oscarsdad Posted September 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 (edited) Just remembered starting this thread so thought I would update progress against goals... Daydreaming at work this morning and thought about what I would like to achieve next year in my country sports...thought it may make an interesting thread. My aims are: Shooting: Actually hit something on beaters day! - done, 10 birds for 16 carts Book a stalk and get my first deer - DSC1 done, no deer grassed yet but hope to change that on this Sunday 100 bird day decoying - failed so far, 55 best First goose / experience of wildfowling - done Get my cocker trained up for the 2013-2014 season - ongoing Shoot a grouse on the glorious 12th and have my cocker retreive it - missed 12th but will hopefully achieve this in a week or so Consistently hit 70% on sporting clays - done Fishing: First ever sea trout - failed 5lb bass on the fly rod - failed but did achieve on a lure and my first Bonefish and Permit and a 400lb Bull shark this year makes up for all missed fishing goals! 10lb barbel - failed 2.5lbs river grayling on a dry fly - failed Archery:get up to master bowman classification (which will be a tough ask) - failed & have retired from Archery at Bowman and sold kit to concentrate on fishing and shooting.What are the aims of you lot for next year? May be interesting to track them on this thread with photos throughout the year. Anthony Any updates on yours chaps?

tonker Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I want to clear 200 foxes for the year! I've managed 187 and 192 in the last two years, But don't seem to be able break that 200. For anything else I'll take whatever flies,or runs past me in rage and be thankfull. I guess I just dislike Foxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
