fenboy Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Well it looks like this week will be the first for a good while when I do not get out for a day. The last of my vining pea stubbles have gone , the harvest peas are far too high and there are very few birds on them anyway . So looks like I will have to wait now until some harvesting starts , my one and only rape field does not look far away , but the weather is not looking great , I have a horrible feeling it will be cut while I am at work next week , which means I am likely to miss out to another shooter its in a area that has produced lots of pigeon in the past too. No Barley on my farms either so I will be in for a bit of a wait unless something turns up out of the blue. The most annoying thing is Mrs Fenboy is likely to find me lots of "jobs " to do if I am not shooting , roll on harvest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motty Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Don't worry, FB, I should be able to find us a few to shoot on in the near future. I have got some barley stubble to shoot on already, but sadly not many birds on it yet. I have around 40 rape fields to choose from, with quite a bit hopefully being cut within the next 10 days. I will be in touch with an invite soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted July 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Cheers Motty , look forward to it . Its a pain not having much rape and no Barley this year which has left a bit of a gap in the shooting calendar for me. Talks of plenty of rain tomorrow would be nice if it takes a good lump of wheat down. I may have a go at some clays at the weekend to keep my eye in .

Big Mat Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 I saw a few pigeons on various laid fields on my travels today but no huge numbers. No combines out though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
