I was invited to a woodcock shoot (rough shooting) today. Beech forest, lots of mud, very hilly.

Impressed the owner of the shoot, driving a lifted Defender on mud tyres, on the places and hills my trusted T2 got to - on Toyo AT tyres

Always nice when things go well, well done, it is not always the vehicle, the driver plays a big part, Rick

I took it easy, made sure not to slip the wheels, and engaged low range before it was needed
