In the old days there where a few writers on here you could read about a day out on here and next week in the countryman's weekly now theres new folk coming threw it cant be a bad thing ,as theres not a write up from the usual crew

no far from it, its good to have variety rather than having to read the same stuff over and over, plus there may even be a chance of learning something new

^{Whilst I do agree with the detailed criticisms on the articles, I do also think it s better that there is a weekly magazine representing the sport in a fairly responsible light because lets be honest with ourselves the sport is on its knees and has been for years; there are still unsavoury elements dragging this once proud way of life into the gutter, dogs get stolen, idiots poach and thieve, the dogs shelters are full of poor lurchers and some working dog welfare is appauling as the fad hunters go from one fix to the next.}

 

^{If you are unhappy with the content of the paper then why not contribute? as diverse opinions will only improve the magazine. I do however agree that Shooting News was a better publication in the past.}
