Game licences haven't been available in England since they where discontinued in 2007.

 

Shit, I didn't know that! Never had call for one to be honest. You learn something new every day!

 

Then I guess your f****d if you don't want to control them...

It's an open forum trench foot please share

We have a few acres of our own and moor grazing rights over another 600 acres. We keep sheep, pigs, chickens and a few horses. I also manage the land for a rough shoot and duck shooting. The area has no shortage of critters that could be classed as "fair game" for lurcher lads, hares been reasonably plentiful. They may attract attention from lurcher lads, but I would not shoot them, nor do any of the other land owners around here shoot them with a view to reducing the attention of the lurcher lads.

 

I keep a few lurchers myself, and am more than aware of the practices involved, good and bad. The practice you describe of driving the land, without permission and negligence in mind is abhorrent to me, my other farming colleagues and most lurcher folk that I would have any time for. The "vermin" that need shooting are the ones that have no respect for their quarry, the land that they are on and the shit they leave behind. That applies to twats with dogs and twats with guns

Our land/girlfriends family has 200arce around our house and more in various places. We often get lads lamping it. Fair enough iv poached before, never been caught because we never left a trace. No gates left open no livestock bothered and clever lamping around buildings/houses but these guys took the piss. If it was to become a regular thing I would go out shot the lot if it ment they got the idea there was none on the land for the sake of the damage to crops. Obviously no one wants to kill everything but I was making the point if that was what was needed for them to get the idea after the 1st or 2nd time they wouldn't bother coming back.

Once you create a void, something will fill it. If the environment will support a notable number of hares, and you clear them out off your permission, others will be pressured in. Your land owners need to get some balls, the only time hares should be hammered is when they start to be easy to catch by dogs (daytime)

 

If somebody rapes your daughter, who do you shoot first? Your daughter?!

they are already classed as game in Southern ireland and so are afforded a closed season, the same should be done in the whole of the UK in my opinion

Mine to.

He chased them in the at for around 5miles before they thought they could pull in a village and turn the lights off, the police had been told and caught up with them in the village taking names, reg etc

 

Does he grow massive balls stop them pull them out the car and do them over meaning the farm is attacked in the following week?

Fair play, but I stand by my veiw that clearing off the hares is not the answer. they will only find something else to run
