First Woodcock

After much anticipation and losing a couple of days due to the lockdown I managed to get back out on Saturday for a driven shoot in the village where I grew up and lived for 20 or so years. Some good birds and good people to match. Highlight of the day is bagging my first ever woodcock one to remember. Total bag 114

sounds like you had a nice day, well done on the woodcock.

Out of interest I see the bag was 114, does the shoot sell onto the game dealer? I only ask as I would have thought that with the lockdown and shoots having cancel days there would be a shortage of shot birds making demand high.

The shoot is run by someone that also has a farm shop. Most of the bag was taken by guns/beaters/pickers up. The rest goes into the farm shop as far as I’m aware.
