A Few Woodies.

[moxy 617]

Managed a couple of hours on the woodies today. They are in good numbers around my way at the moment out on the cut hay. I don't normally see such numbers.

I had a job postpone and had the rapid with me so it was a good opportunity to have a little crack at them.

No fancy gadgets, no bipod and no hide, other than the underside of the van.

 

I dropped the first from out of the motor, re positioned it and tucked the wings in tight and put the head down.

A slow and steady stream of interested visitors landed in threes and fours, which gave a good choice of shots and the bag slowly started to grow.

 

After each bird was shot I started to assemble my pattern of decoys. Again, a reposition with the head down and wings tucked in tight.

 

I must admit. I quiet enjoyed it as usually static or hide shooting isn't my thing. If I find another good hour or two, I may be back.

 

Happy shooting

Thats a great bag for no humping all the gear with you and more enjoyable i bet

Thanks for the replies lads.

 

It was enjoyable and just goes to show that you don't need all the gear in the world. Traveling light. Lol.

 

I don't have a like button because I'm a mod but thanks anyway.
