Bagsy Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Mungler, Evil Elvis, Cash Money and myself headed up to deepest Oxfordshire this morning for a Game Flyer day run by the West London Shooting School. What followed was a full on non stop day of clay bashing over five drives on the Great Tew estate just outside Banbury. Not sure what to expect we were pleasantly surprised with the variety offered over the day and the organisation was spot on. If anyone gets the chance to go on one of these I would seriously recommend it. It was a one off for me and I enjoyed every moment to the full. Each drive had eight pegs with two guns on each, one shot while the other loaded swapping half way through. You'll have to forgive the lack of action shots - believe me we didn't have time to take them (except a few during the flush). Almost 1500 cartridges used between the four of us over the five drives. No pics of the first drive as torrential rain prevented me getting the camera out! Top day, top company, top shooting Following the previous days sunshine Jackets and waterproofs were now the order of the day The grouse butts on Raven Hill Moore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Top day and many thanks to Bagsy for the invite - another example of sharing the forum love. Everyone shot exceptionally well and the best bit was poaching other pegs clays was positively encouraged. Shame Elvis brought his stinky backside along. He quacked all the way there, quacked and belched whilst we were there and then double quacked on the way home blaming broccoli at lunch although the aroma indicated Scotch eggs we had at elevensies. Just tried cleaning the barrels of my gun - messy stuff those fibre wads. Gave up after 40 mins and will have another go tomorrow once I have bought a new bronze brush and more jags.

ME Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Looks like a great day out however, there is no mention of trophies, high guns or winning statistics there chaps. The Mafia obviously would have won the farting competition, but what about the shooting ?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob300w Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 In the first pic under the Chesscombe Clump heading, can you describe exactly what is being done to that rabbit by the chap on the right? Is that legal, even if it is consenting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 (edited) Bob, The legal term begginning with F is "FLEECING" as in what you do to your clients wallets. Foing was a genuine spelling mistake which everyone jumped on me for. So I have decided this will be my last post on here. You are all just bullies and I am going to report you all to the moderators Edited June 13, 2008 by martincavie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
