Rabbit Hunter 6,613 Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Well done, I think you need luck on your side and also to be in a decent area for fox numbers so that the landowner sees them as a problem. Last summer I spent a few full days knocking and handing cards out in my area but got nothing. Quote Link to post

BlackDog1 134 Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I've knocked and knocked, drove hundreds of miles and still had nothing. It sickens you when you keep getting turned away. I dress smart, speak politely and offer to do jobs around the farm etc but still no good. I will be going knocking again soon and I'll be handing cards out. Something should finally pop up 1 Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,416 Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) Well done Lee, you've done the easy part and got your foot in several doors, but, now the hard work starts to keep your permissions and farmers happy. Wait 'till you're getting the phone calls at eleven at night asking can you come in the morning, LOL. Edited June 24, 2015 by neil cooney 1 Quote Link to post
