paulus 26 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 are you sure it wasn't the local poacher and not the keeper Quote Link to post
sussex 5,777 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 That's it ,i've heard it all !! ........err..... if I supply the feeders can I join your syndicate . Quote Link to post
brucemyster 75 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm surprised he didn't offer you a couple of feeders and a seasons supply of feed as well, perhaps next year he'll put in a release pen and a couple of thousand birds to save you the trouble of having to pull them in. I can't believe the man is so thoughtless in not offering to dig a flight pond for when you get fed up with hammering the pheasants, you just can't get the staff now days!! Quote Link to post
The Seeker 3,048 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 LOOK FELLAS I HAVE NO NEED TO LIE OR SAY THINGS THAT ARNT TRUE, HOW EVER THE QUESTION STILL HAS NOT BEEN ANSWERED WHERE TO PUT FEEDERS AND WHAT FOOD TO PUT IN THEM????? LETS SEE IF ANY ONE CAN PLEASE HELP ME THANK YOU LK You may think the lads are taking the piss a bit here but it's just so rare that something like this would happen you can understand it. The game keepers sole purpose in life is to rear X amount of quality birds keep them safe from preditors and ultimately provide as many quality birds for (usually) paying clients. He will protect his birds day and night from any quarter be it fox or human so to say he's fine with you setting up some feeders on adjacent land o shoot his pheasants just seems very strange. I know one thing if I as paying £1-2K a season to be in his syndicate and found out he was dong this I would want his b*llocks on a tray. Quote Link to post

They always are mate......usually there every weekend knocking f**k out of free birds. Nobody would mind if they actually put some birds down and done a bit and then everyone could get on. But no they see it as free shooting. When i had my shoot the guy done it next door........feeders right on the march and what not. He must have lots of enemies cause people used to steal his feeders... The shoot now where i pick up has the very same problem. Every sat out doing the same bit which is a haven for birds. Last year they lined up across the fence as wee did a small drive on the boundary and they fired at birds that flew over that way....unbelieve cheek. Only consolation is none of them could hit a coo in the erse!!! Quote Link to post

I bet you felt like smacking a few heads that day. Theres sneaking a few birds and then theres taking the piss and that was at the high end mate. Nothing to do with me as i'm just picking up but i'm sure it pissed off the keeper...he seems to be quite laid back about it. I was so hoping they shot one coming this way and if it landed on our side my dog would be out quick as f**k and they could go f**k themselves for getting it back........ 1 Quote Link to post
hutchey 147 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Now it's gone so off topic ! If the guy is dumb enough to offer then that's his error. If you are happy to do it then that's your error and lack of judgement. So go off and do what you will and be happy. Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 IF its genuine and a KEEPER told you it was ok to drag his birds away and shoot them..why not ask him what to feed them, and how to go about it.. Quote Link to post
