It is in the lap of the gods. I have just sent off my first payment deposit to cover twelve days from October onwards so hope it will all be over bar the shouting by then.

Yes mate I’ve paid my club insurance but there’s been no membership meeting as off yet due to this virus I hope by September 1st it’s under control 👍👍👍

Get a grip !

If we're still locked down in September, ducks will be the last thing any of us will be worried about ..

I think we'll all be making the very most of the sport next season :good:

I am getting a grip that’s why I’m asking views on duck season because if this gets as bad as people are predicting then wel have nothing to look forward too I agree as well people are worried about jobs myself included But hunting a big part of are lives Great for your mental health etc And if the game season cancelled then there will be more jobs lost Sorry if offended anyone My post wasn’t meant too 👍

Have faith.  Italy been hit about as hard as anybody and they are showing signs of the back end of it after 9 weeks or so.  It may be still floating about as all flu germs do but hopefully will have died out by then.  Fingers crossed.

I will honour the commitments I have made for this coming year, and pay deposits when asked..........I would however not expect them to ask for the balance if there was to be no shooting!

I have/will rejoin my fowling clubs though......this crisis will not last forever, and I want them to still be there when it’s all over!

Absolutely ...lots of scaremongery going on.  A lot of you are not old enough to remember stoppages due to foot and mouth.  Way back when, our car rallying was stopped for a six month period but still continued afterwards, and the same will be with shooting.  This is a nasty one for sure but the world will come through it as it has in all other such occurences.

Thanks mate as I said my 1st post was not meant to insult anyone on forum I understand tensions are high at the moment all over the uk And Ireland Re job losses and unfortunately people dying over this virus I’m just holding out a bit of hope that every hunter on this forum has something to hold out for September 1st And hopefully this virus 🦠 gets under control we All can have a great season Good luck 👍👍👍👍👍

They won't be getting better in the next few weeks, that's for certain. 

That we all know but we can only make what we can of the situation. I find hope in the upcoming season. My home life is **** and I cant view houses to move out due to this sodding virus but I still have a job and my health so things cant be that bad.

Wait im running low on loo roll!!!!

some people making comments about not paying subs to their clubs just in case..... season is 5 months away yet, but the leases etc will still need to be paid, bills to pay etc.

most clubs are likely to be able to come to some sort of arrangement to help members.

Hopefully we will all be out there and have a far better season than the last one which was my worst ever

if there is no shooting for season for 2020/21 I will probably pack up all together, my ticket is due in November but am not sure if I can be bothered to renew and spend subs for clubs etc. where I cant shoot. 

Part of it may be getting older and not wanting to shoot live quarry as much nowadays. 

If I do pack up there will be a small mountain of ITM, Hevishot and bismuth for sale. Watch this space.
