Shooting around Woodbridge


Recommended Posts

Hi

I live in Rendlesham. Have spoken to the two main landowners in the area (Sheepshanks and Bunbury) and they really dont seem too bothered about pigeons! Sir Michaels keeper said he would sort me out some woody shooting in the winter, but havent heard anything yet.

I'm not interested in vermin or rabbit shooting though, so you might have more luck there?

Actually sheepshanks and Bunbury are bothered about pigeons, there are over 20 guns on at least one of the estates-I know so because I used to shoot there before I moved out of the area.

 

Try some beating for the keeper, some pigeon shooting will soon follow.

Surprised by this, living in Rendlesham, I see/hear very little pigeon shooting going on, and I can see plenty of 'pigeon action'. Perhaps some of the guns of which you speak have packed it in?? I also seem to think Philip Westrup probably pulls the strings being the contract farmer for most of the estates locally.

 

Sir Michael sent me an email yesterday saying he would like to meet me, and that he wanted me to meet his keeper (who I already know).....as a result of my efforts in a work related matter recently. So things could be looking up.

 

I've also got an 'in' for a load of land out Debach way, which I'm just waiting to hear about.
