Speaking of tunneling, I've been looking at one of these

Not altogether in the traditional English style granted, but I'd rather explain this at the larder than the neon buttplug thing....

I must have been asleep during the DSC course

Nobody ever mention anything about tunneling to me. Must be for very advance stalker only............


I fear for our safety this weekend with Ghubert loose on the estate.

Ben,

There is no way you have stalked at LongParish, and did your DSC1 with CH without being shown how to gralloch properly.

Sorry lost your there ...........

What is long parish

It was at WH with CH.

Amir based on your advice I went and have this made for you my friend a real tunneling machine

Guys,

It looks like Amir has the larder sorted.

For those shooting pigeons on Sunday, shells are available from the estate at normal local prices. For those in the UK that will be bringing shells with them, I would bring a slab of 250 with you to be on the safe side. I'm' not sure whatthe weather is doing, and I'm no way guaranteeing you will shoot them all but mowed cover crops can be some of the most productive shooting especially in hard weather.

Anders, I will bring you some 20g shells (28g of 5's or 6's if that is OK?

I'm off to the airport so will log in again tonight or tomorrow.

Rgds,
K

Now back to extra curriculum activities

Hi guys, I've just gotten back from Suffolk and we truly had a blast.

A finer bunch of folk one could not hope to meet.

Most of the boys will still be out there at the moment trying to shoot some pigeons, yesterday was a stalking day though Kiri and Gerry bunked off to take advantage of a hare drive on the estate with 80 Italians spread about the countryside keeping the pigeons going all day.

I need some sleep now but I can safely say there will be some interesting stories forthcoming....

Once again, it was a pleasure and an honour to meet the bunch of lads we had out this week last, good hunting and see you all soon.

REgards,

Amir

Safe home again to 12 below zero and snow.
Had an absolutely top notch weekend with some old and a lot of new friends.
Thanks to Amir who got me to Stansted in time for the early flight to Trondheim.
Looking forward to the write up

Looking forward to hear the stories and see the pics

Nice to meet you all again, here's to the 4th AR Euro weekend.

and to Gerry's proposal

Hey guys,

Good to hear that everyone had a good time and got home safely. Final count was 42 deer (Muntjac and Roe). with a couple of half decent bucks shot. I have two in my chiller only one of which I shot!!

We also nearly had a Greek boy and an ex-pat american in the various column on Saturday mng, afer taking a good run at the brandy and port on Friday night!! What should have been a 100 bird pigeon day ended up at about 25 picked and a few lost birds.

Over all a great time had by all and I think we should probably do it again!! Just not the Friday night bit....

K

I got home mid afternoon on Sunday. Had a good weekend meeting some old and new faces.

I had a nice little munty buck on Friday evening and a doe on Saturday morning. Blanked on Saturday night.

Thanks to Kiri for hosting this again.

Gerry, think pigs.....

The muntjac:

Brian,

That's a couple of good looking rifles there...

Hmmm, fortunately for me, our tastes in rifles seem to coincide. Thanks for the loan.

Thanks for posting Brian, at least someone was good enough to post pics for the poor unfortunates who could'nt go!
good shooting

Congratulations fellas, looks like you all had fun again!!

Nice pics mate! Not bad for knockabout loaner rifles I guess...

Amir - we're still expecting a full rundown of events...

I just want to say I enjoy the company very very much and exchanged wonderful views from experience hunters from all around Europe.

I would like to say special thanks to Fallow buck for organising this yearly event.

I am sorry to say my pigeon count is in the single figure - CLASS D shooter .....

Deer hunting was great I shot my quota very qucikly

85 yards
160 yards
280 yards

I made a wrong call on my third deer mistaking a buck for a doe and that was the shortest shot at 85 yards.

I must confess I am not that experience in identification ...hahahaha

Anders I hope you and Mr G got to the airport OK and the Afghani taxi driver did not slip something in your bags If you read this in jail please PM and I will come with bail money and takeaway ............ahahhhaa I did find you that taxi driver after all

KR - Have you recovered from the Marsh walk about?

Gerry - Last I heard from him he was hunting along the M1 looking for Muntjacs siome 24 hours after the hunt had finished ...............Do let us know how you get on please my dear friend

Ghubert - you need a smaller tunnelling machine my friend.

Solvi we have a date next spring on the ice OK ? please PM me

And to everybody else thank you and count me in for the next venue whatever is the quarry.

Fallow buck can we shoot something angry and growling ?

It has been a pleasure and honour to be allowed into this group.

