sirnovember Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 59 birds for £75 each is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mubz Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 was a great day! realy enjoyed meeting the guys of here who put there names down for the shoot! think we were all surprised when Mick said its a driven day insted! and for £75 for 59 birds (+ a little tip for Micks hard work) was fantastic value for money! Was not expecting to see as meny birds as it was the last day of the season and they had a big shoot on the wednesday, however the birds just kept on coming! Was not always on a "hot" peg but still had a good few shots and a cracking day! Hope to do the same next year. Regards, mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyxologos Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 And this is what i did with the other five birds. They will hang till Wednesday, I think. I will then skin them, gut them and store them in deep freeze till they are needed to feed me and my guests! May I take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to Mo, Rich, Martin, Les, and everyone else who made my first driven shoot such a pleasurable experience. My wife (who, has to be noted, accompanied me and patiently sat all through my missed shots till I got my kills) absolutely loved the experience and cannot wait till next year now. Big thumbs up guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyxologos Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 if this has worked here's some more pics They seem to be tiny for some reason. Perhaps you have uploaded just the thumbnails. Just put the original pictures up, sometimes forums do this resizing for some reason... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyxologos Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Is that, in your bathroom :-/ Yes, sort of! We have three bathrooms in this house we rent. this is a 'box WC' that has not been used (but is cleaned every week) for three years now. The only place I could turn the heating off, open the window and leave the birds for a few days to mature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richie76 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) con if i was you I'd move these birds out of your toilet,and put them somewhere cool... Hang them out of the window Edited February 1, 2009 by richie76 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyxologos Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 con if i was you I'd move these birds out of your toilet,and put them somewhere cool... Hang them out of the window It is quite cold in there, I do not anticipate any problems. As i said, i am not using this room for three years now. Why? Do you think they are unsafe there?
