Whereabouts in the East Midlands are you based as I have quite a lot of land around that region.

no not like that just new to the internet community side of the sport. :!: I'm a keen shooting and already have rights to shoot over plenty of land in melton, stanton on soar and mountsorrel. my difficulty with the forum at the minute is the criticise of some people and the trust of. if i allowed someone to join me at the areas i hunt on how do i know someone wouldn't go up with out me and put my name forward if anyone asked (iv known this to happen) therefore get me in trouble with the land owner.

Because simply, it doesn't work like that, not on THIS forum anyways, unless directly approached through shooting services offered section. Members would only go shooting on other members 'permissions' with that member present! ;)

In addition to what Dave has already said, most of the Forum members know one another personally, have shot with one another in some form or another and loads of other scenarios.

My phone is absolutely bursting at the seams with Forum members phone numbers with invites to shoot or indeed social occasions. Its not the first time I have been on the phone to members about various things from technical help to fix the car, legal advice in relation to licensing, etc etc etc...

There are some real cracking blokes on here who will bend over backwards for you and expect nothing in return, kindness like that cannot be bought!

I can vouch for this!

I just hope it is never abused, and on this note-I thank you :thup:

I have given some members on here pheasant shooting days on a Yorkshire farm shoot , not one has let me down , and all have proven to be safe and competent guns .
