MerseaDavid Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 It is nice having alot of land to shoot over because you can spread it out, but then it is garanteed that you will want to shoot more than one place at one time. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikee Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I had a look round these 2 new patches today, one is all winter wheat and plough so not much use til the spring drilling, the other is about 2 miles away and all rape, 10 field in a clump, almost 600 acres with hardly a tree or hedge, this will take some figuring out but plenty of pigeons moving around it though, this could be time to buy some more nets and set up in the middle under a flight line if i can spot one. mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
