Cookiemonsterandmerlin. Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Out of intrest you have reported some large bags shot by yourself on here. Why buy days when clearly you have access to some quality shooting. Cheers OTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellebarto Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 My permissions fluctuate and I'm always looking for a shooting oportunity even if it be one I have to pay a little for. Often seen these adverts on ebay and thought about it and although I know they cant gurantee a bag, had assumed they wouldnt advertise unless the fields were being hammered! Bet that was a right let down for you! My permission is currently covered in rape of varying age and growth but so far not much action at all. Last two mornings Ive driven alongside fields leading up to my permission rammed with crows on what looks like cut wheat but I assume has rape seed blown into it to have such big numbers! Pretty sure its estate land but might wander round for a chat with the farmer tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlander Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Norfolk farmer with a farm, possibly one or two fields that may or may not have pigeons on them advertises on THAT site and people PAY to visit and shoot! Why would you do that? How many others have been there before you? I've seen adverts like this for deer stalking, rough shooting etc etc but I'm willing to bet that none of them are worth a toss! I'm not talking about guided pigeon days, guided deer stalking and serious paid for days (before anyone gets on their tall pony) but the sort of ad that runs, 'come and walk round my farm, pay for the priviledge and shoot what you like'...only what you like has been done so much before the place is like a desert! As they might say in Norfolk or anywhere else for that matter...u don't get oot fer noot! Besides as a pigeon shooter you should know; recon, recon and recon is the only way!

al4x Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 realistically £31 for a days shooting was always going to be a gamble, going shooting anyway is. The simple fact is you had a day out in the country on someones ground and ok you didn't shoot many but that is life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookiemonsterandmerlin. Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 ok then i have come to the conclusion that i am the best woodcock shot in the country, seeing as how i find them quite easy to kill, and most here find them incredibly tough to hit! excellent! And you have the cheek to say I think I am great Regards OTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
