Destry.
I decoy the goldies when there are big tides, this pushes them of the mud flats and onto the fields next to the marshes. they decoy well, its a technique that the old victorian gunners used. They make fantastic sport and are definately one of the best eating birds taken on the foreshore. It makes it even more memorable when shooting them with my old higham 16g muzzleloader, though the VH20 sorts them out with just as much satifaction.
As for partridge, i prefer to shoot partridge than pheasant i personally think partridge are a lot more testing to shoot than pheasant, though not as testing as grouse, but grouse shooting is very expensive. as a result its not often i get the oportunity to shoot grouse.
