silentsoulsleave308holes Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 well after a disappointing start to the day (so called mates not even bothered to at least if I wanted anything let alone if I wanted to go to the game show) I went out to test some things and when I got to the fields I had a surprise 223 at the ready with 52a-max and two bangs gave me two Canadian geese, the first at 211 and the second at 252 not far I know but it was fun with my Lil gun and she stopped them dead in their tracks and it was a lovely sun set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the game fair if I'd know you would have liked to have gone I would have made arrangements to pick you up, thing is no one told me it was even on I only found out a few minutes ago when Millpool emailed and said he met my brother and Ray there. No matter pard they will be back when they want something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charly hunter Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 The Show was at Shepton Mallet. And a good show too, so I'm told. But as I am a mushroom, I heard nothing about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Nice one Jamie slightly off topic but it doesn't seem like many people in the Uk shoot any birds apart from corvids and pigeons with a rifle.You are the first goose shooter that I have heard of.We shoot the usual corvids,gulls,pigeons etc but also ducks ,geese and game birds(grouse,ptarmigan,black grouse,capercaillie)Regards Toby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
