tommy 64 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/ind...showtopic=73638 Hello All Well what can i say about this wonderful forum. I only joined last night and jumped straight in at the deep end and asked for help regarding pigeon shooting and the fact i could not hit them (see link to original post), cheeky i know but there we go. Well within a matter of a couple of hours i had 2 messages offering me help. To say i am surprised is an understatement, i never ever expected this when i posted my request for help. Firstly i received this reply from chippy18 Hot Shot Pigeon Shooter Group: Members Posts: 222 Joined: 16-October 06 From: East Sussex Member No.: 3768 Hello Mate i am just down the road from you and have loads of land all around that area. If you are interested i have to go over to one on Thursday this week, which is in the Battle area. There was still some birds about there the other day. You are welcome to come along if you are about this Thursday. If you fancy it pm and i will let you have my number so we can talk properly. Cheers -------------------- Beretta Ultralight De Luxe Beretta 687 Silver Pigeon V 20g Beretta AL 391 Urika Beretta Xtrema 2 Synthetic Remington 105CTi Franchi Harrier Field Ugartechea DTE sbs and then i received another message from Foggy11 also offering to help. I have been looking on this site for a few days now before i joined and had a feeling that it was just what i needed and boy was i right. I have today spoken to chippy18 who is not very far away from me and who i think must be a real gent. He has after talking with me agreed to take me to some land he is shooting on tomorrow and try and give me a few pointers. When i posted last night i never expected that within a couple of days i would be meeting up with someone who is prepared to give someone a helping hand. I feel this speaks very highly of the type of people who contribute to this forum and also of the type of person who is involved with this great pastime. Thank you all Tommy.

tommy 64 Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 A great site but to copy a pm to the site If i sent you this pm i would not be to happy Its a private message ? Hello The section that i copied in to this post is not the pm that chippy18 sent me. Its the reply that he left in my post asking for help. I would not dream of put the contents of a private message on here, especially as it contained chippy18 mobile number. Thank you.

Rockers Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Just wanted to add that this site has been an inspiration. I have managed to get some shooting on rape fields near whereI work and on my first outing managed to get a couple which I am going cook tonight after they have finnished in the marinade. All I would suggest to those looking is to keep at it. Thanks for all the advice given freely on here it is a top site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