Since everybody will be posting their deer and rifles pcitures;

As usual with all my hunting experiences visiting local historical places is a must for me

So here we are during the break I and KR sneeked out for a walk about in Bury St. Edmunds

Hi guys
Mr. G and myself arrived safely in our little town on 3 o'clock at night. Thanks Ben for giving us a lift. That was very very nice of you!

Thanks to everyone for great company, and to Kiri for organizing this for us. I had a wonderful time, as always! And I can't wait for the next event.

This is all for now, as I have some work to catch up with, but I hope to be able to post some pictures tomorrow.

In the meantime I'll be sneaking in to see pictures and jokes made of the other participants.

Anders,glad y'all made it!Ben&ikept thinking y'all would spend the night @Heathrow but i didnt see you monday@0600.Kiri,thanks againfor all the work&that 243-works too well.Gerry-think:EINSTEKLAUF!Thanks to all for looking out for the Yank.BEST,kim

Folks,

Sorry to have missed this opportunity - looks as though all had a grand time, with deer galore.

Looking forward to seeing you all on AR UK #4!

In the meantime - best wishes to all our friends.

Ian & Jo

Some photos of my week..

My fallow doe from Holtye shot at very last light, just as Kiri and Gerry shouted my name in hopes of getting me to leave my stand. Of course I didn't listen to them, and took the shot..



At the Whitehorse pub we were treated with giant lunches..



The "castle" at Gt. Livemere. A great place to stay!



I was very fortunate to shoot four muntjacs the very first evening out. That put me on the paying list immideatly..



The biggest buck. Unfortunatly one of it's antlers were broken at the base. The teeth were mostly intact, and it will make a nice scull mount.



After dinner the fluids and jokes made for good atmosphere..



This isn't weather suited for pigeon decoying. Solvi smile nontheless..



A couple of the pigeons I managed to bring down from high above. Honestly I shot only three..

Kiri, once again, thanks for organising a blast of a weekend. My first AR get together but I'm sure it won't be my last.

Anders, I know you have a ton more photos. If you can upload them to a public album somewhere and post the link here it would be great. I know I'd love see them. Others probably would as well.


cheers all,
stu

Stu,

You're welcome mate. I liked the idea of an AR shotgunning weekend for a group up there, so as my french friend says "let me know if it fancies your tickle!!"

It was a shame the pigeons didn't play ball as it would have been a great way to round off the weekend but that's hunting. At least Gerry and I scared a few the day before to prove they were about!!

K

Kiri,

Thank you again for hosting and organizing our 3rd Annual AR Weekend!

It was a super weekend and I really enjoyed it; making new friends and of course; visiting with friends who (too many to name) have attended previously.

Kiri, thanks for the invitation & opportunity to hunt your Ground; the results are the "Did you Shoot from the Seat?" Fallow Doe.



Our efforts after a long-g-g night prior, a few too many squeezes of the grape and looking into the bottom of a whiskey bottle ..... the first load of #6's was a real "brain-rattler".



The muntjac were numerous .....

quote:

Gerry - Last I heard from him he was hunting along the M1 looking for Muntjacs siome 24 hours after the hunt had finished ...............Do let us know how you get on please my dear friend

and Benjamin; yes, I was successful on Monday evening; even after discovering when I looked out the window on Monday morning at 04:30 that there was 4" of new snow, not condusive for hunting Asian Deer - Thanks for asking, Pal. Sadly; his left Canine is broken off about halfway; from scrapping about - these Muntjac are aggressive little beasts.



What a great weekend, can't wait to do it again!

Yes, I've already made a call to Bavaria, spoken on Voice Mail and am awaiting a response - I'll keep you posted.

Kiri, thanks for a great weekend! I really enjoyed it a lot hope to be back one day to shoot a throphy fallow and some more munties! A shotgun weekend would be good aswell.

Benjamin, thanks alot making sure me and anders made us safe back to the airport just in time! Doubt we would have made it if we went with the taxi all the way.

Gerry, happy now? I got my display name changed

I'll see if i can get some photos posted here later as well.

Cheers all!

Congratulation Gerry, what a great trophy!
Enjoyed meeting up with you and the other guys as well, what a bunch of great minds

And Kiri...as the others have said, I tip my hat to the work you have done getting this weekend possible

Hey Gerry, I like the photo. I guess you had every reason to hide the bloodshot eyes behind dark glasses on that morning.

Brian, Gentlemen & Claire,

For those of you who were present on Friday evening in the Dinning Room where a potential AR excursion was deliberated and know what I am referring to; here some Good News.

I just received an answer to this morning's telephone call to a Forst Director in Bavaria who very kindly informed me that our plans for this Fall in Germany can come to fruition.

The dates for said engadgement will be forthecoming in the July timeframe - Stay Tuned.

Waidmannsheil!
