  1. Without doubt one of the best Montbeliarde herd of cows you will find in the uk. Young couple with a passion and work hard to get to where they are. They do not need that,
  2. You could be right as normal tenders are three to five years not one year on a trial run.
  3. Deer not included just game 180 acres of woodland
  4. The forestry commission as shooting to let in Lincolnshire for details email carole.barber@forestry.gsi.gov.uk
  5. On our shoot we have several duck flights which have not been shoot this season. i was going to put duck tubes on them as at the min there is 10 to 30 duck on each one. We take shoot on this year so learning curve! I have ordered duck for the big ponds which will be driven. So world you order duck for the flight ponds also if you say thay do not work to well the first year. Our just feed them.
  6. Could also call on HM the Queen as she was out presenting the trophy’s at the cocker championships at Sandringham.
  7. Me to mate I’ve got a lot to learn.
  8. Get your self to your local fancy dress shop. dress like nurses the cow from Blackadder sorted?. your shooting returns will double??
  9. We will also need pickers up and beeters.
  10. Beef farmer do not dispose of beef calves, dairy farms dispose of there dairy breed beef calves because they are down with TB. They have no choice but shoot them as they cannot be moved.

    foxing

    What part of the country do you come from.
  12. If pheasants where farmed liked chicken would there be a market??? I would say all day long. The problem is people eat with their eyes with game shot birds.
  13. The farmer makes is profit selling is beef, lamb, chickens, turkey, duck?? the big game shoots make there profit from selling hi profile shooting at a big cost. Are they interested in the sale of there birds?? They have got to start marketing there birds.
  14. £2kg the farmer is getting for a good beef animal at the min. The butcher/wholesaler is the one that makes the money with there prices which as been the case for years this is why a lot of farmers slaughter and market there animals now. there is a butcher down the road from me that sells a brace of pheasant for £12 sirloin £23.60 and also as the check to sell pigeons at £4.50 each. i think the big shoots need to start dressing there birds and marketing themselves my daughter is a head chef in a big pub chain and she would put game on the menu if she could get dressed game at the right price.
  15. We are looking at 8 drive days for syndicate members and beeters day and 4 days sold. What day in the week is upto all involved. The let days will be a Saturday. There will be loads of duck flighting also.
