MacSxS Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 I had a phone call from old'un last week offering me some shooting over some rape. well I wasn't going to say no !!! I am quite fortunate ( not as fortunate as you retired chaps) that I only work 4 days a week. He ask if I could go to his permission on Friday morning and see what I could do. I haven't done much pigeon shooting over the last couple of years, my main focus being helping out on our little syndicate shoot and beating on 3 others. well, the birds turned up for the party but me and my little non ejector side by side did not! I was not the best shot, but I had a whale of a time. I could come up with a thousand excuses, but the bottom line is some of the birds bested me ( to much time shooting easy pheasants ) I cannot thank old'un enough for trusting me with is permission, and the way I look at is, the farmer got what he wanted ( birds off his crop). I had great fun, and because i missed so many old'un with have some bird to shoot when he can get there. everyone's a winner. If anybody has any bird scaring requirements, just drop me a call, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 Good on you for helping out when old'un needed a bit of help. At least you would have moved the birds on and if lucky you can improve with more practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dead eye alan Posted December 15, 2021 Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 Nice report but what you want is a semi auto so you can miss more often. Well done old'en for your generosity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
