Wanted: Shooting friend offer

[patrickt]

Thank you for your kind observations, to be honest I feel like withdrawing the offer and leaving this site!!

 

[chelseablue]

I'm looking for a friend to accompany me when I go shooting. The successful person should be retired, or semi retired. They should have both centrefire ticket and shotgun ticket, and obviously able to demonstrate safety as a pre requisite. I'm not troubled if you have DS1, or DS2, in fact I would be happy to mentor you.

I have had a bad experience of "Friends", who like shooting, but they prefer to use a knife in your back approach to grasp your land from you....so hustlers need not apply. Contact me by PM with a short resume of yourself, including your shooting experience, your work career, and anything else that may make you stand out. Please include all contact details as well as the location you live in, but no need for home address.

Good Luck Patrick wish i lived near enough .

That would be a shame.
This site is good for many things, even though we all may cross swords from time to time or p1ss one another off.

If I'm in your area any time (which is not an impossibility) I'll gladly join you for a bit of company. Nice offer

Not very fair to take the mick on a post like this when the OP is putting out a good offer to the community.

He used a large font...so what.

@patrickt you can ask admin to remove the comments on your post if you would like to clean it up a bit and continue looking for a shooting companion.

Best of luck.

What a very fine offer and a great shame it's gone downhill very quickly.
I wish you luck in finding somebody to share shooting with you.
Bless.

OMG dangerous thing to offer , I am always glad to shoot with decent folks but the biggest fact is distance and cost , i rarely pay for stalking though i plainly work for myself and do my own hours . Oh and i very rarely pay money for my actual stalking , not that it doesn't cost me in other ways and favours .
Biggest part of stalking for me is of course the crack and you dont get much of that with some folks

The thing about font size, is I can never decide which size to use...

 

[finnbear270]

I always get a ribbing off the Missus when she spots messages on my phone, ENORMOUS text, much easier to read when glasses are safely in the car not on the stalk. Excellent offer by the way.

 

[Jon P]

Only a few days ago I had to increase the size of the font on my phone, was getting that I had to hold the. phone 6 inches from face to read the texts Old age does not come alone

 

[kenbro]

I was under the impression that font size doesn’t constitute shouting, but typing in all CAPITALS is shouting.
Good luck op.

[bottletopbill]

You offered to take someone out shooting on your perm.
Thank you for helping others along there journey.

Don't withdraw other's are just waiting for a chance.

 

[3xspringer]

What a great offer, would of jumped at this but I’m down south

 

[David.evans]

Looks like another good offer going tits up

 

[bottletopbill]

Lets hope the offer remains open despite the comments made and some one as a great time.
I have been lucky in the past by members and I would always respect there wishes .
They know who they are they ask me out again.

To keep shooting alive we need new folks to increase our number's.

Don't do that, you have made a very kind offer for someone.
Don't take the ribbing to heart in the.main they are a good bunch.on here that will help if they can but there is a fair bit of banter.

Agreed.

It is a shame when genuine opportunities are offered up on this forum and then the ’numpties’ step in with their unhelpful comments, which end up spoiling the post.

I find the ’ignore’ feature on this forum very useful for ensuring that I do not hear any more nonsense from these numpties.
