socks 32,253 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 With the success of the fishing competition in only its second year why don't we as a collective organise a decent dog show come mini game fair ... We have plenty of dog men ferret men ... Shooters ... Bop lads and fishermen with plenty of knowledge to get this off the ground ... Dog shows ... Clay pigeon shooting ... Catapult range ... Air rifle range ... Fly casting competition ... Birds of prey ... Simulated coursing etc .... It could be pitched at a working mans price and the profits to a charity ..... Just an idea I had ... Do you reckon its feasible ? A proper committee would obviously have to be set up so that it didn't turn into a cake and arse party ........... 17 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,645 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Deffo feasible, but sounds like a lot more organising than a fishing comp.... Only thought I'd have is to organise it for May/June so those in the game industry haven't got birds to mind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
