Heck I shot pigeons

Just not at Wimbledon. For 10 yrs four of us earned more than just a little money shooting pigeons in towns and around grain elevators. I shot as many as 100,000 shells a year during those yrs. Best day we ever did was about 4000 pigeons in one town. They even had a grain elevator at the edge of town. I'm sure they used shotguns at wimbledon but not during a match. Pigeons and seagulls are really messy birds that foul many places people spend time around. I have seen seagulls actually snatch food away from unsuspecting people right while they were eating.
