Re: Roost Shoot.

With pigeon, I usually just take the breast meat, sometimes I will crown the bird. In my more active pigeon shooting years almost all the birds I shot were sold to the Game Dealers, in the busy times of the year this would be 2-300 birds a week. This helped to pay for my cartridges and subsidised th...

Roost Shoot.

I received an invite to a roost shoot for last night, this was from the Gamekeeper of a Shoot I use to be a member of. The game season has finished (so no disturbing the pheasants) and the pigeons have been causing havoc on the winter rape and greens. The plan was for a dozen or so guns to meet up a...

Re: Knee surgery

Had my first therapy session at rehab this morning and they made a difference. Don't know if it was the different exercises or the electric shock from the TENs unit but it's getting better. :-D If those people are any good, they give you confidence and that is as important as the exercises. If it b...

Re: Knee surgery

Pain, stiffness, swelling,etc., is all part of the deal and we all seem to suffer different intensities and lengths of time for these. This has little to do with the effectiveness of the surgery, but more to do with ourselves. Our physiology is a factor, like how fit, agile and pain free were we bef...

Re: To the Keyboard Warriors....

I never saw any offending posts, but I have read the remaining posts. Any suggestions that this Forum is descending into a pit of Hell,is making a mountain out of a molehill. A hissy fit every 10 years is about as rough as its ever been and thats forgotten after the following weekend. Time to move a...

Re: Shotgun recommendation

Lots of good replies for you to consider. I would echo the Beretta comments, but would also recommend you look at the Yildiz. Well built, quality guns, not as fashionable as the Beretta and Benelli ,but I have been impressed with them. I would also suggest you also look at less than 1oz (or 1oz max)...

Re: Knee surgery

My understanding of the "robot" option is that it is not a robot, like on a car assemble line, it is a computer programme that "reads" the knee, marks out incision areas, and when the actual joint replacement takes place, it lines up the leg and shows exactly the best fitting pla...
