alexm Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Yikes, bit close to our shoot this! Thankfully we are outside the control zone, but does anyone know if it applies to movement of game birds too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webber Posted June 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 I would assume so, but if in doubt contact BASC. I find email the best. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browning Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Yikes, bit close to our shoot this! Thankfully we are outside the control zone, but does anyone know if it applies to movement of game birds too? Yes. Total ban of movement of game birds from within both zones, total ban on releasing of game birds within both zones. The shoot that I run is 4 miles outside the surveilance zone, but our game farm is only 1 mile outside the surveilance zone, with 2000 pheasant poults due next month and 800 partridge shortly after, it's all too damned close for my liking. My pal runs the game farm and he's rather worried at the moment..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
