i dont know about where you are but around here its all osr and spring barley that was drilled last year so will have to wait till after harvest for fresh drilling and then it will only be a rotation from one to the other

Great toohear of a shooter who only likes the easy shooting I would be well p off after spending all winter chasing the woodies on the OSR to have you rock up and shoot the the good shooting.

 

Makes me laugh when shooters cry about being unable to get bags on the OSR

 

Good luck hope you dont find any drilling
