  • As the new season begins, we thought we would look back at the end of the last one!
    This is Beaters Day, the last day of the season at the shoot where Ant is a Gamekeeper - it was (as always) a day to remember.
    Enjoy!

    Your video production quality and content is so good! Just a joy to watch. So glad you’ve been able to make the move to doing this full time and not having to be running a shop as well. Would you ever do a TV series as opposed to just UA-cam. I’d love a mass audience to see this side of hunting and shooting and get a better understanding of what we do and why we do it. Keep up the great work. Cheers, Anthony from Australia.

    As an American....
    I think you have something special with the community you have working together. We could use some more of that.
    And I am amazed at the dress code and that someone doesn't get shot.

    • @tgsoutdoors
      @tgsoutdoors  11 місяців тому

      The group aspect of driven bird hunts is truly special.
      The dress code is about the best thing ever. If I could wear it every day I would!

    • @tgsoutdoors
      @tgsoutdoors  11 місяців тому

      And it’s extremely safe, with correct gun handling and shooting safety being drummed into everyone at the beginning of every day and even the slightest mistake will have you sent home.

    I really enjoy your videos, as being an Ex-Pat from Warwickshire, I get to see the beautiful English countryside again bring back fond memories.
    I’ve been into shooting field sports for nearly 62 years and I’m still shooting.
    Four years ago, I got re introduced to pheasant beating by my good friend Andy who has been beating at Craigmore Station in Canterbury, NZ for some years. Like you said, the atmosphere amongst the beaters can be entertaining.
    I discovered some thirty years ago, it’s not about numbers of birds harvested, but the quality of the shooting! So, after taking the bag limit of ducks off Lake Ellersmere one day, I traded my Baikal OU for a black powder muzzle loading 12g shotgun. So now on beaters day, my Johnathan Jones percussion shotgun comes out, but if it’s raining, I use my Husqvarna SxS hammer gun shotgun. Both shotguns use the same load of 84grn FF BP and 1&1/4oz bismuth, because I won’t put steel though my old shotguns!
    So, thank you Donald, for sending this link.
    I am now hoping to see more of your shooting videos from now on 😊…Richard T.

    " The memories you make with these are very special"- well said Jonny. We all enjoy carrying our favorite shotgun in the field, no matter what the make, design, etc. Memories are what its all about. Great video gentlemen. Thanks from Missouri, USA

    One of your best videos in terms of production, information and pathos. I did have a tear in my eye towards the end but that was offset by the anticipation that the season on our two small shoots starts in three weeks time and all of the work we have put in through spring and summer will hopefully be rewarded.

    This channel is my only exposure to British shooting and I must say, it looks like a lot of fun. Visually it is so distinct. I don't know if I've ever seen such an abundance of drab-colored clothing in one place. I honestly wondered if the whole film had been shot in sepia! :) And the neckties!!! It makes me giggle and smile and even feel a bit envious. Thanks for the fun footage!

    When I started beating back in the 70’s we were issued with wooden clackers and generally no one was allowed to talk or shout in the beating line. When we were told to make a noise the call we all used was “Heh Up” which I still use.

    I’ve been an expat for over two decades now, but before that I was a member of a couple of shoot syndicates for a few years, nothing fancy (do it yourself, mostly)
    This wonderful video brought back such fond memories, of the enjoyment and camaraderie to be had sharing the sport with like minded friends and associates, and the beauty of well managed British countryside.

    Very interesting, I've never seen a drive shoot like this and didn't even know of it's existence till this popped up in my recommended. Also if you have to go to using non-toxic shells, look at bismuth or tungsten loads for any of those shotguns, it shoots similar to lead!

    Environmental friendliness aside, I switched to non-tox a few years back. Mostly shooting BOSS bismuth, and my bismuth reloads. Wish our steel over here would kill more reliably. The more people shoot it, the more the manufacturers invest into R&D, the better the shell becomes. Likely, you've seen this firsthand in the UK.

It seems to me a bit ridiculous the moment when you stand 10 meters from the boxes claping your hands waiting to shoot literaly flying chickens! 😂

    I have just bought a new beretta o/u and noted that nearly everyone on the shoot seemed to be carrying one of some hue or other and no side by side to be seen. My guess is the pheasants might prefer the older guns if it meant a few more got away but of course many a pheasant has been brought down with parallel barrels too.!!

    #1 Awesome video! Great production quality
    #2 If you have to shoot non toxic, look in to Bismuth, denser than steel and soft like lead so you don’t damage barrels in older guns. In America I shoot ducks and geese with 5s, it’s quite effective.
    3# you should come on a duck & pheasant hunt in the states. Just to see some of the differences. It’s rather drastic! I hunt at an outfitter where we duck hunt in the mornings and quail hunt in the afternoons and we would love to have you out. Just UA-cam some “duck hunting Arkansas”
