Jack is using one of a pair of William Powell I tried to buy at auction recently. Archie inspired and instructed a lot of my generation. Pigeon shooting still my favourite by far and I’m not alone.

The days when tv actually had programmes worth watching and life wasn't quite as fast there was cod in the sea harder winters and some mighty flocks of pigeon would come over from a very cold continent here in east Anglia. Nice watch thanks for posting

After Archie’s death his wife Prue invited my mother, my young son and myself to the family home, Tower Hill, Dummer for lunch. We were regaled by many a tale about Archie’ exploits. We saw his old hat and guns. He was my shooting hero as a young man. I am sadly led to believe that Prue recently passed. She was a lovely lady who leaves behind there daughter Lucy who is a children’s author. I’d love to meet her and get some more tales of a childhood with this man who was not only a shooting legend but a hero of WW2. Archie, Prue R.I.P and thank you for the memories. ❤️

What a find, good on you for uploading. Advice from a master. Can you imagine ITV running a programme dedicated to pigeon shooting in this era? Such a shame so much has changed...

There would be a public uproar if any country sporting programmes were aired nowadays.. but they would probably get away with it if the shooters were " A sexual " none gender LGBT immigrants or them soy boy hipster freaks who sit in Starbucks talking about Ed Sheeran and Kim Kardashian .. But a real man has no chance.
