Thought I'd better introduce myself before I continue to post.

 

I'm 38, live in Stockport and work in the oil industry. As a boy I used to love fishing with my dad and before he gave his guns up I remember going out with him shooting clays. Slowly I stopped going fishing and with work comitments the years have passed by, each one I fully intended to get back in to it. I then ended up with a shoulder problem which required an op so there was my excuse for nearly for years. Having vitually recovered from the op I have been able to go fly fishing again for the first time in years and with my dad as well so we're making up for lost time.

 

I have also joined a local shooting club where I shoot .22 rimfire prone at 25 yeard targets. I hope this will be a good way to meet other people who are interested in shooting quary which I am very interested in.

 

While the bank ballance is shite having had nearly 4 months off work, life is bloody good!

 

Hoping to contribute a bit and learn lots from this forum.

 

Cheers

 

Nick

Hello and welcome mate

hello pal do you do any feild sport

 

Cheers for the replies.

 

If that was aimed at me then appart from fishing the answer is no as of yet. I love the countryside in general and was looking for sports and activities that will get me out for the day. Obviously I have to start somewhere and it seems bloody hard to get in to field sports so I thought the best place to start will be joining a rifle club and do some clay shooting as well with the aim to meet like minded people. I enjoy target shooting anyway but it's not as nice an environment as being outside. My ideal field sport would probable be rough shooting, as with fishing I'm more in to the day out rather than coming home with loads of fish/birds.

 

Cheers
