bluesj Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Just a bit of an insight for anyone that doesn’t know what they are like, yesterday 3 hunt supporters where attacked by about 25 masked “animal lovers” well out trail hunting the sabs also smashed the car window of an old couple and stole a phone from them that was being used to video the attack . This same group of sabs have got a petition up to trying to stop the hunt meet on boxing day, The hut has a counter petition here http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/support-the-boxing-day-meet-in-lewes-high-street if anyone would like to sign it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul223 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Your Hunt should be in close talks with the CA, they can provide excellent advise on dealing with sabs Edited November 17, 2015 by Paul223 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShootingEgg Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Yet in the news yesterday was an article about how a sab was injuded by a huntsperson... The sabs are just thugs.. Breaking the law and nkrmally geting away with it, as if they took the phone woth video evidence on it then they are completely anonymous.

Davyo Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 The hunts do themselves more damage than good,I was told by one huntsman to stop shooting foxes so they where left for them.Talk about putting nails in your own ⚰ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Some farms i shoot fox's on ask me not to go when the hunt is around in case it upsets them the fact I'm shooting them all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Also heard several reports of them running across land theyve not got permission on, knocking fences down and leaving gates open. Obviously not all like that, but as said above some don't help themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

numpty Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 I will put in a good word for my local hunt, the Pytchley, who always act in a courteous,polite and thoughtful manner and have a tremendous following by the local community. Speak to the Hunt about any issues or concerns you have as in my experience they want to help overcome any friction and be a welcome addition to the countryside. We have had contact with the yobs that wish to disturb proceedings who always seem to want to provoke attack as the Hunt are such an easy target...imagine the trouble we as pigeon shooters would have if we had to publish the dates, times and places we will be for the next few months!

I shoot Dons farm on the corner and they used to have false earths in his wood that the hunt built... The hunt were told not to go on certain fields that had just been sown he even put new chains and padlocks on the gates.. What did they do cut the chains and went across the fields with quad bikes what a bloody mess they made there was hell to pay.. Stuart Don's son kicked them of they are not allowed on his land at all now. Then he rang me to take a gun and we went down to the woods with his forklift arms on his tractor and ripped and dug up all the tunnels the hunt had built over the years i was there in case any had foxes in and i could have shot them with the shottie as they bolted there were none at home...

Told them that me and my buddies are the preferred and only pest controllers allowed on the land.

kennett Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Another good word for the hunt that covers my shoot. Not naming names incase they see my fox shooting posts! but they were asked to stay away from my pen woods and do, to be honest do very little damage and the pheasants hardly notice. It would be a sad day if they are forced to stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now i can understand the farmer being well ****** off, and rightly so. But how does ripping an earh out help matters? Instead of having an easily accessable earth for the terrier u have now no idea where there cubbing, even if u dinae use terriers u still know where to sit out ans wait for vixen/cubs . Decent hounds cause very litle disturbance to pheasants, seen small gun packs draw pen woods or drives and hardly a bird flushes, quite strange really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digger Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Most hunts will compensate for any damage caused. Clearly not all. The division and mud slinging won't help. Balaclava wearing thugs need no compensation. what they do need they sometimes get then bleat like stuck pigs. scum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he dug all the pipes out and broke them, he doesn't get bother by foxes so he is quite happy for me to take any out that causes a problem don't get many call for my services in this department, mainly calls about corvids shoot load on his land...

spinach Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 Well glad to see we've a constant voice against the antis! The hunts round here do end up on wrong land occasionally and seem to put right. They've never done it over our land but then were not arable. Anyway OT sabs. They have a far more devious hunt and when they taste their victory where will they go next? Farming? Butchers? Restaurants selling meat or businesses that work with any that do. Let's not fight and see the enemy for who they are. John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 I think the problem with the Hunt is as in my post, and its a (minority) that blatantly out to chase/catch foxes regardless of the ban and this will can only be more damaging for those that want the sport to return.
