Ferretboy111 Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 Will be trying again on saturday hopefully. The reason why martincavie+ suffolkshooter didnt do as well was because.... 1. At one point they were asleep 2. They didnt go where i said to go, thus just off the flightline. As id been watching the flightlines etc the week before. They managed 8 for around 20-30 shots i think. Which is better than nothing, there have been many a day where 0 was the end bag. The S/A is farmerguy's.22 escort camo.

Suffolk shooter Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 Pavman, There are no excuses other than we were in the wrong spot, we did have a few come in (Normally those that FG.22 and FB111 tried anti aircraft tactics on and missed) Seriously though it was an exteremely hot day and when MC and Myself looked first thing, we found a nice patch where it was obvious birds had been feeding and indeed we scared them off as we came round. We set up individual hides with a magnet out in front of each of us and the deeks in the middle, in no particular pattern and those birds we did see did come in no worries. The lack of birds was due to 1) not being in the right place (our fault), 2) having a kip at the hottest point of the day, 3) getting bitten to **** by the oversized Mossies from the ditch behind us and more importantly 4) my shooting was absolutely diabolical. I had 3 + 1shared with MC for 28 shots (Iknow what Iwas doing wrong, but couldn't stop doing it - Head not on stock when shooting and shooting over the top everytime). MC had 6 + 1 shared for ?? shots. There is no excuse however for either FB111 or FG.22 not to have had a hundred each that day, the birds were coming from left, right, behind and infront to them all day and after shooting welll over 200 hundred cartridges should have managed at lest 100 between them Still regardless of howmany and despite those ******* mozzies, still a very enjoyable day. Cheers FB111 for letting us on your land again. When ever you fancy another day let me know and I'll go and sit up that corner near the wood this time (As I said I was going to) I promise.
