welshmatt88 0 Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 Hey everyone i know i'l probably get alot of stick from older emembers but here goes. i'm only 18 but i've been shooting, ferreting and working with terriers doing bushing and ratting for years, however i would like to get into digging foxes and learn all about it, im in Gwent so just wondering if anyone near there would be keen on letting me come along any time, i live on farm, so if anyone who would help me out in learning bout digging wanted any permission for ratting or rabbiting then im sure something could be sorted. Thanks Quote Link to post

Guest Leveller Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Hello Matt, do any hunts go on your farm? Brecon & Talybont/Monmouthshire/Gallinger farmers? if they do then being a landowner will put you in very good stead when the Masters visit your place before hunting have a word ask politely or get your dad to enquire if you could go along with the terrierman when they're local to you especially if they are on your farm they won't refuse because it's your land mate.
