Hare Shoot According To Baw

[gsdxg 10]

j darcy .it would make no difference to my dogs in the past if they were park deer or not park deer. pheashants are just reared in pens some are so tame you could throw a handfull of corn and they will come to you .most of my deer especially cwd in the past were wild woburn estate deer i took very few deer from the park itself a handfull of cwd one fallow and a barasinga and one pere davide .even if i did catch a odd park deer at least they had hundreds of acres to run away in they were not herded into fields and blasted with shotguns or shot from hundreds of yds away with a rifle thats very sporting i must say .i dare say even at sixty i could out walk you .come round in the season we will have a walk out for about 4 or 5 hours at speed of course .thats of course if you and your dogs are up to it which i very much doubt.or maybe you should come around in two years time when my new gsdxg anubis will be in his prime you can be my bearer then if you are up to it

Funnily enough, I haven't.

try it mate, it's an eye opener

I do regularly, lol. Maybe it's a chap on the other end of the lead they have a problem with?

I've seen you mate, they probably think yours is a pet

No mate, ya see, I don't carry this huge chip on my shoulder and treat folks with the "holier than thou" biggoted mentality of some working class hero preventing me from actually getting to know them and what they really think of me.

 

I can see how that concept is unfamiliar to you....

These driven Hare days is all about pound notes not control

Shooting 300-600 hares on a Estate in a day aint control its slaughter .

How can anyone think that's right.

 

And I'm sure Hares were Coursed by hounds long before they were shot at.

 

I can condone one for the Pot shooters but Shooting hares in the name of Sport ' Na never.

Like I say bring back Coursing as A way to Control Hare numbers its cleaner and more selective.

Totally beneficial to the Hare where as shooting aint in any way shape or form.

Money money money.

3 hares eat as much grass as 1 sheep. If I was a livestock farmer, and no one was paying me to preserve hares for coursing, I would not be happy losing that much grazing. I would almost certainly look to reduce my losses. If I could make some money back at the same time, so much the better.

 

People seem to forget that the countryside is an industrial landscape just like a factory.

[Brigzy 1,298]

It's a sad fact that the hunting "community" still attack each other at every opportunity; the shooters v the coursers, the Hunts v the foxing lads, even the lampers v the daywalkers !! I, personally, Hunt, shoot , fish, lamp, course, ferret, and, yes, have even been on a hare shoot !! I find it unbelievable that there are some on here, members of a HUNTING SITE, that are advocating the banning of shooting !!! They are doing the Anti's and the RSPCA's work for them ! Yes, of course I'd far rather see a hare coursed than lamped or shot or snared; but But to try and ban another hunters sport, makes me worry about what little field sports we have left in this country; I can imagine the politicians saying "why should we repeal The Hunting Act, when they are trying to get each other banned ?" !!!

Max, how many of these hare shoots do you personally know of mate to make that sort of claim? You haven't a clue. Come down to Lincs, drop ya anti shooting prejudices and try engaging in conversation with some of the sportsmen down here. The ones I know of are mostly free to the guns, invitation usually between DIY syndicates, beaters, farmers etc. It's pest control and 1000 hares may be taken over 4 saturdays EVERY YEAR!
