       I was offered a place on a syndicate for ducks for 4-5 months
       shooting.. its not something i know much about so suppose im
       wondering are syndicates worth it? or is there anything in
       particular i should be asking about it?

       you say 4 or 5 months shooting well thats the shooting season
       your allow to shoot ducks
       couple of questions you will need answers to
       
       1,location of duck shoot or is it on a lough ( is there any
       other clubs near bye and whats the friendship like between them
       and land owners some clubs or syndicates take on extra guns to
       cover costs of a new pen or land deal so be careful your not
       being used )
       2, rearing of birds or buying in both ways there is a lot of
       work involved or just flighting in wild birds coming to a pond
       and feeding ( how many work or feed  days will you be excepted
       to carry out and how close to were you live its ok over the
       summer nights going up and feeding but later in the year after
       clocks change it can be a handful
       3,  cost of the years shooting and returns over the last lot of
       years ,it could even be a small pond with a handful of lads just
       feeding and shooting handy shooting but there is downfalls to
       this as well ,you dont want to be going shooting on a Saturday
       hoping to bag a bird or two to find other lads shot Friday night
       on you
       these are only some quick questions i would be asking just to
       cover yourself ,best of luck with it hope it works out and let
       us know through out the year if you join

       cheers duck caller..
       . found out its at lough neagh couldnt be given a definite fee
       just yet but was estimated £120-160 and they go up and feed wild
       birds... with living down the Ards Peninsula, the distance is
       the killer for me. although does anyone know of any clubs etc
       around Strangford lough?

       paying more than the others to cover there shooting just be
       carful

       dont get me wrong there is some place on lough neagh you would
       pay 3 times that amount to get shooting there but thats mostly
       kept for the locals
