mickymiroku Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 What sort of mileage do you boys (and girls) find acceptable to regulary shoot/ferret whatever? Not the odd trip goose shooting/deer stalking, but week in week out driving. On average for a good days sport I need to travel about 50/60 miles round trip. Is there anyone does more than this for a day out? i usualy travel the same as you, 50/60 miles, but on the odd ocasion i will travel up 90/100 miles, just looking around.

Pedro Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 All mines within a range of about 10 miles, just as well really, that way it's not too far for Mrs P. to bring me a can of petrol when I run out at 0700 on a Saturday morning - doh!

bobt Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 I can shoot 100yds from my door to 10-20 miles away. I was in a shoot last year that was a 100 mile round trip, but the birds were not there, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axe Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 I must be a bit of a sad muppet. But then I would imagine you appreciate a good days shooting more than most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
