You were there at Warrington last year , it was quite hot . I seriously doubt two weeks later will make a difference . I think the slight move was to appease the dove shooters .

The sight move was due to Warrington's mismanagement of the shoot. Sad because it was a good venue.

The Oct. date is horrible if you hunt birds or deer. If you want the shoot to succeed keep the same date from year to year.

Whenever it is held, Warrington would not be the preferred SITE. What a terrible experience.

I’d have been more pleased if the guy that runs the boxbird ring at Warrington had been there and pigeons available for practice .

Trying to find the place without a GPS unit in the car reminded me of how the Germans reversed all the road signs inland from the beach before and during the invasion of Normandy.
