    I enjoyed my DSC 1 with Ronnie Rose but I done it when his father participated in the coarse and he made it a great 2 days. I am sure if you follow wireviz you will find somewhere closer than Eskdalemuir.

    When you say mandatory for an FAC, I take it you mean for deer stalking, not just generally? They cannot just arbitrarily decide on DSC for everything else! Sorry - its for everything, that is if you apply for a FAC for deer, vermin control etc and are using a large calibre rifle, then they wont issue it unless you have level 1. Cant comment on target shooting, etc. Just passing on what the assessors told me What a load of codswallop the assessor is going to say that so you pass it on to people who are ignorant of the facts lol Its not mandatory to have your DSC1 prior to

    Thats a good offer of an Accredited witness(Wireviz) from an experienced Deer Stalker with a good reputation in Scotland. My previous post's may have been misleading but it was a bit of leg pulling that went a bit too far appoliges Dave again. Merry Christmas everyone

    Right enough's enough I agree As for the gracious offer of a days stalking is that on the Skeoch by anychance? If so thanks but no thanks,I can stalk that already. My point of joining the thread in the first place was to try and put a point across that its a bit like choosing a rifle or anything if you like it and feel comfortable with it then buy it I prefer realtree and some prefer the traditional tweeds but I aint going to slag anybody off for wearing either. As for the Lurcher men and poachers wearing realtree in my experience they usually opt for the traditional ex army clothing or gr

    As I said Wireviz/Longshot/Davie every dog has its day Can you not just come onto the comp and have a difference of opinion and let go.No instead you try and upset insult and get ratty (no pun intended) when people push the right button's If you are telling me you don't shoot deer in the lamp at Whitelee's I believe you honest I do Hey Wireviz am I supposed to be impressed by your photo of the back of whitelee's forest with turbine in the skyline or what I don't get your point in that one? Do you actually know how many people you are upsetting with your opinion's or are you oblivious to

    So I am a piece of work now lmao that made me smile but hey ho Wireviz I wouldn't lose any sleep over phoning the flying squad I work hard and if someone is just going to come and thieve off me well they deserve all they get. So you have a lamping license for Deer around Whitelee's Wireviz?? Now remember thats very very easy to check now and one wee phone call I will have my answer I know a boy who as you say "Sorted it himself" the armed response unit was down the very next morning and removed all his guns and he had informed the police of poacher's on his ground then confronted them a
  13. scotrat
    Wireviz you know you lamp all over the whitelee's mate so the next time I see the lamp out of the Vitara I will phone the flying squad is that really what you want?? So if your such a good guy why were you on stalking ground owned by Coursehill Farm You tar yourself by the comments and derogotory remarks you make instead of just having a difference of opinion
  14. scotrat
    Just a wee note from the wise on this site.I have sat back and read from afar for 2 long Wireviz if u had been wearing Real tree up at Coursehouse Farm maybe you wouldn't have been spotted poaching the ground and the visit from the police prevented. I have monitored your post's on many of the sites and you seem to want to wind folk up and have silly idea's about deer stalking and clothing. Realtree is one of the best clothing for deer stalking. Wireviz/longshot you cannot comment about lamping the less said the better

    The DSC 1+2 are flaweded in their current format in my opinion.I have witnessed people turn up with the level 1 having answered a few question's and taken an accuracy test to find out if they can shoot at a deer shaped piece of paper with little or no experience of actually shooting a deer. I think the level 1 should have a stalk thrown in aswell for the price £250 is too much for a shooting and biology lesson I agree with testing of some sort and a revamped level 1 would be suffice but to scrap the DSC1+2 and have another test I am totally against,I forked out my hard earned money due to th

    I have 5 jill kits for homing they are 6 weeks old and used to fur and dry food. I have 1 poley and 4 albino's. I am in the Glasgow area although I would deliver to anyone who is serious whether for pet or work. Please PM me if interested

    I think you have created a FIVE STAR appartment block for your wee ferrets they will be as happy as pigs in shit lol I am going to try and make a Palace like that, Great work did you work from plans?? If so can you please send em me lol
  19. scotrat
    No thats not correct it will take you about 3-4 months to gain the permission for the Shotgun cert or firearms cert.You can't buy any gun or ammo without a certificate. You will need to do some more research and my advice would be to do a year or 2 with an airgun and actually try and learn about firearm safety before applying for any cert the Police will ask you all sorts of questions and you need to be ready for them.You will need to try and get a mentor to learn you the basics and hopefully learn you to respect your quarry whatever it is

    Google rabbit damage in the Uk they cause about 5million pound of damage currently, I have a letter somewhere and will look for it. I will pm you when I find it. Is there no-one on the site willing to help this young Lad?????????

    welcome aboard friend why don't you get a few ferret's aswell as the .22 rimfire.It absolutely brilliant very addictive and if you know a few ferret men they will help you out with a few kits and be ready for the winter season coming up I have few pieces of ground at 3 and 4 acres witha rimfire and the police won't have a problem with you using a .22 on 25 acre plot Good luck with the FAC and hopefully you'll give ferreting a try

    I am a gamekeeper member of the SGA wireviz and that a big accusation that we would get the new cert without a test. I feel if they do bring in a new test anyone who has the DSC2 should get grandfather rights anyway but thats my opinion. I would advise anyone who has an interest in this to go to http://www.scottishgamekeepers.co.uk/sites...02009%20Act.doc and read themselves what the SGA are doing about the current Wildlife and Environment Bill without listening to rumours and hearsay, as a minority we all need to stick together and fight this to the end, hopefully together we can have a say

    this a quote from the SGA website about the current proposals.The big organisation's should be standing together on this one. SGA concern over deer welfare The Scottish Government’s proposal to abolish the close season for stags and allow them to be driven towards waiting guns by vehicles would immediately reduce wild deer to the status of vermin and see herds of iconic wild animals decimated on Scotland’s hills according to the Scottish Gamekeepers Association (SGA) which represents the country’s deer stalkers and wildlife managers. SGA chairman Alex Hogg said it beggared beli

    This is exactly what it says in law and you can have a shot gun cert under the age of 15 but must be supervised also I would recon your FAO will insist you are supervised until the age of 18 Age limits Firearms Under 14 years old Persons under the age of 14 may have firearms and ammunition in their possession provided they are only carrying them for, and under the instruction of, the owner, who is himself using them for sporting purposes. Other than this, it is an offence to give or lend a firearm to a person under 14. From 14 to 16 You may hold a firearm certificate and be
