al4x Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 they are paired up as far as possible from what you can see, I'm sure its more the photo rather than them being in a heap they look about as well laid out as you can lay braces of pheasants. Looks like a good day was had by all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodcock11 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) they are paired up as far as possible from what you can see, I'm sure its more the photo rather than them being in a heap they look about as well laid out as you can lay braces of pheasants. Looks like a good day was had by all I am confused - the last pic on this post looks as if it is from a different shoot and the birds in it are set out well enough - it is the first photo that I was commenting on. No, I have looked again -some people have moved round - the dogs have wandered off and yes the birds have been braced up - well done!

Paul223 Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 I quite agree Mr Woodcock, however we have some new to game 'guns' and some new 'guns' full stop, there is only a hand full of experienced game shots in the syndicate and at the mo i have a few other things to get on top of (a lot to do with respect for the quarry) before we look to much into the fine detail. It will all come with time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essexfluke Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 Yes first pic is better mainly because I am in it .Second pic was taken after and some birds had already been picked up then I think Alan turned up and everyone put down the birds for a pic with him in it. Anyway a cracking day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will all come with time. That is terrific - wish you all the luck in the world as you are doing a grand job introducing new guns to shooting in the very best way possible. May your shoot go from strength to strength - I am sure it will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul223 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Just thought I'd update this a little Pic from the 3 Dec shoot, 31 pheasant for 204 shots couple of PW's in the pic, magboy, philmypower, magman, sparkydee, and myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul223 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) And from yesterday, the best shooting so far this season, some very quick high and challenging birds 45 pheasant, 2 partridge and a woodcock, for 263 shots we were running a 'Partridge pot' (a sweep for the first Partridge shot) and yesterday this pot went to one of the regular guns, he then decided to donate this pot to the pub after dinner slush fund, fair play . Also we run a sweep for the number of shots for the day, again the winner generously donated it to the sloshed fund and it gets better, the pub, in keeping with the generosity shown by the others, donated the grub money to the completely sloshed up fund A cracking meal was had by all followed by a few drinks and some good humored banter As always in the pic above magman, magboy, themissus, philmypower Ask phil about the soup (or as he called it joke soup) Edited December 28, 2011 by Paul223 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
