilderstone shoot bad move the birds where just not in the drives we should have stayed at hose wood as when we drove out down the drive the elusive partridge where in the next drive planed to do bad move on are behave. we finished with 64
  3. Will do mate when we have them good to have you on are shoot your welcome back when ever your available. And thank you for your beating expertise mate. Steve,
  4. Crossing Railway sleepers are the best if I’m closer than TC you can come and get what you require Nantwich mate. Will the chip shop be happy installing all that above them. 😂
  5. What about a sweep on the total?? Would take some guessing.
  6. Westley you are top man and a pleasure to shoot with. This year I’ve meet some lovey people that have come to the shoot and have returned. I’m learning and every new booking I’m taking a deposit of 30% I’m investing in a small gun bus so on your return you will be dropped at your peg mate.
  7. Your in good hands there Marcus with old’un A man with a wealth of knowledge.
  8. I’ve never had one cancellation from PW members it’s the pegs I sell on gunsonpegs. i tried to get the money but he would not answer email or phone. I text him for the money but no reply ever.
  9. With my first season I’ve had so many cancellations and had to try and sell at short notice. So now its 30% deposit and cash on the day. I had one gun cancel the morning of the shoot.
  10. The deer shooting was an invite from a syndicated gun to cull some deer. These deer where stalked not shot with shot guns mate. What I’m saying we give for there work and have a good lough on the way. like yourself I could put you on as many geese you could shoot. Not just Canada but grays and pinks. But not on the marsh has you call a marsh. This is wet land peat bogs. I know mate not your seen but if your down my way come have a go at them. They are testing birds that just lough at you.
  11. MM, you are spot on with what you say the good beaters know the drives and how it works. These are the one’s that do all the vermin control. I’ve give them all two days on a peg. But we just can’t pay £30/£40 for each beater. We are not a commercial shoot like you beat on. But we still put 80/100 days on. you tell me when your beaters have been invited to a cull deer and get 15 in one day.
  12. We have a gun available this Saturday we just shoot 8 guns with full hospitality. 70/100 bird day. £250. Steve,
  13. MM Are shoot could never afford £40 a day for beaters. With the beaters and pickers up that would be £800 a shoot. We just can offer good food drink pigeon shooting and a good beaters day. But also this season one of are guns gave 3 beaters a days dear shooting they shot 15 yes 15 between them.
  14. We do have lots of buzzards and I would say that’s a lot to do with it. But are cover crops are not good enough this year so we struggle to hold them in an area to drive them from. We still have a lot on the shoot but they cannot be found on shoot day. Will be different next year I will not let them crafty little beggars beat me. Was a good day mate just needed a few more beaters. Was a great day we just need more beaters to get the birds over you guns. I will take you pigeon shooting mate in the close season so you can get with shooting a shot gun again. When you haven’t shot a shot gun for years it’s not easy.
  15. Is that not a German tradition.
  16. We are down a few beaters on the 22nd Dec and the 5th jan if anybody could help out. Thanks steve,
  17. I’m well thanks yourself. Ferret man if your down my way again and your ferrets want some fresh borrows to work PM me. Life is to short mate hope your family have a lovely Christmas and a prosperous New Year. Steve,
