Matt 160 Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Where do you intend using any freebies you get? Have you got some permission, or are you planning on using them elsewhere? I'm sure there are people in your locality who could take you out and show you some sport; a good idea would be to get 'in' with a local keeper. Even if you live in a built up area, you should be able to cycle or bus it to your nearest shoot. Beating is a great way 'in' and also gets you some dosh. Join NOBS for more information.

Well my step nan owns a small farm just down the road where i currently snare, but she wont let me shoot there, i have no idea if there is a keeper local to me, and to be quite honest mate i would rarther just snare and ocasionally shoot with an air rifle, i am ok on the farm for now, but ofcourse i will be looking for more permissions later on, probably next year now. My grandad is the only one that could accompany me on these shoots ect, and he has a dodgey heart so he cant walk that far, and he dosent like loud noises, unfortuatly all of my family except for him are antis :\ Quote Link to post

Haha yeah mate, well i did actually make a bird trap thing with some old chicken wire i found, put it in my garden but no luck, i made 1 snare out of some crab line and some wire that i found, but the wire all frayed and didnt work properly lol, Quote Link to post
Matt 160 Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 I may be a bit 'out of touch' with modern ways of doing things; but do you really need to be accompanied by a family member? I was beating from the age of 12, and none of my family ever even offered me a lift! Get yourself onto the NOBS website and see what they can do to help. You will soon convert your 'anti' relations when they see that your interest is not just a 'whim'. Quote Link to post
