Why dont you ask the question on a shooting site rather than on an eqestrian/hound site.............Carreg

The vast majority of the land within the British Isles is not shot over yet it boast a vast diversity of natural wildlife that has found its balance in nature.

Wrong. Over two thirds of the UK's land is shot over or managed for shooting.

I thought that all hunters were as one and had a wealth of knowledge on all things pertaining to countryside pursuits. I apologise for assuming that you had the necessary knowledge, but there again we are all prone to assumptions aren’t we, just like some posts that I have read on this site assuming that all people who oppose hunting are regarded as tree hugging do gooders who have absolutely no knowledge of country matters.

I think you're full of siht... I believe you knew most people on here know very little about the day to day matters regarding game shooting, and I for one dont regard antis as soap dodging, tree hugging do gooders...........Carreg

When you say that most people on this site know very little on the subject I therefore assume (there’s that word again) that there are some with a degree of knowledge and it’s these ‘knowledgeable’ people that I address.

To be fair, most of the people on this part of the site are more interested in hunting as opposed to shooting.

Forgive me for my lazyness but...what were the questions Celt?

 

[CARREG]

So, I'll ask again, why dont you ask on a forum dedicated to this type of activity, if I wanted to learn something about windsurfing I wouldnt ask on a go-kart forum in the hope that someone on there may know something about windsurfing.............Carreg

That's a good point carreg. I've felt obliged to try and answer his questions as I have few days shooting next door each season. But I have to adnit I don't know that much about it.

Celt's posts have however prompted me to question my neighbour about his activities and I have to say his answered bore very little relation to the picture that Celt paints.

Nothing that he has said thus far has convinced me that i shouldn't carry on illegally hunting or legally shooting pheasants.
