  1. Just recieved the thornhill trousers. Ultra quick delivery, great price, great trousers. Many Thanks Again!!!
  2. If you are trying to make a living from it you do still need to charge though. If the population was so big as to be a problem I'm sure it would be free.
  3. Okay, I'm going to speak to my friend and following everyones help and advice suggest an new price plan along the lines of: £60 for the outing/£110 for the day (2 outings) With the chance to shoot 1-2 cull muntjac or fallow. This is his fee for his time, etc. Additional beasts will be at an extra cost Trophy heads as always will be extra. The option to purchase any carcuss at dealers rate. Think this sounds better and along the lines of what people feel is fair.
  4. Thanks for all the comments so far. Its great to see the thoughts of the people that go shooting rather than just taking the prices of web sites. My friend is looking at the price plan, I'm sure being a shooting man he will come up with prices that are much better and more suited to demand. Please keep the comments and your thoughts coming.
  5. Trophy are extra. The £100 is for the outing, but is just a guide price and I'm sure will change. There would be an estate rifle available.
  6. Hi Sam, Thanks for the comments. The prices are only a guide at the moment. We got to these prices by looking at over a dozen stalking websites and what they charge. The average fee is about £120+ on these sites. I need people to help with their views on prices so we can get an idea of average fee's, etc. The prices will change to suit. The muntjac have not been shoot for a few years on this estate so I guess there will be a few big bucks. I will ask for you.
  7. For sale I have a brand new packet of Polo's. I'm afraid I've just not found the time to use them so they've got to go to make space. They come complete with original holes and wrapping. As I said, unsed so in MINT condition £10 posted
  8. This might be a bit of a silly question. I'm going away for a week soon (in th UK) and would like to take my shotgun with me to do some clay shooting. What are the legal bits regarding where it would be kept as you cant really take the gun cabinet? Any help would be great
  9. At the moment this is just to see how much interest there would be if this was to go ahead. Prices at the moment are a guide. Deer Stalking on a lovely Estate near Basingstoke, Hampshire. This will be for Muntjac and Fallow. The costs would be: £100 for the outing. £50 for the shooting of a Muntjac (carcuss will be included), £80 for a Fallow (the carcuss remains property of the estate but you will have the chance to purchase it at dealers rate). Trophy head costs are extra and can be discussed prior to any bookings. Feel free to ask any questions. Any comments are also welcome.
  10. Hi Trevor, Put Hungerford, Berkshire in a route planner to give you distance. Meeting half way would be a bit difficult as I work mon-fri then have my son sat-sun as my wife then works.
  11. Original bore, but well looked after. Slight damage due to new baby so test drive not available, pictures wont help my cause so none available. All other questions welcome
  12. I guess I could give her away to a good home. Any takers: She's a 1978 model. Thousands of pounds spent on her over the years. Good condition for age. Good working order. Could do with a bit of polish. Can be difficult to start in the mornings. Usual wear and tear of something this age.
  13. Hi Trevor, It's short for face to face.
  14. Brought this gun just before christmas but as yet have not used it due to the pheasant season. Since buying it I have learnt that when your wife says "do what you want" means buy it and you will never hear the end of it. As I believe it is illegal to sell your wife in the U.K I'm afraid the gun must go to fund my sons new buggy. It has had the stock stripped, cleaned and polished. The gun was also stripped, sonic bathed, and oiled. The breda is similar to the beretta semi in look and make. There is some bits on the internet of a conection between the two. The gun comes complete with a lined slip and a copy of the orginal instructions (printed from the internet). It has the full choke screwed in the end. 12g. Cant really say much more about the gun as I've only had it a month and not fired it. £150 o.n.o F.T.F. If you require any more pictures please ask and I'll e-mail them Wiltshire/Berkshire/Hampshire borders
  15. Thanks everyone for your help, great info from unclemicky. I didn't bother with the wings, they came straight of. Plucking took forever and burning off the last of the down feathers really did smell. Next time it will either go to the game dealer to be done or I'll just crown the damm thing! You need strong fingers to do a goose...
  16. Hi All, Was beating on a small shoot today and have walked away with a goose. 8 guns, 91 pheasants, 29 duck and 9 geese!!! My friend shot two of the geese so has given me one. The only thing is I've never done a goose before. Has anyone got any tips or links to a page that may help. Thanks for looking, Phil
  17. Thanks for all your replies so far. Great stuff. I will advise my friend to contact the local RFD and see if he can help.
  18. A friend of mine has offered me a shotgun his grandad had. The gun is from the 1980's. From what I gather his grandad never had a license though so I have no way of knowing if the gun is registered or not. Whats the best course of action here?
  19. Hi All, What a great site, pity I've only recently found it. I currently go pigeon shooting with a friend but it is a long way from where I live. My wife and I have just had our first child so I am now finding travelling so far a bit difficult. I am wanting to gain permission from land owners closer to home. From other people's experience what is the best way of getting this. Should I e-mail first, or phone or just turn up on their doorstep? Any help will be great. Thanks, Phil
