Great to hear that a lot of shoots at the moment are exercising restraint on shooting woodcock. We have exercised the same restraint on our family and friend run shoot in Hertfordshire. A wonderful game bird that needs help in recovery and does not want to disappear from our shoots all over the country. People could learn a lot from these vids, showing how much work is done by the shooting fraternity to help maintain the way that the countryside is today. Great video!
I am an American waterfowl and big game hunter. I have to say that your videos are some of my favourite to watch. I love the sense of tradition and the meaning surrounding your videos. Will hopefully visit your part of the world one day for a pheasant or grouse shoot. Many thanks
Lovely video nice to see Crow up in Gods country. Your tribute to the old Gentleman and the introduction to the two young lads really made this video special thank you Dave Carrie.
As a keen 'young' shot myself I really do appreciate how important it is to bring the younger generations into the shooting community. I am now 18, held a section 2 license since I was 13 and been on shoots since I was 8(beating and shooting). I went straight to 20b at 10 which was a old Spanish sable side by side. Recently progressed to a 12b macnab highlander O/U and loving it!!! Keep up the great videos, I'll be following you!
Great video,Dave seems like a real nice bloke,I always found growing up not many people gave us kids the time of day,that can’t be said for this bloke.love that
Well Dave another great video on a days shooting. Highlight for me was yourself Mark & Andy congratulating/thanking the two young lads at the end. I always had two lads with me on a beating day, teaching them all about what the day entailed. Always gave up my gun on beaters day, with me as coach to the young ones. Would it not be a great thing for yourself & Mark to go that little bit further and get those two lads a lesson or two on the clay’s. I know you go above and beyond most shooters to highlight Game Shooting. But get them hooked now, and they will be shooters for ever. Again well done Dave & team.
Dave Carrie Shooting Dave thanks for your reply. My question to the young ones in the beating line, was are you here for the money or the enjoyment. Always tried to help those who said enjoyment. Took them pigeon shooting, helping me fill bags of wheat, and then going feeding. Which they always enjoyed to the maximum. Would have stayed all day if they could.
Dave, another great video. I organize a team of American guns who shoot at Ripley every other year. We love spending our time, and money, in beautiful Yorkshire. Keep up the great work.
Very good to hear about the Woodcock and the self imposed conservation measures ,proper sportsman and country people My Son shot his first snipe this year and told me it will be his last I was delighted to hear that from an 18 year old !!
I'm a Yank and I enjoy nothing better then a day in the field with just myself, my dog and my gun. I hunt mostly pheasant locally and ruffed grouse in the woods of the north. Sometimes I get a bonus quail or woodcock. I hunt to get away by myself. But I think it's great that these folks can get together and organize a hunt day as a group.
Fantastic Video, I love the fact that you are a true family man as well as a shooting man. I hope you continue to make these videos education and aspiring the old and the young in to our sport, to you and yours cheers.
Great video Dave as always i think there’s nothing better than being out in the country side with family and good friends, memorable day here was had by all,, the clip in the video about Des Mills was a lovely touch he is smiling down on us all shooting men and women, also your camera man deserves a well earned mention too fantastic film work, I would love to see the 2018 bloopers at years end I’d say it would be a best seller,, maybe start off a Des Mills cup in memory of Des ?
Great video Dave, I’ve been watching your videos for a couple of months now and thanks to you I’m coming back to shooting after two or three years off. You do a grand job in promoting shooting both clays and game.
Dave I just want to say, being a cameraman myself, how wonderfully put together your videos are. They’re fabulous and keep up the great work and shooting.
Great video dave I really enjoy watching you shoot you all ways perform encredibley well. Good to see andy crow and mark winser shooting as well I am big fans of both. Looking forward to the next video.
Great video Dave , would love to see you over here in Ireland sometime to try some of the West coast shooting in Ireland , tough weather but even tougher shooting. Excellent work keep it up , god bless from your Irish fans.
Sorry to hear of the passing of Des Mills, a good life well lived. Unchallenged as a master craftsman of the great British bespoke gun making heritage. A lovely “Gone Away “ R.I.P. Des.
Great video Dave , some cracking shooting there, them pheasants that got past unscathed have to be the luckiest birds in the world with carrie crow and winser on the triggers ,,
Brilliant.Quality shootable birds for mortals.Portrayed the feel good factor and camaraderie possible in shooting really well. Winser poetry in motion.His dog must be a trip to have to use a tree and a cargo strap to stop him Lol.Just funnin'.Crowman beaming says it all really.Glad to see he is using safer chokes for bigger loads in the F16.Looks like M and IM.

