Bangs and banter with Dan Thor on beaters' day

It’s beaters’ day on a pheasant shoot in Hertfordshire, and there are still plenty of birds to reward everyone who worked so hard on the shoot all season. Dan Thor joins his friends there, including a youngster who gets a great partridge. Dan is shooting a Browning 525 Exquisite, which comes with multi chokes. He is shooting Lyalvale Express Super Game 32g 5-shot cartridges.

Why shoot game birds?
Game is wild, natural and free range, and it is one of the healthiest meats available today. It is low in cholesterol and high in protein. Results from research commissioned by the Game-to-Eat campaign (Leatherhead Food International Research 2006) suggest that there are real health benefits to eating game. Both pheasant and partridge contain high levels of iron, protein, vitamin B(6) and selenium, which helps to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
In addition to the nutritional benefits of game, game shooting is worth £2 billion annually to the UK rural economy and supports 74,000 jobs. There are 480,000 (UK government figures) active game shooters in the UK who enjoy bird shooting under the principles of the Code of Good Shooting Practice.
More than 2 million hectares are actively managed for shooting in the UK creating proven (PACEC, 2014) conservation benefits and preserving important habitats for a diverse range of flora and fauna, in particular farmland birds. UK shooting providers spend £5.4 million on cover crop seeds every year and maintain over 25,000ha of wild-bird cover.

We already had our beaters day. Here in Ireland you needs special permission to shoot late into the season even mid February.

[@coreybiggs8626]

I don't understand, "Too low." Why cant you shoot low?

[@stephenhothersall3655]

Because you could shoot someone!

[@tst698]

If they are too low it’s unsporting, too easy, potentially unsafe because beaters, dogs and other guns could end up getting shot also if they are too close and you shoot them even if it’s a safe shot you could completely ruin the meat from close range
