FOXHUNTER1 Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Last Friday saw me heading out with 3 boxes of cartridges and half a dozen crow decoys to see if anything was about. As I arrived at the farm the very 1st field had quite a few corvids on it so i decided to set up straight away in a lovely little hide tucked inside a hedge ... Straight away birds were decoying and i quickly realised I would run out of cartridges in no time so I phoned Jeff and told him to get down asap with some carts and his gun.... He arrived just in time as I had only 3 carts left ..... The shooting had slowed a bit by now but was still steady ..... Ended picking 122 birds consisting of 11 magpies , of which I got a right and left Thanks to Jeff for saving the day as I would have missed out on a lot of birds if he hadn't done me a favour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul taylor Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Cracking bag that, I'd be well chuffed with that lot😀 I've managed 11 magpies in a session but that was with the air rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
