Big Al Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Our syndicate days are as much about the craic as the shooting. You need skin like a rhino as the teasing is remorseless! Anyway, a wee clip of pheasant shooting in our corner of the world. I'm still experimenting with music so sorry if it's not your thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy a day like that too but I'm a wildfowler at heart. Nothing beats an early morning at the ducks or geese. 3 hours ago, scutt said: 👍 great Thanks 2 hours ago, greylag said: Another great video.Good shooting in lovely surroundings with a group of friends can't be bettered.Thanks .

Cheers. Yes - Wee buddy Bear is the next generation of lab. He has still got a long way to go to be evenue close to Ted! I may never have another dog like Ted again. He's a once in a lifetime dog. I wish he could grow old with me. He's 6 now. Hard to believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Thanks for posting that, most enjoyable and the wind made me feel cold just listening to it. I have been a member of a few Shoots like that, where its all about the social side of things, not the bag size. The section where the two dogs were sitting having come in from the cold was excellent, their wagging tails and expectant looks was a joy. Two nice steady dogs, a credit to you.

Big Al Posted November 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Thanks again Cranfield. My dogs aren't that steady! If you look carefully you will see they are tied to a branch! To be sure, to be sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive never shot a pheasant, but think a mooch about after one or two with a spaniel through some cover for a day followed with an evening flight for fowl or roost shoot some pigeon. would be a very sensible way to procure Sunday dinner........... or the rest of the week.

Big Al Posted November 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) Chokes - quarter and half ( can't go wrong! ) Cartridges were RC 32g steel 4s close to water and GB 32g 6s over the fields. Edit to say that apart from duck shooting cartridges (usually 3"gamebore mammoth steel ) I don't buy expensive cartridges. I'm a firm believer that the worst cartridge in the world is a lot better than I am.

I didn't get out yesterday, pheasant next week so it'll be another fortnight before I can get back at the fowl. This work really is the curse of the wildfowler.
