I used to shoot wedding (photography) then people starting shootong them for less then 500 quid and even for free - it near crippled the industry sector. Wouldn't it be better to charge per pelt as it were? or is there more hassle and laws to contend with?

Great thread - learned a lot thanks
Hi Kaya,
You Do get something in return
You get All you Shoot to take home and eat, give to others or sell to butchers
You get permission to go on land beloning to others free of charge to do your shooting without being bothered by others and all the enjoyment from this,
you also need Insurance incase of any damage/injury to protect you, the public and the farmer/land owner,
if you try charging you will have to declare it as an extra income,
Permissions will be few and far between but someone may pay you-Who knows?
this is just a quick answer but i'm sure someone else will let you know more,
atb,
Les
