  1. Always got something to say ya daft c**t a can't just write something without ya shit
  2. A lot of farms run of springs where I am, but our water is on springs from burns to pens if there's a burn near by,
  3. A lot of birds generally roost where they was released, (pen) and whistle fed birds you feed at one for so long, then gradually move them a bit each day after a period of time, say a week in and around the pen, then slowly move them and whistle them to the drive, then eventually just fed in the drive, crop or wood, so they will fly to there from roost,
  4. In a beating line you will have 2 flanks, which are the sides, and a back line, when the flanks are in place the back will close in, and as the back links up with the flanks, everyone closes in slowly, stopping as birds get up, and this is what puts them over the guns, general in a pheasant drive is where you feed the birds, you will have a feed ride on the middle of a crop or wood depends on your drive, and whistle them back to feed them, if They're hopper fed the hoppers will be in a drive. This is a rough idea mate hope this is a help!
