The Small Things Game Shoot 

I live in a rural part of southwest Va in the States, I came upon your channel due to my love of guns; you asked on one of your videos about wearing a tie to respect the birds, or the hunt so to speak! In my opinion, I love the tradition you have vs what we don’t have here in America! Keep hold of your traditions, cling to them, because at the end of the day, it’s all we have! I absolutely love your passion for fine guns, cheap or expensive, and I feel it every time I watch your videos! I don’t have a Longhorn, but I can dream, and still find enjoyment in my first shotgun, the Winchester Ranger 120, I think you own one as well! Keep doing what you do, with humor, respect, and passion, your doing a great job, and it’s appreciated!

This sort of shooting needs to be put out there more, so thanks for posting this! It is about what it really should be about: having a good time with your mates out in the country, and putting good sustainable meat on the table.

No joke, i absolutely loved watching that. Not only because i actually think i would be able to afford to go on a shoot like this, but because it seemed a bit more down to earth. I love seeing the big shoots. But for someone like myself they are more aspirational rather than this type of shoot that seems totally attainable. Top marks!

That looked a right laugh😂. Great them small bore days loving the bisto gravy, !!!😂👏

I am 80 years of age and have been shooting for 68 years, lovely video, these small days are the ones you remember and treasure ! Regards Mick Hicks.

The sudden urge to buy a 20bore has come over me. Had a few Mayes that shoot game with a 20 rather than a 12 "game gun" they've said they are more fun and feel more complete. Watching this proves them right!

"Most importantly, unforgettable." That says it all. Great video.

Went out this morning with my dad and walked up ducks along a stream. He was using a 28 bore loaded with bismuth 5s, and I used my 20 bore sided by side with steel 3s. He shot a mallard drake going away at thirty yards and it crumpled when he pulled the trigger. I knocked down a left to right crosser at an honest sixty yards. Small bores are by no means slouches, and they are fun!

LOOKS LIKE A PERFECT DAY. Lovely venue fantastic shoot

-3! Might need a jumper 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Until Covid came along I used to drive up once a year from Devon to Rutland for a day on a friend's hobby shoot. Often I didn't shoot anything; once I never even fired a shot. But it was always good fun and good company. And when I did shoot something it was all the more satisfying.

Shoots with out the "upper class snobbery" are always more fun , bunch of like minded blokes with banter wins hands down

As long as it's with people you like, it will always be special regardless of the size of the shoot. Wish I could have been there to "test out" the CF Liversidge 20 bore hammer gun. That way Ryan M. might have had some company. 😂 Well hopefully not. I noticed Ryan L. interviews about as well as I do. Maybe a few drinks would liven him up. 🙈 [Insert picture of Jonny and Royan on the patio at the Belle and Dragon]. Looked like a great time. Smaller shoot days are definitely underrated. With the end of the season coming up soon, I hope you all get another day or two out.

So glad you're promoting small enjoyable days guys. It's getting back generally to where things used to be, good for nature, sustainable, and more importantly acceptable to the general public. Great stuff👍

Looks like a great day. I’d say a little shoot like that would be a lot more personal than a big shoot 👌.

I have shot here, about 5 years ago, brilliant little shoot, really memorable. Tried to buy another peg, but alas, never has anything for sale on guns on pegs at least.

I've shot on some of the great great estates on some reasonably big days and some amazing birds and ground, but a small bore, small bag day with great guys and girls are the second best you'll get, walked up on the same small estate at the end of the season, with your dog and game bag make the finale to the season. keep up the great content guys, on all your channels, your are the best ambassadors we could wish for.

What a wholesome shoot. It's nice to see some shooting for the every man.

What a great depiction. And view on how it just works.

This morning s dog walk was -8 🤣 so yeah your -3 is hilaruous 🤩 amazing shoot, as a driven shoot Virgin, that is definitely the version I d go for =) great stuff as usual 👍

Hello TGS, I also believe that shooting is going to be small days with anything from 30 to 100 bird days and distributed between the guns and beaters so nothing goes to waste.

Always good to see Our Dave! Nice to see he eventually recovered from firing the 4 bore! Hope you are well mate!

my buddy and I + on a farm in Devon, + two Spaniels and nothing else,= many great days, all you need is a good farmer who respects his land and you only shoot enough to feed yourselves. used to also thoroughly enjoy a days beating on some of the "High Bird" shoots in N Devon. Too far away and too old now. :-)

This must be one of the best to date, a day out for the working man great video

Superb film! Thank you for sharing, please keep them coming!

A Proper shoot with some sound comments from the Keeper.

Might I add we love our English Breeds of Pointers and Setters it’s what we use over here quite a different way to hunt, where we walk up and flush our birds to shoot, like I said if you are ever in the Eastern United States you have an open invite, I also manage a Gunshop

Watched this episode quite a few times. Quality day out 👍

Fair play Ryan for the 410 even if it did break,I've offered mine out to mates on my keepers day for the last 10 years but still no takers!!!,they don't know what they're missing.great vid boys

I shot there a few years ago, had a great day, shot my first ever partridge there, that walk up that hill is no joke, had me blowing a bit, great video again, well done👍👍

Nice to see Dave, he sold me my Niko Shadow when he worked at the shop. The new job must suite him as he looks really well. Very best wishes

What a nice shoot! Great seeing Dave on camera again.

