Thought now that i have registered i had better say hi. Has anyone got any idea why oxfordshire is so dire for pigeon shooting ?

 

Welcome from a fellow oxfordshire PW member the birds are about but most of my shooting in wiltshire.

 

A certain pigeon guide and his foreign clients have blasted the hell out pigeons in parts of oxfordshire that why there so wary and scared to death IMO.

 

Read some of my post you will see there are some good bags to be had but I do have roughly 20000 acres to shoot.

 

Regards OTH

I'm based in Witney but have no land or shooting rights here. it all seems to be estates !

Thats because they are all on my cousin's farm in sutton courtney. Every time i go shooting we manage to get a few.
