Spitzer Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) Hello, We have some opportunities for full and half Gun membership of our friendly game shoot in North Wales (about 15 minutes from Chester) . It is a stand and beat shoot, shooting on 8 Saturdays throughout the season with several pheasant drives on each shoot day. Ducks are driven over standing Guns and there are also woodcock on the shoot. Vermin is controlled through the year with good pigeon/crow shooting over crops, and rabbit shooting in the Summer months. The farms are pasture with some arable crops, plenty of hedgerows and several well placed woodlands. We also grow a cover crop and have two duck ponds. The land lies across 2 small valleys so the drives provide some challenging birds. We have two release pens and rear a few hundred pheasants and some ducks each year. There are voluntary work parties in the summer, a summer fun clay shoot and social, and an informal shoot dinner in January. We aim to have enjoyable shoot days with memorable birds, rather than just “how many are in the bag?”. Saying that, we do aim for and regularly get, bags of 30+ and make sure that every Gun has fair and equal opportunities to shoot. The shoot has improved and grown each year, and we are expecting this year to be even better again. The bag is shared at the end of the shoot day and everyone gets at least a brace to take home if they so wish. We have syndicate rules to ensure everyone’s safety and enjoyment of shoot days. Guns with dogs are preferred, but not essential as we also have some regular volunteer beaters. If you are interested please pm me and we can arrange to chat on the ‘phone and meet for a walk around the shoot before membership is offered/taken. Some PW guys are already members and I am sure that they will give you their views! Full Guns £780 8 days (plus 1st February rough shoot) Summer vermin shooting. ½ Guns £440 4 days (plus 1st February rough shoot) Summer vermin shooting. There is also a one-off Joining fee of £30 Opportunities are limited, so send me a pm as soon as you can if you are interested..

webber Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Gents I've occasionally mentioned the small syndicate shoot that I'm a member of. This is it. I wouldn't leave this shoot for a gold pig (solid, none of your hollow cast stuff). I've been in bigger shoots, but I've not been in better ones. We don't shoot big bags, but if you want an enjoyable days shooting in some excellent company with well presented birds, and usually a brace to take home, please contact Spritzer without delay. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magman Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 might be a good idea to mention the amount of full guns in the syndicate ( 8-10 per squad = 16 -20 overall ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maffs Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Spitzer, I'd could be interested in the shoot. I'll PM you later (when i'm properly awake) with some questions Cheers, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbird Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Am trying to figure out who you are, Spitzer as we're on this shoot too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitzer Posted May 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Hi Bigbird, You are not in my shoot atm. (Could fit you in, always good to have more dog people.) My dog would be most offended if you were a member of my shoot and didn't recognize him from his photo! Does your shoot sound similar to my advert? Do you go by the username of 'Rhosyn' on another forum by any chance ? Spitzer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you go by the username of 'Rhosyn' on another forum by any chance ? Spitzer nah big bird has got a bit confused and it's easy to see why, were on another shoot not to far away and very similar in our attitude towards the day and bag size. Plus we have a half gun spare and would prefer the position filled by someone with a working dog, I think rob should be writing the ad out for it over the next day or so.
