  1. Back up the woods yesterday after the rain had stopped , on the same feeder they kept coming that 20 in 3 short visits , should have been more , 52 this year over 2 perms
  2. Yes can also watch the on you tube
  3. I’ve a Honda Crv AWD as long as your doing serious off roading it’s quite capable 40mpg , I can get 2 dogs and all my shooting stuff in it
  4. Never have before but as soon as the rains started last October the birds went ,only to really return during the cold snap in January, as the commercial shoot next door who put down 10000 plus birds were having difficulty keeping theirs and the same being reported all over the country he took the decision to leave the woods alone with no disturbance to them , the keeper is a mate and we built his boss the release pen , we do all the maintenance, in return I get 5 or 6 days on the pheasants , pigeon , crow and squirrel shooting he let me put up 3 static hides plus I picked up 200 kg of feed for nothing which I also use on another perm , so I can’t really moan Yes me being of it for so long has created a void for more to fill , which means I’ll have to up my game abit
  5. I have shot this perm all year round in the past but last year / this year , the keeper wanted me to stop due to pheasant poults in the woodland pen ,which given the difficulty of holding the birds this past season was probably a wise decision , last year the woodland won a local farmers award for the number of bird species now inhabiting it last count was 54 , where 3 years ago it was devoid most of songbirds , as for food my feeders hold the same as the pheasant feeders , which is what ever comes out of the farmers driers mainly sunflower seeds , wheat , barley , cut maize and various other seeds , the wood itself is mainly beech , oak , yew and ash , which unfortunately we will loose due to ash die back
  6. 2hours sat in the hide , filled 6 feeders Saturday all empty Sunday
  7. Just got an Arken Zulus , brilliant set ballistic calculator up , plenty of vids on you tube on how to do everything on it
  8. £1300. Do you get a gun to go with it ?
  9. I could have done ,but asi don’t pay for the feed I use anyway ( left overs from mates grain /seed drier ) I thought a tin of hades would do 👍
  10. Popped up to new perm last Sunday it check feeders bumped into owner , he then tried to give me £120 for my efforts so far , I refused to take it , he then said he would feel offended if I didn’t ! , eventually settled on £20 for a tin of pellets and put it down as a one off payment
  11. Can’t get them off ? Had a pair of Hoggs I eventually had to cut off me
  12. Easy get shot of hw110 and buy the air arms , I did and never regretted it , but I did regret buy8ng a 110
