Welcome To Shoot-Watch Shoot-Watch is a FREE SERVICE set up to assist local farmers and land owners control pest species such as rabbits, pigeons, crows and rooks. Members of Shoot-Watch are vetted by us for suitability to place on landowners lands and hunt pest species. The current members all shoot sub twelve foot pound air rifles with an effective kill range of up to 40 yards (depending on the shooter) and the pellet will not travel much more than 100 yards. Our members will be able to shoot on a regular controlled basis offering an effective pest control service to local farmers and land owners. We will be able to place hunters on land at regular days and times as and when the land owners require, whether to control pigeons at times of sowing and sprouting, rabbits when crops are growing or rooks and magpies at lambing season. Our members are all fully insured either through the BASA or BASC, both reputable shooting organisations and shoot in pairs or larger groups to ensure safety at all times. Notices can be put up to let others know that air gunners are operating in the area. Full details of who will be shooting are passed onto the land owner and a schedule of vermin control will be agreed with the client. The service is offered free of charge and our shooters would like to take some of their kills home. If we are offering a ratting service our shooters will need either a pit or incinerator close by to dispose of the rats. At present our shooters are only able to legally shoot the following:
We do have customers come into the shop that shoot shotguns and live round so we may be expanding the pest control to larger species such as foxes if required in the future. To enquire about this service either phone us on 01626 357097, send us an e-mail at info@newtontackleandgun.co.uk or leave a message on the Shoot-Watch Forum by clicking here |
