Does no one understand what a kick in the stomach a move for all firearms to sect. 1 will do to the industry, let alone to gun ownership in general. Talk to your local dealers. I bet you won't fine one of them racing to sign a petition to go all-in. The drop off in licences being renewed due to...

The lovely labour government is about to ban trail hunting in England. The resulting repercussions to all forms of hunting with hounds and dog work - even gundog flushing and deer dog work - will be effected in the long term. Please show your concerns by lobbying your MP by using the link...

Best work colleauges I ever had

God, you must examine your deer very thoroughly ! I would not be able to spot something like that with all the ticks hanging off the beasts . Just looks like a skin tag or blackthorn spine has punctured and is making its way back out.

Poor bugger gets into a knife fight with his mates. Wakes up with a tick attached that's the size of a 3rd Gonad Then bumps into me............... His mates called him 'lucky'

This afternoon a program on Radio 4 will discuss deer culling in Essex. May be worth a listen. Link to site below. Open Country

As it probably has become common practice for stalkers who process their own meat to freeze and put small amounts of carcass into their home bins at home, I wonder how this new legislation will effect what we do. New recycling rules in UK

I've gone back to two stick due to CQB tactics in woodland for muntjac. Too much faffing about with all those legs.

Mating/ season territorial fighting would be my guess. I have come across some really serious looking wounds, on chinese, where the thin skin has parted and resulted in a serious looking gash like this. Just look at some old warriors ears and face to see what those tusks can be capable of.

I lived at the confluence of the Herts, Bucks, Beds borders for many years. Roe were unheard of during the 80's. Just started to show in the 90's , but in isolated numbers. Just before I left for pastures new at the end of the 00's, I had one permission - not far from Hemel Hempsted - that...

That video is probably the best representation of how much your shotgun collection would be worth if we went to a section 1 only licencing system.

Welcome aboard.

It has beeen some years since i moved away from Hertfordshire. But, back then in the 00's , roe were a rare commodity in the shooting log. If I shot one or two a year, that would be something. Muntjac , fallow and CWD took up all the beasts shot. CWd were just starting to spread out from...

It's the gas supply. In the good 'ol days we used to paint gas pipes pink to indicate what they contained. Probably upset the MGBGT crowd doing that these days.....................

Did you bleed it fully, as soon as. after shooting it?
