Join a couple of members of the COT as we help out on our local syndicate shoot on beaters day. This video will show you some "behind the scenes" of a small driven shoot. You can see how the beaters work as we push the pheasants towards the Guns, we also walk up a few hedges and I manage to bag a couple of birds. It was hard work for the cocker as he had to sit at a peg, pick up, beat and hunt the cover when I was a walking gun. I also "look after" a young Gun who is shooting driven game for the first time I and get to share in his enjoyment as he shoots his first pheasant which we later cooked in a nice hot stew......As you will hear it was very windy and freezing cold but I was really pleased with how the camera managed to deal with the contrasty conditions.
I used the Go Pro Hero 3 set to 1080p @ 60 frames per second which enabled me to do the smooth slow motion section of the bird being shot......Please subscribe to see more of our videos.
