Night shooting course availability
- Thread starter Dave_45
- Start date
Or thr south east please
Did one in South East last week. They ran 3 days of courses down near Brighton. Check with BDS
Over 100 miles away, hoping for one a bit closer
- New CL55 best practice (as best practice is now mandatory. Covering legalities and the "why".
- Deer ID test (species and sex, taken with NV, thermal, and white light). This one is ridiculously hard. Everyone struggled with the thermal ones.
- Night safety shot test (look at various deer targets and confirm safe shot or not)
- Night safety chat (like the DSC1 safety chat, but at night)
- Night shooting test (basically a DSC1 test, at night). No bother.
It's all about liability, which is the world we live in now. If the worst happened, insurers would point fingers and ask "what did you do to ascertain that shooter was competent, when you issued their night license".
Foxing doesn't require a license from a public body. They're basically just covering their arses
It does not matter who issued what. If something happened its the shooters fault, he pulled the trigger. He could have every qualification under the sun and have passed every assessment needed. Wouldnt matter at all. Again, load of rubbish.
Been shooting deer at night for the last 15 years, its a money making job and thats it.

Problem is if I recollect correctly, they run from October to March and when the clocks go forward, I think that it until the Autumn

You could travel for one of the last ones this year? On my course at Almondsbury we had 3 from Southern Ireland who had driven over on the day specially, and drove back the same day
