pin Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Well, there were all sorts of plans for today, first light ferreting blown out by the rain, then clay shooting spoiled by the rain Was on the phone to SS and he said a local keeper might be up for us getting rid of some of the black ones for him. Sorted! Got packed up, and got over there with another lad (joining pw as we speak) and split into 3 hides to keep the birds on the move. I got stuck in first and had a total nightmare, I couldn't hit a thing It got better and I hit some nice birds, but had a problem picking as many as I know I had shot. The other lads got set up and I could hear them having some sport in the distance. Started to go dry for them about 3.30 so we packed up and got over to a roosting wood to catch some coming in for the night. Not as great as it could have been but SS took a peachy 40 yard bird which was nicely picked by Becky. I think the squirrel got added to the bag at that point as well. All the birds were behind us and very few came our way, we couldn't shoot in that direction which was annoying, there were literally hundreds of birds back there. Pic of the bag, 52 black ones, 1 piggy and a squirrel nicely guarded by Becky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pin Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Thanks, there are numbers there so hopefully the three of us can get back over there and have another couple of cracks at them, I know the keeper wants shot of them asap..

Stealth Stalker Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Yep the day got better Pin you forgot to mention the outcome of your first box of carts SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 I'll own up, it was shocking I don't think I hit a single thing with the first box In my defence it was the semi which I don't normally use, full choke so it took a while to sort it out, having that extra shot is a real cartridge eater when you are missing things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
