Sounds encouraging.
There will be plenty of dog work to witness - the terriers and spaniels in teh line when walking, the spaniels and labradors picking up behin=d the gun line and then 'hoovering' the ground and going for runners afterwards.
Birds are released in July and are totally free. the 'keeper makes sure wthere is feed in teh woods and teh vermin are controlled. We will not shoot until November. By then birds are very mature and pretty wiley. By late December they are VERY educated. Drives are organised to produce very challenging shooting - you ask how many birds you will shoot - ask how many shots you will fire and you could be surprised. the wildfowl are all totally wild and not raised. We feed the lake and the birds come in if they like the look of it. We shoot this only occasionally but it produces exciting and unpredicatable shooting.
As for wearing a baseball cap and Anthrax T-shirt - sure - Just remember to bring a stick and a pair of leggings and to call all the guns 'Sir' before they send you off to beat out the thickest hedge!
The encouraging response confirms what I suspected and I'll put some flesh on the bones of this thing.
