DoaS 0 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Just saying hello as newly registered I'm located up in central Scotland, firearms and shotgun cert holder, also do very occasional shooting down Yorkshire way. I've just been given permission to shoot rabbits and squirrels on a local golf course - anyone got any experience of this kind of shooting, and what kind of restrictions I can expect from the golf club? I guess it's not going to do to shoot rabbits etc in front of golfers :headshot: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DoaS 0 Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Excellent! Looking forward to it!!!! Waiting for my Countryside Alliance membership pack to arrive so I have proof of insurance before I go and sort out details with the golf club. With the late light evenings I'm hoping for some good dusk action, and I'm happy to go out stupidly early every so often to bag a few at dawn.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
