Natures_son Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 Well was P*ssing it down this morning but had arranged to go out with farmer again this afternoon. Got round his about 12 and was out on the field about 1ish. Set up and settled down to get soaked in the constant down pour. Very slow sport at first with me missing the first two birds All respect to phil he did give me the most chances today and i appreciate it a nicer bloke you couldnt meet. My ration i have to admit was pretty damn appauling due to me not giving them enough lead. Oh well live and learn i ended up with 12 birds for probably 70ish shots. And Phil finished with 10 for probably 15-20 shots. Though a few of Phils shots did serve another purpose as im sure he will explain :o Brightened up about 4ish and the birds became alot more active. Mr Burrows did rather well as well and accounted for 12 pigeons but could only pick up 11. Then again most of his shots were third time lucky? Great day, Great company and Great sport what more could a guy ask for. End bag and the A-team. ImgFree.net - Hosting Images Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So explain to the good folk what you used some of your shots to do. Or if you wont maybe Rich will. :o Well whats happened a couple of times in the past is that Mr Burrows has been set up in his hide the other side of a field to my good self and I'm sure it's never been intentional to do it but he's a single bird coming in at approx 1000 yards away and decides to take a shot at that sort of range at the exact time i've got half a dozen birds just about to float in to my decoys anyway lets just say today was payback time who says pigeon shooting aint sporting at this time of year myself and jordan were in fits of laughter watching birds going towards his decoys only for me to let a shot off just before they were in range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJ2 Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 A decent bag in spite of the weather. What were you shooting over, the only birds I'm seeing in any number are on the clover and weedy set-aside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
