kippylawkid Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Unfortunately, farmers can tend to view strangers very suspiciously, particularly at farms near urban areas if they have have been robbed or had damage done to their farm in the past. You cannot really blame them for being on the cagey side. Have you no shooting mates you can tag along with to get a foot in the door? Keep trying, you'll probably find that if you do things the right way, when you get your first permission, others will follow. Good luck.
