djgeoff Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Hi there where abouts in rugby is it ? hi i might be wrong as mate books it for me, but i believe it has something to do with some chaps at barby, i have heard the name gordon mentioned. i also believe you have to book, which was done about a month ago, well that's when i paid my fee to mate who booked me on it. i think it various locations, luck of the draw which woods etc, that's why booking in is required so they can organize it. ron has told me some locations are good some are poor or shall i say more awkward. my own opinion either way i am not bothered its out and about shooting, so i am happy win or loose, pigeon or no pigeon Edited February 3, 2012 by djgeoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the crowman Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 Good luck lads hope the snow comes sooner than later because they won't like flying about in that so you should get good bags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djgeoff Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 ron, me and other mate were at place ron called tunnel wood, says normally good, but it was pants, we didn't hear much banging in other woods so they were not bounced about, and five mins after starting snow came, we carried on but all we got was cold fingers. i got one going away but dropped disused rail line and i could not get it, ron got 5-6 i think but he could not be bothered to fetch two from field as we did not intend going back to barby due to impending weather, not sure what other mate got, think it was around four mark. for those of u that know this location ron and mate said they noticed feeders out at one end which have never been there before and trail through wood seems to have been used a lot, so a lot of movement to attend the feeders would unsettle the pigeon that would normally be there, also a recently shot rabbit was found on top of one of the feeders. so on the whole it was pants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm there next week. We were at Tultips farm. There were a few in the trees when we arrived but they soon ****** off when we started banging! A couple of deer ran through the woods as we were setting up. They were only a few feet away we must have startled them. They startled us anyway! My mate Lol won on the day I think with 9. I managed 3. I was happy with that for my first attempt at roost shooting. I enjoyed it even with the snow coming in near enough as soon as we began. See you next week.

Asa Bear Posted February 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) 3,1&2 for a grand total of 6! A little embarrassing when the next gun empties a bag of 17 for one day Still at least I didn't dry bag like grbeduff did on two occasions. Mind you he managed a squiggle and a crow yesterday. Shame he couldn't weigh em in. http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h449/Logo228/42a6039b.jpg Edited February 19, 2012 by Logo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
