Hi guys , I've been reading requests for shooting permission and really surprised at some comments, I personally have been door knocking looking for permission but finding it increasingly difficult to obtain permission, this said I do understand the aprehension of land owners who don't know you personally, I'm not exactly a young guy , I don't look /act one bit dodgy , i am quite respectabile well mannered and sensible with a good job and still struggling to get somewhere, it is very disheartening when you receive a "" no sorry "" , so to hear comments like "" go knock on doors like the rest of us """ is very frustrating.

Do we not think that as forum users we are all here for the same thing , interested in the sport and not just some mindless hooligans looking for somewhere to shoot anything that moves and bring bottles of buck fast and a load of friends with us,

I would love to get the opportunity from a farmer / landowner to prove that there really are decent people out here who are genuine and can respect whatever a land owner says that you can and cannot do on their land, I've even offered my services as a joiner / site agent to land owners if they require help in any way in return for the opportunity to shoot on there land, but they are still apprehensive , again I don't blame them , so guys spare a thought for people like myself who door knock and still struggle, also to any land owners / farmers in and around the Glasgow / south Lanarkshire and beyond areas, I would be grateful for an opportunity to shoot my pcp on your land and show you there are still respectful people out here.

Many thanks to all who read and understand
