morton 5,368 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Its a no win situation,you try and do the right thing and go for permission,you get knocked back time after time,frustration creeps in and you do what you have to do,to get the mutt some runs.If you keep asking,even making a nuisance of yourself and knocking the same doors,eventually you will get a positive response,it will most likely be on land thats not really worth the effort,but it gives you a legitimate excuse to be out,day or night.Treat the permission with respect and little pockets of land will open up to you,don,t take no for an answer and persevere.Be polite.

madmacca 15 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) i went and basicly wouldnt take no for an answer and kept them there talkin for a while tellin them my back ground of hunting it works sometimes sometimes it dont but from mine i have gained a huge rabbit infested golfcourse whit 3 reds on it that get left alone chicken farms, evan a farm in middle of know where lol i have had my days of knocking and as soon as i have mentioned hunting i get a sharp no and a door shut in my face. trust me i felt like burning the farm down but that wouldnt be good so i bit my tounge moved on and tried again i did have alot of land that was handed over to some other lads that i cant get back all because i didnt go there for a little while or contact farmer gutted p.s. a bottle of plonk for xmas to each of the property owners keeps them on your side and u can gain more land via this atb paul Edited December 9, 2011 by madmacca Quote Link to post
