sandersj89 0 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Thought I had better introduce myself, so here it is. Been in country sports all my life, born and raised on a farm in Devon but currently living in Sussex. Moving back to Devon this year to start taking over the farm so my parents can slip into retirement. Started of with air rifles at an early age then bought a 16bore gun when I was 14, still have it in fact and love it as a pigeon gun. Over the years the collection of guns has increased so I now have shotguns, air rifles and FAC rimfires and centrefires. I used to run my own family shoot on the farm, just a few days shooting a year with bags of 50 or so. Enjoyed the keepering side of it from catching up wild birds at the end of the reason to get the eggs, raising the poults and sunning the shoot days. Been in a pheasant syndicate in Surrey for the last few seasons but let that go this year due to the move back to Devon. Currently doing a lot of lamping for rabbit and fox on my permissions in Sussex. Used to have Springers but dogless at the moment. Likewise used to have ferrets. Time restraints mean they are not an option until we are back in Devon. Both the kids are keen beaters and even my 6 year old little girl was in the beating line most days last season. Look forward to exploring the forum. Jerry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
