The King's Birthday
      #391911 - 09/06/25 09:29 PM

Happy King's Birthday Weekend.

No it's not the actual day but it's the Australian day for the holiday.

The historical Stockwell Hunt Club King's Birthday Shoot. A shoot that occurred every year from the 1800s to the 1960s, except for WW2.

A tradition I would like to recreate on this weekend or near to it. With a feast dinner, shoot and hunt.

Great article. It is sad we don't have much of that tradition around any more.

Hunting in Europe is very much more of a social affairs

Maybe as we get older we seek that more.
