Jason_ox Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 (edited) Just seen this on the DM website. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3829878/David-Beckham-enjoys-day-pheasant-shooting-pal-Guy-Ritchie-s-Wiltshire-estate.htm I don't think much of the write up tbh the usual DM misconception and lack of research is very apparent.

nagantino Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 I guess it would be too in-correct to be photographed actually holding a shotgun, or shooting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Now then....wouldn't that be a coup if David Beckham discovered he really enjoyed game shooting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penelope Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 It would, but I expect he'd get something of a backlash. Now then....wouldn't that be a coup if David Beckham discovered he really enjoyed game shooting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

four-wheel-drive Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 He looks the part until you see his neck and arms and hands nobody with any style would ever have tats like a old time navy. :sad1: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPhantom Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 I'm amazed the Daily Mail were allowed to take so many photographs on a private shoot. There wasn't much mud on those Chameau's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brodie Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Didn't see much mud on the Defender. Even the tyre treads were spotless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalahari Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 I don't think we should be too rude about it. Any support of this type should be helpful It won't sway the extremists but the undecided might be affected to look a little more kindly on us. David.

A skilled and respectable occupation in the past. I don't really care about his tattoos and couldn't care less about them as long as he promoted shooting. It is often the perceived pomposity associated with shooting which goes against us, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team tractor Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 I like the guy but seeing as he has a child with epilepsy I'd love to see him promote awareness for it as its a killer. We need him to promote the sport also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norfolk dumpling Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Excellent to see him out on a shoot. The 'red top' I picked (in the absence of a decent paper) just highlighted the possible cost of his clothing - £1400 spent on one day out. As if he would not put the cap or wellies on again?? ST has pictures of Schofield, Ant, Dec and Holly Wobblybits on a clay shoot so perhaps there is a bit of reality creeping into our world and less PC. I dream.

CharlieT Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Didn't see much mud on the Defender. Even the tyre treads were spotless. My keepers are instructed to wash their vehicles before every shoot day, it conveys professionalism, respect for the shoot, guns, beaters and the game we shoot. I can't possibly see how muddy vehicles convey anything other than sloppiness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Great to see Beckham giving it ago.High profile selebs grab peoples attension.For example i only read this post because of the title so it proves his profile gets attension.The other bloke 'i have no idea who he is' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagantino Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I suspect lots of celebs enjoy shooting. It's a dynamic sport and huge fun with lovely toys. Beckham is a decent bloke no problem. I'm surprised no one has picked up on the glass of red wine. What a song and dance they would make of that ......drinking and shooting.
