Not me! No one invites me anywhere. Is this the same king who got in trouble for going elephant hunting?

Sorry Peter

May be I did not worded my thread correctly

it's a live pigeon competition near Madrid and its considered as the cream de la cream
Like the world championship

First prize can be USD 100,000 or 75,000 euro

Anybody can participate and pay the entry fees (750 eurp) but of course there are enclosures that is only by invitation

Time to get the fabbri out ....

Peter

You are very very welcome to come as guest to shoot hunt and compete with us on the European circuit

Lots of fun, lots of shooting and lots of cartridges .....

And I suspect, lots of money! Is live pigeon shooting where they release live pigeons from a trap in the middle of a circle and you have to shoot it before it flies out of the circle? Hate to say it, but it does not appeal to me. Now driven game on a Scottish moor with Pippie Middleton (or whatever her name is)is more in line with what I would like.
