Register of competent deer stalkers - results?

[Conor O'Gorman]

Absolutely, was a member back in the WAGBI days and I am proud to say still a member

Good to hear and the vast majority of BASC members feel the same way.

 

[Conor O'Gorman]

Too date this initiative is something of a deceit. Billed as a possible opportunity to provide more access to deer management through government schemes but used by BASC to enhance mentoring opportunities for members .
Not exactly “their finest hour.”

I am not aware of any government schemes involved. Perhaps you could explain where you got that idea from?

Perhaps because those that don't have left?

Yes, I think Tim we all know that you left BASC, you must have said so a hundred times or more.

 

[Mike L]

More

Oh at least I'm sure, but isn't it self evident that those of us who believe that BASC no longer represents the voice of shooting have left?

 

[Tim.243]

Good to hear and the vast majority of BASC members feel the same way.

You can add me to that club too

 

[Conor O'Gorman]

In fairness, you don't go on and on nearly half as much as Tim, perhaps it's deflection on his part and he would love to rejoin

Absolutely not, I'm getting a far better deal with the NGO who themselves were formed by disgruntled BASC members. In my opinion you get a far better deal for less money and they've made far more sensible comments about the Government/LAG lead ban than BASC. But that's not all, there's much more to it than that. If you're a BASC member check out the NGO website and see if it wouldn't suit you better.

I see they provide courses such as DSC1, Night Shooting, Game/Meat Hygiene etc which I have already; what other events do they provide for their members in the South of England.

you can do the DMQ wild boar add on at Savernake with them

 

[Oracle]

I was more interested in other events provided to members rather than courses.
