Sweeney-Todd 208 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Hi Andy. Nice write up, sounds like a good outing that, rapid fire too Shame the pics didnt come out to well for you.

pianoman 3,587 Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Great read Andy And sounds like an idyllic evening's shooting for you and your friend. Some nights out in the fields are such pure magic; I wouldn't miss them for anything; even if I came home without so much as a cotton tail scut. I love to watch low sunlight play over and across the landscape, lighting it against a dark grey sky of thunder and rain, and whatever wildlife comes your way, even if you are forbidden to shoot it or, you have the full go-ahead. Don't spare details mate, people like to read of a good hunting foray; with or, without a bag of bunnies. If there's some dissenting voice who thinks it's boring, bollocks to him. Let's see his write up make a better read! Bet you 'owt you never will mate Keep writing of your shooting mate. All the best. Simon Quote Link to post
