    What was the accommodation like usually that's a good indication of the people you are working for,presumably on all those days shooting you saw a share of the tips?
  2. danw
    Fixed that for you fella lol

    Would it it be fair to say that the best is not always the immediate choice with the mod
  4. danw
    It would interest me to know what you lads think a keeper should be paid
  5. danw
    Just been picky but it's wildcat not wildfire. Ohh and the connoisseur's choice would definitely be 408 cheytac for well everything really

    I'm sure deker will correct me if I'm wrong but you can't use any gun with a mv of over 3280ft/s at bisley or any other mod range So it would surely rule out the 204

    In London since 2005 168 teenagers have been stabbed to death yet only 32 have been shot ( with illegally held firearms) therefore it stands to reason that banning guns fails to work and truth be told every knife should be banned and we should all eat out food with plastic sporks

    Perhaps I have pushed the point and please don't take it personally CC it is not my intention to single you out but in my defence as a keeper we are consistently accused of breaking the law (not suggesting you guys have though)very often by the wider shooting community yet when push comes to shove they are ignorant to the very laws that allow there sport so if possible please excuse me for having the proverbial "bee in my bonnet" with regards the law and shooting

    Does it not though imply that you have limited knowledge of the general licence? I do not profess to know everything BUT I take keeping appraised of the very legislation that allows us shoot very seriously as should all who partake in our sport.
  11. danw
    I pointed it out simply because as seems to oft be the case people who shoot have very little idea of the legislation covering their sport

    First hand feeding Birds are fed twice a day morning feed takes birds to covert evening feed pulls birds back to roost Second hoppers Hopper fed birds can be a bit more trouble some but as Bernie says leap frog hoppers from roost to covert then dog covert back to roost in a evening All the above is massively simplified and assumes the drives and position of pens has been considered young and old roost identified leak points attended to and about a thousand other things I can't be bothered to type Belgianhunter if you are in the uk and fancy a day looking at a shoot

    You still miss the point what has the general licence to do with game shooting his question was quite simple Do I need a licence to shoot pheasant or hare the answer is no you do not and since neither hare nor game birds are covered by the General licence its mention is purely irrelevant
  14. danw
    Why mention the general licence it has no relevance to game birds at all?
  15. danw
    Not at all The game licence used to cost £6 or £4 if you where a keeper It was dropped in 2007 still have my last one somewhere
  16. danw
    That's dear the game dealers are only paying 20 pence a brace the minute

  22. danw
    That's harsh I suspect though you are spot on lol
  23. danw
    Mate it won't matter where you go as a keeper the idea of being appreciated be it by the head keeper or your employer is a non starter getting bollocked for f**k all is just how it goes if there is one thing I have learnt from all these years the rain of shite is like drizzle some days and a monsoon the next the further up the ladder you get the shite just rains in bigger lumps
  24. danw
