Introduction_New from West Lothian, Scotland

[PeterGB]

Evening Gentlemen

Thank you for a great forum.

We (family of 5) immigrated to Scotland from South Africa (November 2021) and are loving our new home country.

A brief hunting/stalking history, I have been hunting/culling on family farms since the age of 13, selling the last game farm in 2016.

I was also actively shooting PRS competitions (6.5CM) in SA up until Nov 2021. Currently in the process of acquiring my FAC here in Scotland after joining a 100m indoor range in West Lothian, Scotland.

Would love to connect with fellow hunters/stalkers in the UK/Scotland and learn more about stalking opportunities over here.

Many thanks
Peter B

@takbok Thank you Rory. Through the name, can I presume you hunted in SA? Takbok being the name we use for Fallow deer.

You are most welcome Peter. I am in Aberdeenshire and have met quite a few of your countrymen through shooting sports. If you ever venture north please get in touch for some range time and perhaps a stalk.
