russ91 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 well i went around a nothere 3 farms this morning trying to get some more permishon but had no luck sadley they ever had some one shooting already or dint want to have any thing to do with shooting. i hate it when some farmers try look down on you just for asking if you could shoot vermin on there land. i dont think the farmers around here realise that i am trying to do them a faver by nocking the numbers down of the vermin population on there land. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FANNYRAT Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) Just keep on trying mate. The law of averages say you will hit lucky sometime. I am in the same situation myself. Farmers are a breed of their own and it helps if you are friends with them. Find out where they drink!!! I agree, you could be doing them a hugh favour clattering vermin. Some how, its hard to get through. Another option.... From my experience is to get among the farmers daughters. The invites may come along in more ways than one. Haha..

Chess Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Many years ago had a friend who went to Russia and who was a mole catcher. Had to fill in some paperwork saying who he was and what his occupation was!!!!!!.......they did let him in and it gave us a gigle later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 You might find permissions easier to get once you have your SGC, most Farmers take some convincing that an air rifle is going to keep a flock of pigeons off a field of rape. If you already have a permission, have a word with the Farmer/Landowner and see if they know anyone else you can "help out". Thats the way most of us expand our permissions.
