sako751sg Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Had a walk round 100 acres today with the snow dinging down.Ended up with 9 pheasants and 2 frenchies.Should have had a woodcock too but the safety played up on the shot.Usually have great sport with the snow on this ground,as i have a ditch about 400 yards long with feeders that the game like.Did lose a runner,and all birds were taken with the browning 525 black/gold using eley superbs in 7.5s.

sako751sg Posted December 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Best kind of day IMO, glad you enjoyed it and hope you have one or two more days like it this season. Extremely lucky to have very good ground to get on.This walk covered approx 100acres,although i have a neighbouring farm too that runs at about 250 acres,but im leaving that for a boxing dayish walk.I get on all that for two bottles of whisky and two boxes of chocolates as well as keeping them supplied with venison,game ect. Thats excellent shooting Really looks to be a good covering of snow over there-there wasnt any amount worth talking about here in Ireland but i do hope we get a bit over the hols Just out of intrest were all the pheasants black neck's? Cheers,and we have about 3-4 inches in places,snow that is. Most of them are blacks,although there are plenty ringed too.I always think a ringed looked so much better.I see a fair covering forecast for NI today and a weather warning too,so hope you do get some white stuff. What do you do with all the birds? :lol: The freezer is full,and any permissions i have i always drop some in by.If anyone is ever looking for a brace or two,i have always spare,although a fair travel to Aberdeenshire.I breast them by the youtube clip way,and its way better. Lovely pictures mate, you made me feel very jelous, sounds like you had a cracking day with the dog and gun!! Cheers fella.Great day,great dog,great gun and the weather and birds a bonus.If anyone ever up this way,gladly take them for a walk and a shot. WELL DONE! Cheers.
