Shooting Update
Just another quick update called to one of my local permissions that were having a bit of a rat problem by damaging bales of haylage to the degree that they were unusable,as I am shooting on my own at the moment due to my shooting partner having had a spine operation it is quite difficult to cover the problematic areas of the barns I found out a few of the hot spots and laid in wait after around four hours I managed to shoot ten and miss quite a few more due to the pens being full of cattle and sheep.
You can view my video of the shoot here

Shooting Update January 2013
Evening All
Another quick update.well my shooting partner is still recovering from a spine operation and will be out of action for about six months or so.
Last night I called to one of our rat shooting permissions at Pontsticill last time I was there before Christmas there were not that many around so I was not that hopeful, well after about an hour or so I managed to shoot five two I managed to record and you can see the short recording on my Video Page.

Shooting Update 10/1/13
Evening All
Just a short update as there really isn't that much to report at the moment,my shooting partner has gone into hospital for a spine operation so I am flying (shooting) solo for a while,I called to one of my rat permissions locally that numbers have pretty much been on the increase over the last couple of weeks so armed with my NiteSite NS50 Nightvision I had a look around the usual haunts for signs of the scaly tails, well after two hours I only saw one I had a shot and missed, but I saw two rabbits feeding in one of the fields just on the limit of my nightvision which is approximately sixty yards or so so I left them there packed up all of my shooting gear and headed home for an early night .
Hopefully next week I will have a better night as I am heading to another permission
