novice-hunter 0 Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Hi all from a new member! I' Andy from Sheffield I am 26 & very new to hunting which I want to get into with my 9 month old bitch - she's a cross between a lab and a springer. I'm wanting a few pointers on where to start and how I can go out either doing my own shooting/retriving and hopefully take home and cook on an old fashioned solid fuel Arga or join a local club or something - Where do I start? Thanks all in advance novice hunter Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks all in advance novice hunter Andy Welcome..... Are you going to be shooting too or just interested in working your dog? As a novice (I take it from what you say that you are) it can be a minefield and there is no set route into it; as a starter I would get down to your local gun shop, they shouldhave details of any local gun dog clubs etc If you want to start shooting get down to a clay ground for a lesson, thats the best way to learn and progress. If its gun dogs, a quick Google search should find a club or trainer in your area, also BASC have a dedicated gun dog adviser, I can give you her number; and NOBS are woth a try too if its the beating/picking up side that interests you. If you want any more details or info, just PM me what you are looking to get into and I'll help if I can. Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
