    I keep trying to 'slim down' my kit but always end up shoving the whole lot in the car 'just in case'.

    If I have to walk (which is very rare these days) I have a converted fishing trolley with wheelbarrow wheels fitted so I can get as much gear as possible to the hide site.

    I obsess that if I don't have that one piece of equipment with me it will drastically affect the outcome , truth be told it probably makes no difference but on a slow day I look for any reason as to why the birds dont come, and like all sportsmen I always blame my equipment or lack of it, I think my head needs looking atย :yahoo:

    I have always tried to save money on things like decoys , nets etc, but since I got older and began to creak a lot, I had to buy a seat that was comfortable, adjustable legs to sit level on all terrains, adjustable height , swivels 360 degrees, a good strong backrest, and folds down to an easily portable size,

    I found the answer in my Bergara Quake industries 'stag'. all terrain seat.

    It was around ยฃ80 but after trying it for a few outings I got back in touch with them and bought another, I often have a friend or my son coming out with me and its handy to have a spare anyway, its now 2 years old, has never broken or caused any problems.

    I bought the first one on eBay but the second direct from the importer and saved another ยฃ5.

    The only thing I found was the seat cushion was a bit firm so I had the wife knock me up a small foam cushion to give me a bit more comfort as many of my sessions will last 5 to 6 hours with a lot of sitting waiting.

    They are still listed on eBay but have gone up a little in price , now ยฃ89 listing numberย 330846514737 and are actually being sold by Pigeon Watch.

    Thank you, I'll have a look at those

  3. Had a fantastic day at purbeck shooting school yesterday. First time I've got at the clays for years so I was very rusty but had lots of fun. Really well layed out and something for all skill levels. Friendly helpful staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Even had a really nice bacon roll and coffee. All in the sunshine too!
