Padd2

cant wait lads first year with my own dog and all!

I was out earlier for a rabbit and maybe fox and all I seen was pheasant.
First field a hen rose up ten yards from me, then next field two cocks got up 30 yards from me, then more hens in the corner and last field 3 cocks ran into ditch.
So they are about. I dunno whether to go out on first despite not having a dog. Just won't feel right and it's be pure luck that one will rise within shooting distance

surely you must have somebody you could tag along with dodder?
twud be a shame to know some poor bugger was stuck at home on the 1st!
If our club allowed guests on the 1st you, or any other fella stuck would be more than welcome to my ground!!

Cheers mate. Lads I know are more deer and fox hunters or don't have a dog.
I'd nearly pay to go out with someone at this stage.

Buggs

What cartridges are everyone going to use this season?
Have a selection of Eley, Fiocchi and RC Sipe to use this year.

djflawless

Sipes ftw

Buggs

The sipes are a nice cartridge alright, suppose to be different sizing compared to an English cartridge. So a Sipe #7 is a English #6.5 if you get me.

dodderangler

Was using Eley maxus #5 and wasn't mad on them so went back to Remington #6 and am having more success on them so il be sticking with them

shotie
