Will Beasley Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Ive seen groups of 20 to 30 around the beach trees the last week!!! Not much action on the fields :blink: All starting on Acorns and Beechmast here too. Theyre still feeding on grain as well which is good but I see trouble ahead :good: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Same experince in Herts y'ay. First shoot on my permission. Quite a few pigeons around but not with obvious flight lines. A few flocks of 15-20 birds flying around but not inerested in deeks at all. Lots of beech trees and beech mast around the fields so that's probably why. Got five woodies and a magpie in 2.5 hours. Good start though. Then back to see the england front row crush the convicts - great props game. Didn't see any muntjac around but good wooded areas for them. How easy is it to get a FAC if you have a shotgun cert and permission - as I fancy a go at them and the farmer has told me I can shot any pests and also lamp on his land if a have a FAC.

codling99 Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 dont need a sgc to get a fac,might help,but doubt it.all you need is land good enough to shoot over with fac of your choice,the usual signatures ,and farmers signature and good reason to want and use one,and a good record with police. p.s. heard a rumour,that sometime soon,your gonna need a dsc1 to shoot deer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invector Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 They're all pests of some sort or another, but muntjac are deer, and are subject to the usual rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Country Boy Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 even pest species like muntjac? How would you go about decoying muntjac then - would they fit on a rotary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
