al4x Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I have to say after taking someone out and teaching them as much as possible and having them let off a round while unloading it, it would be a lot more than £100 if I took anyone I didn't know well out. In this case fortunately it was an HMR and I did have a 1500yard clear sight with a hill but it was an eye opener of novices and rifles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J@mes Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Do you honestly expect people to pay you £100 to come and shoot rabbits haha that's just made my day Are you retarded? If that made your day, then **** your life. But, yeh, I have no permission to shoot rabbits on so rather than spending £50 in the pub on a friday night I might choose to spend it having a night popping rabbits with a mate. £50 is less than two rounds of sporting. I'd probably hit more while out lamping with no lamp either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.philmypower. Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Each to their own i say. im lucky, i have plenty of land and plenty of quarry but if i never i think i would pay £50 as j@mes said its only a night in the pub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elby Posted June 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Also known as ladyboys Yes of course they are, catfish & ladyboys are the same thing in Thailand.

russ91 Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 There is a big difference between paying to shoot rabbits than there is deer, I may be lucky that I hav plenty of land that I can shoot 100+ rabbits on but even if I didn't I would not pay to shoot vermin, each to there own I guess. N to the guys that say they would rather spend there £50 on this why not put that in the tank and go knocking on doors of farmers and golf courses.

russ91 Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 You pay to shoot deer because they hav a price on there head due to high demand were as rabbits do not. I would quite gladly take any one local to me for a nights lamping rabbit and fox for free. And if you want to shoot deer regular you join a decent syndi and you keep what you shoot no matter what the size is whether its a spiker or a bronze medel 6 pointer.

super sharp shooter Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 So 2 people works out at £50 each and I expect to do about £40 on diesel. Obviously it aint a night out for poor people like yourself are you poor jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you want to shoot deer regular you join a decent syndi and you keep what you shoot no matter what the size is whether its a spiker or a bronze medel 6 pointer. you havnt said what the difference is only that you get charged for a "head" thats fair enough for trophy hunters what about cull beast,wahts the difference with paying for cull deer and paying for rabbit /fox shooting there is a high demand for rabbit shooting,from people who aint got any just like deer stalking or any shooting come to that if you join a syndicate your "still" paying to shoot deer, a lot of people who sell stalking get there land for free does that mean they cant charge ?? yes rabbit and fox permissions are given away free,but is it really free,take your time and fuel and see how much that adds up and no disrespect mate but lookings at the figures you have shots in 6 months you aint got a lot to go at rabbit and fox wise, from 1/1/11 13 rats 67magpies 91 crows 12 fox 38 pigeon 309 rabbits Edited June 27, 2011 by Ackley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know many people that belong to syndicates and get to keep nothing unless they pay for it. Also could you tell me what a "bronze medel 6 pointer" is, I've shot most species of deer and never heard of one of these.

Harwoodandy Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Here we go again ZZZZZZZZZZZZ Yawwwwwwn Member offers shooting to other members (for a price) Trolls come streaming out and basicaly slag the guy off for offering shooting to other members Net result - another opportunity is lost When will you hard of thinking D!ckheads learn to wind your necks in and keep your ill informed opinions to yourselves? Do you send snotty emails to everyone that advertises on guns on pegs/shooting times? And yes before you spout it out, it is a public forum and you are entitled to your opinion - there are plenty of sections on this site for you to indulge yourselves, just keep it away from the available section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Unless you are lucky enough to know Elby I cannot understand how you can slag him off.He is offering a service at a price-if you dont like it or want it then move on .I,ve met the guy and I,m willing to bet that its a chuffing bargain-this fella doesnt do things by half.

ste 2712 Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 The way i look at it is most of the members slagging the op off for charging to shoot have there own land so off course you wouldn't pay to shoot when you can do it for free!! Thing is there are members on here with no land to shoot on so for them its a bargain! not only that it's an opportunity regardless of cost to to do what we ( members who have permission) take for granted! i know i'm lucky to have several permissions but if i didn't i would definitely take an offer like this. i say good on you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
