PeterHenry Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Hi All, I'm trying to get pepole in the fieldsports instagram community to mix in hashtags like #Ethical / #EthicalFood / #Food / #TypeOfFood / etc, to show more people well presented feildsports content and strengthen the link with food in the general publics minds. So for example when someone looks at a picture of venison lasagne or wood pigeon ravioli they have found though #EthicalFood or #ItalianFood - if they click through they are directed to an instagram profile with a positive narrative. The idea being that if enough pepole did this, it would have a subtle beneficial effect on the instagram algorithms and show more pepole the good things about our sport. Would this be something pepole would consider taking part in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spr1985 Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 I think it’s a great idea, but. I think we both know that those # tags combined with a field sports account is going to attract a certain type of person…..I’m not convinced you will find many people willing to welcome the abuse with open arms. would you share your insta name so that I could have a look?

I did think of that - but i've been doing it for ages, and can count on one hand the amount of negative comments I've had. I reckon that if you leave the vegan / animal rights true believes alone, and concentrate on the middle ground (providing enough pepole did it) it could have a beneficial effect.

jall25 Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Great idea I am not really up on it but i have put lots of posts on various sites about the benefits of shooting and most people are positive or want more info. I post on sites like RSPB when people ask why birds are declining and also the wildlife trusts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I post on sites like RSPB when people ask why birds are declining and also the wildlife trusts 👍 I think it just about getting out there and showing the large reasonable section of society the positives. Instagram should be great for this, because pepole scroll though and the algorithms throw up results based in part what you have looked at previously and related content. It's a small jump from #RoastVenison to #DeerStalking - just as its a small jump from #Food / #Ethical.
