If a single gun is kept well forward, choosing his own place and taking turnabout with the others, the bag—if it is wished to kill down the ground game—will be considerably increased. One object when shooting this wood is to get the ground beaten quickly; if there are twenty squares to be beaten, and five minutes are wasted at each, it means a loss of ...
