Can sort you out a place to shoot, but you need to find someone else with a good dog to handle the country
Hell yes I'm keen if we can make it work @upnorth uplander @Barefoot
I wasn't going to volunteer you @upnorth uplander but you did spring to mind :D
I think it's time you try the valley down by the railway this year, the birds are more resident than out the front, I will just tell Rushy he can't do his longrange stuff that weekend.
You are a lucky lucky lucky bastard managing to organise that....................jealous muchlyQuote:

You don't have to break the ice first to fish here in winter . . .Quote:

If you get stuck and have a spare day or so you can come down to the BOP and tip a rooster or two over pointers or a setter, your choice

Good hunt with a top bloke and a top dog . 5 hens where pointed and flushed and only two cocks where to be sprung but no shots on for us . I got what I I came to see , a solid dog on point ! Very enjoyable We try again tomorrow ,
I've got a nice spot lined up tomorrow for you munsey, will be challenging shooting!
Munsey, an absolute pleasure to meet you after all these years, shame about the prick you turned up with :D
I hope you found what you had come to see, and you are welcome here anytime for another run up the hill. Have a safe trip home
What a trip , firstly @Barefoot thanks for your Generosity of letting us shoot your block and getting this weekend started , it's really appreciated . @ upnorth uplander what a legend , hunted me all day Saturday ,then worked to 1am , somehow got up at 3 to be wisking me away down to the bay of plenty by 8am ! even roundabouts didn't slow the uplander express :thumbsup:. Big thanks to pointer for taking the time also, to get me on to birds . Was a pleasure to watch two very good dogs work .:cool:. @Twoshotkill thanks for dropping in was nice to meet you too.
Will post some photos up in a day or two . Thanks again guys ,really meant a lot to me .
@Munsey, iv just woken up. Far Nth next time.
Try and stop me ! . I'll organise that Range Rover next time . Travel in styles bro !
@Munsey
Sorry I couldn't make your kingi trip happen and repay your kind hospitality.
It sounds like you had a ball all the same.
We not going to a driven shoot bro, leave that shit to those who only want to shoot pheasants and not actually hunt them. More like a Nissan Safari trip bro @PointerQuote:

Plus we'd look like we stole it ! A brown boy and a unshaven scruff from the south driving a rangie ! Cops be over us like bees to honey !Quote:

Ruff I learnt the difference between a pointer and a GSP on the weekend . it's about 20 minutes . Far out they are steady
Rather hunt pheasants over my dogs, if I want them to sit next to me and only do retrieves I will go duck shooting from my maimai.
Glad you enjoyed yourself Munsey. Looking forward to the pics
I essentially agree, which is why I do both!Quote:
