Gareth Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Hi all, Decided to go out for a quick bash last night, at a small area where only a few birds roost (there are a couple of barns and some old abandoned houses). It's nice because it's so close to me, but not a great spot otherwise. After walking up the long dirt track and seeing practically nothing my hopes were not high. I walked past the barn and to my surprise a pigeon shot off. It was a really hard shot (for me, I'm new to this game) and was the first bird I had seen, so I decided to leave it in the hopes that there would be more in the buildings. I didn't want to scare those off with a shot to nothing. As I walked up to the buildings I regretted not taking my shot as it seemed dead. As I was thinking that, a bird dropped from the rafters and scared the **** out of me, it was pretty much on my head and then shot away. I swung round and shot it with the first barrel, a pretty rare feat for me. Those two birds were the only ones I saw that night, so headed off soon after that. I was just happy to be out for a 30 minute walk and to bag a bird too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30-6 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 A good snap shot like that can be better than a shot where you watch the target get closer and have time to think. You'll remember that shot forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
