wabbitbosher Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Don’t want to brag about BASC BUT How many of the "Others" Protect shooting for the future Support Young shooters bringing fresh blood into the sport Fight for Hundreds of shooting rights in parliament on a daily basis Tail docking springs to mind Offer advice to members on legal matters and safety matters over the phone Give you a bimonthly mag full of things to do and places to go I could write pages and pages and pages All for just over a Quid a week WB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 There are many organisations to join that carry a member benefit of insurance cover for the country sports person. The costs vary, as does the cover. If you go to the organisations website, you will find all the information you will need. For examples try; BASC Countryside Alliance National Gamekeepers Organisation Scottish Association for Country Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-peter Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I use scotttish association for country sports far cheaper than basc no frills just good honest insurance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David BASC Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Also. look beyond the insurance- what else do you get? What is important to you? Keeping shooting safe, keeping a healthy quarry population, good political representation, good media representation - much more than just cheap insurance.
