Just try calling into a few farms when you see Pigeons hitting the fields or if you see a field full of rabbits etc! you will get one of two answers but it costs very little to get out and ask. I have tried for 10 years now and found 3 of which I have now lost 1 to other Idiots poaching and getting the shooting knocked the second I was really looking forward to and on the first day i set off with the camo nets the deeks etc and when I got there ALL shooting had been knocked on the head by the Land owner who is now opening a game shoot The Last is on a small bit of land belonging to someone I sold a gun to (silliest of things) but i got talking and he told me i was welcome to shoot rabbits etc with the air rifle. It's better than nothing but I haven't seen him in ages! After 10 years I am still looking and won't give in as somewhere out there is a place to shoot. Try finding a game shoot near you and offer them some beating or help repairing fences and feeding etc in return for vermin shooting!
