Jesus I'd nearly pay to go out on land that you have to shoot. Seems plenty of game about on it.

Hard weekend of hunting, four of us were shooting Lough Neagh in the morning then walking my own ground later.
We had seven ducks between us, I was lucky enough to get these four, Scaup, tufted and Pochard. Seen an amazing amount of snipe, around hundred fifty but only four made it to the bag. We got seven Pheasants and seen two woodcock but only one presented a difficult shot that was missed. My phone app said we covered ten miles of rough hilly and mountainous ground, my legs agree!

Got my first cock of the season Sunday Morning! Was my young dogs first! He got the bird up but I only winged him, glided for 30-40 meters before hitting the ground and straight into a ditch! The ditch was flooded which was his undoing, Harvey took in after him 100 mile an hour! Bird had gone under really heavy cover and with the amount of water in there I got a bit worried for a second but not a bother, straight in and under and out he came bird still kicking! To say I'm happy with his work is an understatement! :D

Happy Chappy after his retrieve!




Not too pleased about posing for his last photo "just gimme food n let me rest"

Well done to both of ye and may there be many more.

Got out Sunday for a shot....I need to sort out my eyes on the woodcock, but had a great day met a lot of game and nabbed these unlucky customers.

Well done mate. And well done to the dog for managing to retrieve him in that circumstance.
Reminds me of my firt pheasant last year with my bitch jumping from a height into a stream to retrieve.
Lost without her now.
Keep up the good work.

German pointer

Was out today very busy seen lots of fallow and brought home these 3 for the freezer. The first a pricket at 40 yards off the shoulder. Yes that's his heart with a hole in it. Thanks to the bullseye 360 competitions my off the shoulder shooting is improving and I got 2 doe fawns at 260 yards 3 good drags

Stag I got at the weekend and two nice animals myself and the cousin got 2 weeks ago.

Finally got one of the of the white boys.
At a nice distance right to left - he got up ahead of the pointer in rush & folded with an Eley 7. Will do a video at some stage

Nice result there. Those drag handles with the rope look handy, were they a home made job?

I have a set of em myself, picked em up at the Uk shooting show. Quick bit of advice though, put it around his neck and pull in that direction. A deers hair is angled backwards so pulling from the rear legs you are going against the grain so to speak. You would be amazed but it actually makes a difference!
