BrowningB7 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Hi all, A gun has become available on our small Saturday shoot, North of Northamptonshire (A14). 10 guns, 10 days, 200 birds (all pheasants) put down. Last season 86 shot 43% return. Our syndicate consists of friends and family, guns and beaters getting together on a Saturday for a days shooting. Everyone turning out for friendly banter, some of Rob's homemade soup and the possibility of a bird in the bag. I have taken over the running of the shoot as of the end of last season, and this is the first time a place has been offered outside of the syndicate. (Putting my neck on the line a bit!) Looking to introduce some new blood. Looking for a safe insured gun interested in a friendly rough shoot, not a big bag day. Must be willing to help out at work parties, cutting rides, prepping pens etc. (always plenty to do). A bit of walking is involved around our shoot as vehicular access is limited, 2 walking guns on each drive. So ideally two working legs, heart and lungs a benefit, fully functioning brain is optional ! Use of a 4x4 would be helpful on shoot days but not a must. Dogs welcome as I like to see pricked birds looked and accounted for, but again not a must. Guns pay £300 for the season. We don't have beaters fees just a couple of quid towards soup and each gun in turn brings a bottle of port or two! PM me if interested, some info on your shooting experience would be helpful.
