Hello There Dave this Brings back memories watching this , me and my dad keepered Aitkengall and Dunglass estate many moons ago and reared all our own pheasants and partridges from day old chicks , nice to see it’s doing well and thank you for the video. The field you’re standing in on the second drive is exactly where we had our setup for rearing and was alway a very high drive with very sporting birds .

So glad I found this great channel. I’m enjoying binge watching the videos of some great shoots 🙂

Dave, your a blessinng to the field sports & country life !!! A true ambassador for us all ! Please keep it up for us all ! You are a true Gent !!! Thankyou so much 👍👍👍👍

At 74 myself, I need you at 100% to give me some hope for 2023. Just back from a couple of weeks in England and missed being able to get together with you. Great time. London at Christmas is very special.

I’m nearly on all cylinders now John- let’s have a plan for next year - a couple of days on the partridge or pheasant at a proper castle like Belvoir in so many of my films! Make some proper memories for ever👍

great work Dave love to watch these videos whilst I am sunning it in Cancun

Glad to hear you are making progress with your recovery. I appreciate that you encourage all the youth at these events. Thank you for sharing this nice shoot with us. Cheers and have a Happy Christmas.

Always great to see another one of your videos Dave, thanks for this one. Those partridges were certainly up there and moving right along in that wind. We surely know it is tough shooting with any knee issue, and I hope that your rehab is coming along well and the you regain all your strength back. With all best wishes of the Christmas Season to you and yours, Ed.

Great to see you back out & about Dave you codger. Look after yourself. Happy Christmas to you & family. It would be great to get you back to Ireland for some shooting. I know there's a great selection in the UK to choose from. Great work from gamekeepers, beaters, collectors, dogs and the enthusiasts.

thanks buddy it was a fantastic day to be out trying to catch up with these fast moving birds on the wind

Such an important point about eating game, it is delicious. On the last shoot I was on , at the end of the day the keeper asked if I wanted some game, I was last but I took the half dozen pheasants they had left; all good meat and they will be eaten throughout the year. We have to do our bit to promote game and educate people because we can't really rely on others to help us. I hope you are recovering well Dave, take care.

@@DaveCarrieShooting Hi Dave sorry for the late reply ( It was a hectic Xmas and new year shooting ect ) I tried the 3” 35 grm no-2 gamebore steel on a day and I was quite impressed to be honest! I would of liked to try the 3’s instead but I shot some nice stuff with them and didn’t really see any difference between them and lead apart from the fact I thought they were faster or felt faster than my usual cartridges,But once I figured them out and slowed myself down a bit they were producing some nice clean shots. If this is the start of the production I have no worries going forward on using steel for high Dumfries and Galloway pheasants at all. Many thanks del

If you need to use goose loads on pheasant they're out of range! I don't deny he's a good shot, I just don't think it presents well to the public.

@DaveCarrieShooting

Жыл бұрын

the public are not interested in what we are shooting at them (they do not want you to kill anything) and i do not think a 40gm 3 or 4 is a goose load!! Its a very sensible killing load (too much pricking with lighter loads such as 5s and 6s) for these type of ranges i.e. 55yd to 65yd. Thanks for your comments a debate is better than an argument👍👍
