Shooting the superb Leighton Long Mountain in Wales (Shooters Vlogg 35)

We kick off our season by spending the day as guests of Charles and Victoria on their truly superb estate in Welshpool, Wales.
Beautiful location, superb hospitality and one of the most stunning shoot lodges anywhere!

[@twinpotracer]

I especially appreciate the cartridge holder/belt being used.

Good to see you enjoying the day , some cracking birds there , like the suit but not the high viz shoulder pad. Looking forward to your next outing,take care and stay safe . I’m now shooting of an idle back chair on all drives. I use Komodo sunglasses on sunny days, absolutely brilliant,

[@theseatedgun2377]

Hi David, hope you're well! its not as bright as it looks off film!

[@pauljarvis8919]

Wales with no rain that’s a first, great shooting JP 👍

[@theseatedgun2377]

[@darellkettley6622]

[@theseatedgun2377]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

[@markhardisty4859]

Great video, I was lucky enough to shoot hear two seasons ago Great day out very high birds thanks to the keeper lee allison

[@theseatedgun2377]

Totally agree Mark, Lee is super and the location just amazing! A truly super shoot!

[@micksmith482]

Lovely video nice to see you back out.on the first drive you was on about changing choke combination what did you end up with please

[@theseatedgun2377]

Hi Mick, thanks for watching, I changed up from 1/2 and 1/4 to 3/4 and 1/2

[@ShotawayFilms]

Good watch.Think chokes not really the problem and you might consider same choking in both for this type of driven shooting.

[@theseatedgun2377]

The first birds were out of range on the chokes I had in, once changed up then they were been reached. No point in having the same chokes in on a shoot where the birds start high and then drop, as the second barrel is generally too tight for the angle. Thanks for watching!

[@ShotawayFilms]

@@theseatedgun2377 I will have to beg to differ on that one.

[@johnince3611]

Excellent video JP, well worth the wait, are you still using the Zenith? Keep them coming, looking forward to the next installment, 👍

[@theseatedgun2377]

Hi John, yes still using Zenith - cant fault them to be honest!

[@stuartcrane9409]

Why do you shoot top barrel first? It causes more barrel flip which must be even more of a problem shooting from a chair! Especially as your shoulder mount is often compromised. It’s good to see you enjoying yourself again. My compliments to your wife for attempting to catch the moment

[@theseatedgun2377]

Hi Stuart, thanks for watching. I've always shot top barrel first and to be honest with modern O/U's there is little barrel flip as the barrels are designed not to flex downward due to the alignment and structure of the barrels reinforcing each other. Ill pass on the compliments and thanks for your comments!

[@billtyler8881]

Great looking shoot. What guns are you using and what cartridge. Great film keep em coming

[@theseatedgun2377]

Hi Bill, thanks for your comments / questions. I was using a Beretta 687 EELL classic, one of a pair. I like to share the drives between the guns to maintain the same wear and patina's on the wood. Cartridge wise I use Eley Zenith and on this particular day they were 34/4. Thanks for watching!

[@CallumonDrums24]

You guys filmed that on my 21st birthday

[@theseatedgun2377]

Happy belated birthday Callum! Thanks for watching

[@raybede]

You certainly seem to have sorted out a number of shoots that suit someone with a disability. I have a breathing problem and find that people are so helpful, providing a buggy to get me to my peg or, in extremis, my fellow guns have even swapped their peg with me. The shooting fraternity in general, are wonderful people.

[@theseatedgun2377]

Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@davegardner9732]

lee is a great keeper i used to beat for him many years ago at long mountain before i started to help a small syndicate shoot closer to home

[@theseatedgun2377]

Absolutely fantastic chap!

[@garybissell8449]

I notice you shoot top barrel first ? What is your reason for that. Or is it just me who shoots bottom first !

[@theseatedgun2377]

Hi Gary, more habit and preference for me over the exact science. Thanks for watching

[@user-yl3rs4di3e]

Добрый день..хорошая охота...Скажите пожалуйста у вас ружьё с длиной стволами 810 см???

[@twinpotracer]

Blame the chokes 🤣
