RicW 67 Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 Seaford Town Council, which runs the local golf course, has been employing qualified keepers to use shotguns to cull rabbits which have been wrecking greens and fairways on the golf course. Local hunny buggers are going spare. I have written to the rag to complain. Why not employ a guy with a .22lr? That way the bunnies would be edible. Don't it get on yer tits? Local "wildlife expert" says build a rabbit proof fence all round the course. Ric Quote Link to post Share on other sites

olim 28 Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 'I have written to the rag to complain. Why not employ a guy with a .22lr?

I'm quite sure that almost every golf course will have pest control, they need to or they wouldnt have any customers. what wrong with using a shotgun anyway, most of the time they dont get eaten when its this type of pest control.

terrier410 53 Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 never had a problem doing local golf course with air rifle find most rabbits there are used to people walking around not bothering them so can get well within range dusk or dawn. (they all get eaten) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sikastag_1 689 Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 aint being funny mate but for a start why would you complain about what gun a fellow hunter is using aint like hes using a 30-06, also what makes the rabbits non edible because theyre shot with a shotgun lol? so you think all pheasant,duck,patridge,grouse,geese,hare and rabbit that the gamedealer gets is shot with a 22 or caught in a net? and this aint to cause an argument just a query as to why a rabbits not edible when shot with a shotgun?
