i had this problem, i had all together well over ,000 acres 5 year ago but sily l me joined the army and lost most of it. the stuff i still had has been wiped by others. i dont drive not for two weeks so i bought a map and looked at the land. walked miles and miles over a a couple of months on foot paths and found land worth having. i then approached the owners, with no dogs!!, dressed smart, country style on some and shirt and shoes on other(it makes a difference lol) i made a hunting shooting cv with past permissions and refferences, also insurance including basc, ca and ngo. belting write
