I see what your saying mate and yes I spose they would put a few birds up It ain't the same as nicking a mans tools tho imho I dont care what anyone says Edited October 20, 2019 by Black neck Spelling Quote Link to post

two crows 3,342 Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 I used to put 10,000 pluss partridges a year down and run 22 days shooting and often I would feed after the day, before going for a drink, and most birds were back in the strips, you could often see them flying back while picker ups were working, before I was on there I had permission to course it and was on at first light one Saturday and later on saw them having a shoot lol never matered and I never told the boss he is dead now god rest him.
