runforyourlife 361 Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 May not be the AUTHORS, what about the editors who decide what goes in and what does not. The political climate is so crap for hunting, shooting and fishing they must be covering their asses and still trying to generate advertising income. Whitout it it would not be printed. Hate it or not fact of life. You have heard it on here watch out for the Antis, RSPCA, Polis, RSPB. You must know the rest. HSF folks are trying to overturn the ban. Maybe a bit of constraint until we get rid of the present government would be worth it. the law has set out a wildlife survey called lbaps its the goverment action plan to the naturel uk run by brussels and every county has it. this is what the goverment back door key get into http://www.ukbap.org.uk/GenPageText.aspx?id=57 Hell, theres some reading to be done there pal.... its a lot to take in, but an interesting page to keep...

I have just bought my saluki a dalmante collar for 40quid because she looks gorgous in it walking down the road! She hunts everyday with my 2 other bullx and colliex! And my mate is 25 stone and hard as a fecking brick wall, but he still lies on his couch with his bullgreyhounds and patterdales sprouled all over him!! Quote Link to post
mole trapper 1,693 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Mackem, you think country maids is full of addys, you should try shooting sports its not a magazine its a bloody catalogue these days, nothing but reviews and most of them are by that tit wadeson, reckon he,s batting for the other side as well. Why they dont put a few actual hunting related articles in there i dont know. Oh and for the record of course by batting for the other side i would mean being left handed. Quote Link to post
mackem 27,029 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Pete Wadeson MT,hasnt he confined his writings to single-handedly taking over Gunmart? Quote Link to post
mole trapper 1,693 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 As well indeed mackam, they are though bed fellows ! The two catalogues, sorry i mean magazines, and the reference to bed fellows was aimed at the magazines and not to be taken towards its contributors of course. Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 All the mags and weeklys are crap, they're all scared the anti's will attack them or take them to court or something, if they don't have the spine then they should give it up, we are all better off living our own stories and talking about it down at the pub.

Nice one, you will be disappointed mate because all articles are submitted agree to be edited, they "POLISH" them up, you may not recognise your writing, any chance it can bring disrepute or offend anyone or contravene the hunting act leaves them open for prosecution, so hence the nice grammar and stories, I have done some a couple of years ago and know the score from experience. Good luck, keep us posted. Quote Link to post
grompz 703 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I had about a dozen articles printed in the old-style shooting news when I was an 18 year old kid,cant remember how much I was paid,certainly less than £20 an article because I wasnt a "Name" or a regular writer,I havent bought a CMW for months,the magazines lost its sharpness,just page after page of adverts used to really enjoy it when it was shooting news, it was jammed packed with real genuine lurcher and terrier articles written by true dogmen like phil lloyd and daergi , bought some damn good pups from back pages,think the cost in the early eighties was 40p, still buy it as cmw,but have to agree it has become a lot more political with a lot of trade adverts,but saying this still find a lot of intresting bits to read,even if some of it is repotious.

runforyourlife 361 Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Yeah, and lets face it, what else is there to read??? I just keep in touch with events and dates. What it needs is a letters page where we can have our say but like we have pointed out alreready today, they will get in trouble or not print the right letters, just the righteous ones..
