Hi could anyone please tell me if there are any regulations regarding shooting near horses/riding school? I have a lesson once a week on my own horse at a local riding school, I join in a group lesson, since the start of the shooting season the lesson has been blighted by shooting in the next field to the indoor school, luckily today as I have a bad back I just went to watch the lesson. I am glad that I did not take my horse, the shot was falling onto the school roof like hail, the two riding school ponies were terrified. I come from a farming/shooting family so am not anti but surely there must be some sort of regulation or courtesy regarding this. The riding school concerned have just had a new surface laid so last week the lessons were in the outdoor arena [ instead of indoors] there was a nasty fall because of the shoot, the school horses are quiet but they are not police horses!.Sorry about punctuation, spelling and grammar rant over, thanks