Looks like a great time so different from the way we hunt in the U.S. don't get me wrong we have a good hunt here too it's just nice to see the way you guys do it great video

MAN! What a great day afield. My pal's made great sport of me for taking up the 410 some years back. A gang of us from work went on a Asian collared dove shoot on a state lease. At the end of the day I had six rounds left and a full bag {15}. And a hole lot less less talk about my "kid gun". The 410 round is so much better today. I shoot the Federal Game Shock at 1340 fps and 11/16 oz of #7.5. Good shooting keep stacking them up.

Had the pleasure of shooting on this shoot at the start of the season. The topography is amazing it's like 2 completely different shoots rolled into on day. Something for all and a really friendly relaxed bunch.

Beautiful. Sometimes I prefer a hunt with just me and my dogs hunting Ruffed Grouse in the Tennessee mountains.

Great film as always ! So enjoy TGS channel 👍 Totally agree 80 bird days Are more than enough it’s about enjoying the day with like-minded people, and Respecting the game 👍 not just how big the bag is on a shoot….

Nice to see Ryan with a smile on his face👍👍looked a great day

Because they were using small bores I'll excuse them for using over and unders.

Another great video. Just proves you can have just as much fun with you mates without breaking the bank

What a fantastic shoot , fun with mates followed by a curry , it doesn't get much better. And Sash is just the best fieldsports film maker out there.

That was a very nice video I fully enjoyed it... small bore is all we use, 28ga and 410 rules!!! If you are ever over in the USA look me up!!!

I really enjoy your videos! Great production. I would appreciate more game shooting videos like this one!

Really makes me miss my UK days this, very lucky to have places like that, cracking day out, good laughs, guns, good food, whats not to like.... oh and ants classic doubles 😍propper gun that

Muy buenas cazerias amigos saludos

Super film guys! Well done

Great vid !!!! The .410 can become quite addictive.

Jonny yes another nice looking video, the only thing missing was the Beaters etc. it would have been good to show who and what goes into producing a good day!🤔🤗

Awesome!!!

Best days ever the future of game shooting..

That looked like fun!

Partridge Bhuna. British cuisine at its finest.

Those pheasants are sure good eating mate. Love the hunting videos, people have no idea what hunting is really about, putting good food on the table.

Ive never been on a game day, absolutely would love to! Fantastic video chaps!

Great to see your little Mate Dave again 👍 Awesome video as always mate 👍 Keep them coming

Dave is a top geez. Would love to get on this shoot next season. Big up.

Shooting small bore just adds to the fun factor in shooting. It's nice to change it up.

I'm with Ant - 20 is small enough. And actually, my preferred way to be odd is the 16.

I really like this, the closest thing to rough shooting I've seen you do. Too bad you don't do as much walked up game but I guess it's the difference with all these preserves. I want to try it some day but I'm too into the dog work.

Good watch.Enjoyable days for sure with the caveat small bores on shootable driven birds not for me.If you had done as much picking up as I have the reasoning would be apparent.The problem at this end of the scale is distance because failure to resist having a go at a better bird with a small bore never designed to shoot driven gamebirds is where it falls short too often.

...you guys actually find 410 ammo in the UK? Send some to the US, because it's a bear getting some right now!!

Days like that are the best, Who cares about bag size if you had fun

Definitely needs to be more small bore days. I bought a 28b for my partner to learn to shoot with and have had it out a couple of times on the game 24,5s are mustard cartridges. I think the non toxic crap will kill them off though.

Did Johnny call his gun a kaser garabi instead of Caesar guerini?

Regarding your comment at 2:20, the problem is that no shoots want to offer a small bag anymore - they've all prioritised 200+ shoots at high prices.

Brilliant video

Great video Josh, hunting birds is always great fun. What number shot do you use for these hunts? 4, 5, or 6?

What shotgun was that .410 that jammed?! Never seen that type of action...

Lovely

Looks like an amazing day. How can I get a place on a shoot like that? I'd love to get a place on a TGS day too.

Looks good fun but walking up that steep hill not for me😁

Great vid

Small bore all day long shoot a yildiz in 28 and 410 now I barely pick up my 12 O/U any more and on recent keepers day showed up the big boys with the 28

Looks fantastic , what sort of cost is to be expected for a day out like this ?

Looked dandy

What bore gun you're using ?

Can we see a 10 bore clay shoot????

You can’t beat a beer and a curry

Hello Dave long time no , nice shoot this is what shooting should be not shooting at pheasants that are sixty to one hundred yards up and out of shot gun range being shot at by so called sports men .Still your days are numbered you definitely won’t be killing one in ten it will be more like one in thirty if you are lucky giving more ammunition to the Packhams of this word if you kill one in thirty how meany are you wounding .? Keep up the good work Dave and all the lads on that day only thing that was missing for me was ……………. No sixteenth bore in the line ;-) .

Proper

This is what it’s all about.

Anybody told you that you are "Jeremy Clarkson" of shooting?

I've never seen u shoot a 15 yard bird

🇪🇨🇪🇨💯👍

Can Americans come and hunt in Europe?

Should've lent the poor guy with the two bad guns a Baikal. Just saying.

And how many birds were "pricked" and went off to die a painful and lonely death? You should be ashamed of yourselves!