Hi Dave from one Yorkshire man to another great shoot in gods country. My two lads have been beating today and have got beaters day next weekend. Keep doing the videos coming really enjoying regards colin
How wonderful it must be too have the money to do something that you love and are so passionate about. Would really love a go at this, but this is just way out off the league of working class people. Great video lads.
thanks for your nice comments, at least there is no hint of jealousy there only a wish to take part one day, i hope you realize your dream!! and i suspect if game shooting carries on growing like it is now!! then i am sure cheaper days will start to appear for the lads
I often hear that this type of shooting is beyond the working class, most of the lads I shoot with are working class like myself welders,plasterers, roofers, mechanics, brickies ect.used to shoot a lot in the eighties Wales and Norfolk, Shropshire it wasent cheap then but we all would work nights weekends to put a bit by every week to pay for our days out.I drink very little didn't have time for the pub didn't I smoke either 2 mortgages and kids to bring up.Sound like a rete boring barstuard 😂 just saying it can be done but there are sacrifices to be made. Shot from Devon , the borders, highlands in the last few years not cheap but I wont be lying in that bed about to croak wishing I hadn't done it!! Great video as usual Dave best on here by far, l love the music very fitting, theirs a lot of thought time,ect going into the production and it shows. Nice to see that soft southerner Crow in the shooting,regards Pete.
great video Dave,tha cant tek that Wombwell twang from thi no matter how long its bin....great commentary Dave and i think thats why folk relate to thi ;-)
Re your remarks about wildlife flourishing in a keepered area.I live in North Staffordshire not too far from a large private shoot.People are remarking about the herds of deer both red and roe that are now in the area and wondering why.We,the shooting community, know why they are thriving in the controlled,private,calm and undisturbed environment that the keepers ensure is constant.My old syndicated shoot had butterflies and insect life that spraying had eradicated elsewhere and I have stood and watched boxing hares happily doing their stuff unnoticed and unwatched by no one but me.Mobility problems and financial constraints mean I can`t do anything like as much shooting as I used to but long may it continue.
410 is too restrictive for youngsters 28 gives much better patterns and youngsters will start hitting stuff more quickly and consistently, if they miss too much this can cause them to pack in
Will do Dave even took her to an evening flight pond which she loved. Took a Teal from my dogs mouth and carried it back to the truck. A feather is now in her memory box! Not a great flight but best evening I've ever had.
Dear Mr. Carrie, with my comment I wanted to say that I really like your movies. That seems to have gone awry because of my below-average English. I apologize. I appreciate your work very much! Best regards Klaus Ameling
why is that Paul? when everything else survives because of shooting, we only shoot the surplus, what do you do personally that helps all the finches and mammals through the harsh winter months??

What a beautiful insight into traditional country pursiuts with the inclusion of preserving both wild life and the sport for future generations.
Great to hear that a lot of shoots at the moment are exercising restraint on shooting woodcock. We have exercised the same restraint on our family and friend run shoot in Hertfordshire.

Very good to hear about the Woodcock and the self imposed conservation measures ,proper sportsman and country people
My Son shot his first snipe this year and told me it will be his last I was delighted to hear that from an 18 year old !!
Brilliant that your son has experienced the thrill of a snipe and at the same time decided to conserve them👍

Thankyou
Hi Dave from one Yorkshire man to another great shoot in gods country. My two lads have been beating today and have got beaters day next weekend. Keep doing the videos coming really enjoying regards colin

Another great video, you have set the bar high, on the quality of the filming and content. sad news about your old friend Desmond
thanks Andrew
Great video as always.
Just out of interested why is 28g better to start on than 410?
they will hit more clays/targets as beginners thus encouraging ! not discouraging, 410 is a expert shots gun
Great videos by a proper Chap! Nice tribute too.
keep enjoying Stevie
Mr. Crow cleans up pretty nice!
great video Dave,tha cant tek that Wombwell twang from thi no matter how long its bin....great commentary Dave and i think thats why folk relate to thi ;-)
thanks
how many shots are taken during a day out of curiosity
on average bag days (150 -175 birds) showing very good birds with a mixed team of varying skill - anything from 650 - 900 shots
Nice to see you .. thanks
I cant be the only one that thinks Andy has a likeness to Sean Bean!
bang on the mark !
excellent video as always dave, really sad news about des mills, what a gentleman he was
thanks for the kind words
Rest In Peace, Des.
Good to see that Mark and Andy are both human. (missing! 🤣)
Thanks
as far as i can tell that hotel was in bridlington not far from me but where was that first and second peg ?

alan ward
spot on Alan well said - l hope it isn’t too late to save it all, once it’s gone it ain’t never coming back
Brilliant video still dont like the music over the shooting though I like the natural music of the guns banging
noted ! and thanks for the input
Well done!!!!!
thanks
Nice film. Out of interest why is a 28 a better starter gun than a .410?
410 is too restrictive for youngsters 28 gives much better patterns and youngsters will start hitting stuff more quickly and consistently, if they miss too much this can cause them to pack in
Couldn't agree more took my little girl who's four beating this year. She loved it even though we had a 100acre muddy field to cross.
keep her going Shaun
Will do Dave even took her to an evening flight pond which she loved. Took a Teal from my dogs mouth and carried it back to the truck. A feather is now in her memory box! Not a great flight but best evening I've ever had.
Just watched this again, made my heart cry for Yorkshire.
gods own country
Rip Desmond. Legend..Loader!!
true
Unfortunately, I can press the thumb up button only once
me too
Dear Mr. Carrie,
with my comment I wanted to say that I really like your movies. That seems to have gone awry because of my below-average English.
I apologize.
I appreciate your work very much!
Best regards

Cruel people.
why is that Paul? when everything else survives because of shooting, we only shoot the surplus, what do you do personally that helps all the finches and mammals through the harsh winter months??
