Clodhopper Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 I feel your frustration at the moment albeit on a slightly different tangent. Spent all afternoon looking at stubbles and likey lines, covered God knows how many miles and did not see anything resembling a line of birds going to feed. All we can do is keep trying. Can you get permission on other land the line crosses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clodhopper Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Keep asking around it will pay off eventually. As is often stated on here beating can often open doors. Looking forward to more reports from you. 12 minutes ago, Jacko3275 said: Other than asking all my neighbours 300 yard either way no I’m trying to get in with a guy who is allowed to shoot pigeon on the estate was drinking with him the other week gave him my card and told him if you need a partner or your boss needs beaters give me a ring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now would be a good time for anyone to inquire at the various local shoots who is thinking going down the beating route , some of the bigger shoots around here would be having there first Partridge day in less than three weeks time , although the majority would be getting towards late September .
