A trip to the flat lands

[Stavross 15,349]

So yesterday I went down to Lincolnshire to catch up with some mates, the intention was to start off with the ducks but that didn’t come to much due to a serious lack of water, although I was a bit down the lad organising it couldn’t apologise enough and has invited me back down later in the season for a duck flight on a private estate and the out on the geese next stop was some ruff shooting with the rifles and a bit of everything here, good fun. By now it was just starting to get dark so it was time for a kebab and a natter before we headed out after the gingers, now it was very bright and there wasn’t a breath of wind but we made the best of what we had, we decided that we both would shoot, taking turns, I like this, it’s good when there’s a couple of you shooting with a bit of banter, although we seen 11 we only managed 4, 2 each with no misses, we had one each that we both had to push the distance a fair bit due to the moon but the .243 still made a proper mess of it, with a bit of luck I’ll be back down there for another go at the foxes in the not too distant future and anything else they’ll let me have a go at

Nice little trip Stavross, and a good result on Charlie considering the bright conditions . Did you have extra chilli sauce on the Kebab ? .  

[Sausagedog 7,381]

You know what, I haven’t had a kebab in years and it’s a bit of a night out ritual with that lads down there before shooting and yes I went chilli mental and told him to hold the salad, it was bloody handsome 

one thing I forgot to mention was the sticks ( tripod) I was using, my mate got a lend of them from Scott County to do a review on them, they are Rekon 260 rips edition, they are unbelievable they are like shooting off a bench but standing up, you have got no chance of pulling a shot because nothing moves, I thought, I’ve got to have some of these, then I was told the price, fu*k me, I almost fell over. £599, I would lay on my back with my legs in the air and you could rest your rifle on my bollocks for that price

I’ve never understood why people think you can’t shoot them in a full moon, you can shoot them in day light admittedly we would of had more with cloud cover but if it was easy it would be boring

Born and raised on the edge of Linc's. Still spend a lot of time there. I generally haven't much good to say about the f***ing place. 

However, it's a quiet part of rural England. Often you can feel completely alone there (in a good and bad way). Walking out early doors under that big sky has a charm I've only come to appreciate since leaving.
