Archie-fox Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Evening all As some are aware I take people out for a bit of walked up grouse on a private moor, the moor is in West Yorkshire and there arnt big bags just a brace or two so if anybody has a good dog who fancies a morning out drop me a pm... So here is the good part, the moor is owned by my family and if anybody thinks it's a new permission I'm sure getting arrested will change your mind it's a one off day out...a good dog is a must!!!! Your mates staffy doesn't count!!! Insurance is a must as is a shotgun cert, this is a space for 1 gun at a time and I'll have about 10 or so free days maybe... I'm sure people who have been out before with me will vouch for how exiting it can be.. Drop me a message if you fancy a trip out.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangBangNik Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Sounds like a great offer pal. Shame I only have a chocolate lab! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novice Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'm afraid I've no dog but I do have a good level of fitness and a keen desire to try for a grouse. If either counts towards being considered then I'd love to hear from you! Novice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbiep Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Absolutely cracking offer ! No working dog, or else I'd certainly be putting my name forward. Good on you ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Boggy Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 What a very generous offer and a wonderful opportunity for someone to shoot their first grouse. Only wish I was younger, fitter, the owner of a 'suitable' dog and lived nearer, I would jump at the chance. Hope that you get some very grateful and appreciative takers.

hoggysreels Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 What a kind and generous offer.. its one thing to offer some pigeon shooting (again generous) but the opportunity of possibly getting a brace of Grouse is extremly generous ... someone is going to be very lucky (there are some nice people on PW) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzzicat Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 What a great offer, to any guns on their first Grouse outing You Will NEVER forget it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonwolf444 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I'll be honest I'd love to go again, the moor showed me up to be the poor shot i must be! Archie is a good company, i was unprepared for how hard walking it would be having never been on a moor before, glad to see Archie is still taking people out and people are not abusing the trust he places in forum members, its a fantastic place to spend a morning, weather your quick enough for the grouse or not. Got a very enthusiastic spaniel bitch who i wouldn't mind just taking out for the experience (/tire her out! ) but too much work through the summer has meant i haven't committed as i should have to the training so she's a raw and wild but the offer is there for me to come with her, could work her on a long lead and she finds lost birds readily enough. Sadly off the lead she's a bit unsteady. But i thought i would offer her services as a skilled disturber of wild life anyway; I'm happy to leave the gun at home.
