yickdaz Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Nothing been cut on our land so limited options had to shoot same standing barley as last week the lines not as strong today, made worse by a neighbouring farm with a stubble and two shooters set up on it, all afternoon could here them shooting they were having a good day let's just say that we picked away for 3hrs and managed 47 farmer said he may be cutting this coming week so fingers crossed 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDog Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 How irritating that must have been. Forty seven not to be sniffed at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsh man Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 The two people shooting on the other farm could have done you more good than harm with keeping a few on the move and no doubt you helped them as well, we are at the situation now where there are slightly more fields cut than fields left standing , I went this afternoon and put 150 + off a fairly small rape stubble field , these must had built up over a period of time and once put off they then found other fields that had more than enough feed and with no disturbance and that is where they stayed , it was a perfect afternoon for combining but with only Spring grown fields left on ours the farm boys had a well deserved rest , with nice weather forecasted next week they will soon make a start up your way .

Wilts#Dave Posted July 28 Report Share Posted July 28 Very frustrating, been there myself as well on the other end where I’ve been in the shooting. Good result to get what you did though 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Boggy Posted July 28 Report Share Posted July 28 47 in 3 hours would be a good day for me. As said, the others shooting may well have sent some your way so best not to dwell on what may have been and just be thankful for the shooting that you had. Thanks for posting.
