FOXHUNTER1 Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Had a walk out today for a few hours walking out the rushes , snipe , hares and rabbits were my quarry. The hares need thinning out due to constant unwanted attention from travellers 😡I shot ok on the ground game but rusty on the snipe missing 3 before finally connecting 😁they're my favourite sporting bird 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
