Thread: Game bird diary for all

I got 13 pari's on fri night and 4 mallard hens . I then went out again on sun evening and got another 15 pari's. It's a bit annoying when you only have three shots when a mob of 10 comes in.

Yeah mate. All day trying to keep a lid on him, expecting the wheels to fall off. Perfect control all day. A joy

No way, hes my mainstay! hahaha

Got this fulla tonight, was great fun, my dogs were up a hill and working hard with me and a mate waiting below, put out 5 hens at this spot before a rooster escaped out left, bugger we thought and started to walk off, then this one went as well, and fell cleanly to a long high shot, and was then nicely retrieved down the hill, I was rapt

Nice bird

That has to be over 30 bars. Have you counted?

Yeah, it was 35, massive spurs as well

Now thats a nice tail! Well done hillcimba

Sounds like a nice shot too, a nice high bird

Don't no much about roosters but that bird got my attention ,hes a beauty

Thats a wicked tail on that bird hillclmba, what would a trophy tail be counted at? If that makes sence?

Thanks guys still haven't plucked it as it's such a beauty of a bird seems a shame. I used to hear 30 bars was good but I think that's a bit small as not that uncommon, I think 35 is a good bird but you do get birds up to 40 bar so that'd be a beauty tail!
