Suffolk shooter Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 I have our eighth driven day on the syndicate on Friday and will be out at least once, maybe twice over the weekend wildfowling, not sure if Sat or Sun yet. Looking forward to Friday as I have the BASC eastern region director coming as my guest, so hope to ask him a few questions whilst out enjoying some good birds.

new to the flock Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Give them a try now George. Sounds as if you will be having a good weekend. NTTF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffolk shooter Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Cheers NTTF, it's been enjoyable up until a point, and hard work, but for the most it has paid off. Have to say though that with the increase in land lease costs, Grain costs, poult prices among other things it might not be a viable thing next year. Time will tell though.

Sundowner Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 I am lucky enough to have been asked by my local farmer to come out with him (and our dogs) for another bash on his land as I had missed his shoot due to another commitment beating on an another estate. GUess I am the lucky one I also have a few more beating days and by the end of the month another shooting day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
