chrispti Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 (edited) Well, having missed the clay shoot this morning due to work, I decided to have a go at the woody's this afternoon. Wasn't it HOT out . . . . . . . . and the birds where not their ''keenest'' to play ball either. I set up first at the bottom of the field, but having the sun in my face with no shade what so ever, soon became unbearable, so I upped sticks and moved up to the top of the field and set up on the East facing side of a hedge row. Had a few good shots and some good right N lefts too! Finished up with 145, 120 odd in the pic and the rest were down where I originally set up and were picked up on the way out.

M.I.A Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Did you find the birds where more active as it cooled down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispti Posted August 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Did you find the birds where more active as it cooled down? They decoyed allot better. It seems first thing in the morning and late evening are the busiest times, when the birds are actively looking for food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
