ShootingEgg Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Right, so I am a class A fool. On Monday I had a shoot, was a beaters day at a local shoot. So geared up, dog in tow, he can be a bit of a whiner on peg, so I put a can of air in the car as that has stopped him barking in the mornings. Get to the first drive. He is good as gold, sits quietly watching whats going on, second drive he is a little more excited so had to spray the air a couple times.. Then the third drive, where the school boy error occured... Sprayed air once, dog goes quiet, put can in pocket so I can concentrate on drive, brilliant hen pheasant comes towards me and I take her out in front, she lands two foot behind me. When I go to pick her up I hear a loud hissing sound and see a cloud of mist from my left leg, then the pain starts.... The aerosol can lid wasnt on and my bent leg had pushed the nozzel... I practically frooze my thigh.. I've never felt anything like it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mice! Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 very much ouch, how hard did the dog laugh? I'm trying to work out what pattern your semi permanent tattoo is? Could almost be someone sat on a rock or a stag........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Pure gold can of air to keep the dog quiet same can of air makes you noisy. Looks painful, will be an itchy bitch when it scabs over. How did the rest of your days shooting go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a fun beaters day. The day was good, just a little painful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
