our first day is today.... was supposed to be the22nd but bought forward cos birds are good size and movging around well... i do all the game cover on our syndicate in return for a full gun [we shoot every other week].. only shoot between 50-100 each shoot and that goes down to 20 towards end.. but we have 6 good drives, its on my doorstep and good bunch guys shoot there...

The estate next to us turns down 20.000 pheasants partridge a year, my dad has half gun and i'm trying to get another half gun there too... they shoot up to 400 a day there on some real good hillside drives... [as good as you'l get in our area]...

bit too sunny today for my liking but this will be the first day offi've had since middle may so i'm gonna enjoy it..

group beating in the woods & fields next to the kids footy pitches this morning.

 

The guns were going off fairly close to us, & every time the ball went off the pitch & into the woods, we all kept looking at each other & said "after you" :biggrin:

 

 

I haven't been shooting for years, but now I'm in t'country I might have to re-aquaint myself.

Talking about the fallow rut, i've been working in a fallow enclosure all week , deadwooding oaks above a path that is going to be opened in the future.

Approx. 180 fallow in there and the bucks have been calling all day, all week.

Good to watch the bucks (at distance) holding the hinds at their little love pad !
