Catamong Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 (edited) It seems that too many people want to rely on that Inter Web Net thingy to bring them shooting rights - unfortunately life's not like that - I got all the acreage I could ever cope with before PC's were invented, by face to face contact with the farming community, at a time when I could see that their fields were being hammered by the Grey hordes...it worked every time for me..!! Old Boy shooter, get on your bike, scooter, car or whatever, get you binoculars out and be prepared to press the flesh..!! Double H Yes, even an ugly ****** like me, can still get shooting rights..!!

old rooster Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Been out doing just that today, had a long chat with a farmer who has a couple of isolated fields of rape that have been slow to get away. Neighbours on both sides have pheasant shoots so he's going to mention it to the keepers first out of courtesy and let me know. Given me the shooting on his beans next spring as its after the phessie season so no problem to the other shoots. You've got to get out there and do the chatting, nothing to beat it IMHO if you want a lasting relationship with your farmers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turk101 Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Hi guys just my opinion, if people on the site think it's so bad to ask for shooting on this site then then topic headline should be changed.(LAND REQUIRED) what are newbies supposed to think ? Me personally i actually agree with most of you, I do'nt think anyone ever gets any shooting through these links, sporting shooter,sporting gun etc: I think they are all fruitless, but lets not hammer people for trying something that is labelled as LAND REQUIRED or no one would post on here! I'm not having ago at anyone, just my opinion.(hope i do'nt get a heated response) turk101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invector Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Pity, just as I was getting ready to post a REALLY heated response!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Its accepted that the title of this section is not ideal. However, the answer is in the small print; "Post here for advice and help on gaining some extra shooting ground". But, who reads the small print ?

lanber1088 Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Only way to get shooting is to face the farmer when the pigeons are doing whot they do best "eating"so get out there and find the flocks and start knocking ! Happy shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
