I'm aware that Hickenham Farm shoot is classed as a straw baler with no prizes, but today's shoot was very enjoyable with a good mixture of targets, no queuing, no breakdowns and only one no bird, good catering and a hundred birds all for £28.00, a good bit of practice with no pressure, went home happy, keep it up guys.

I like it there Danno, good place to go to work on your game, taking different birds first and as sim pairs and using different techniques

Thanks. Right now I'm just planning on trying to shoot regularly up until the winter and if I'm still smitten, will get certificate/buy 2nd hand gun/etc and essentially turn my Mrs into a shooting widow. She's just pleased that it's not golf.

I had this conversation with her. She's just not interested, although she does like the prospect of me eventually doing some live shooting and bringing home something worth cooking. She can see shooting is an experiential performance discipline, something that is right up my street but just not for her. She's cool with me doing it.
Looking forward to it. People seemed nice and genuine yesterday, it was a pleasure going round.
