Back up at the shoot

[Stavross 15,085]

I’ve just been to the farm to bag some wheat up, when I’d finished I pulled into the yard from the back shed where the farmer was stood talking to another farmer, not unusual you might think the other farmer had just got out of a brand new Lamborghini Urus, about 180k worth of car, in a ripped shirt and a pair of wellies and who said there’s no money in farming, I suppose it’s better than giving it to the tax man

Oh yes, you’ll never meet a rich live stock farmer, maybe the big chicken lads, but who wants to smell like chicken sh*t

Me and Bert popped out for a couple of hours this morning to try and bag my first pheasant.  It was still too warm at 20c but Bert hunted and flushed a cock pheasant which was a left to right crosser which I folded nicely. Then I hunted a rough field and bagged a hen followed shortly afterwards by a flush of 3 hens managing  to take a right and left Bert flushed another lovely cock pheasant but this one was missed , so 4 out of 5 and away home. Far too warm for the dog still.

Seeing a hell of a lot of jays recently. 

Couple weeks back heard a commotion in back garden, magpies & a jay kicking off. Went outside & a squirrel had a another jay on floor both rolling about scrapping.

That was a rare sight Ben. 

I estimate I've shot over 300 squirrels since August. 

There are more jays this year roo.

Chris Packham: Fire attack on New Forest home 'will not sway me'

Chris Packham: Fire attack on New Forest home 'will not sway me'

WWW.BBC.CO.UK

---

The broadcaster vows to continue campaigning after a suspected arson attack outside his home.

people need to stop doing this sh*t to this prick, all they are doing is giving him ammunition to use against the hunting and shooting community, he has no idea who did it but will point the finger at shooters/hunters/dog lads, anyone who doesn’t agree with his mental ideas and the bbc will give him a platform to spread these untruths

Wanker probably did it himself to gain more publicity

As u say V,m another publicity stunt from the retard which will be blamed on the shooting community. 

Trouble is his muppet following will believe him .

Trouble is, the media ( especially the BBC) give him a platform to spout his bullsh*t and because they don’t allow a counter argument from the other side, the uneducated lap it up, it’s never reported that sabs have smashed up game pen or traps or attacked members of the public because they believed they were involved in something they were against, yet some of these people are involved in organisations that packham is part of, there’s no evidence as to who did this, yet the media is happy for him to cast aspersions, it saddens me that the majority of people have lost any understanding of the countryside. Just last night me and FOXHUNTER were walking through part of my shoot and came across a woman just sat in the middle of one of my drives, she wasn’t happy to see the rifle and less happy to find out we were looking for fallow buck, after talking with her for a bit it became apparent that she was against shooting but had decided to sit in the middle of a pheasant drive, she was pleasant enough but just another example of someone who has become completely disconnected to where food should come from how it should be able to live it’s life

The world is going mad and madder by the minute.

That wouldn’t surprise me. His last attempt at changing the general license was a complete failure so he’ll be desperate to find something else to kickstart his next anti shooting campaign crowd funding. His idiot followers will no doubt be feeling sorry for him.
