Just wondering if anyone can clear this subject up for me please.
Do i require a game licence to shoot pheasants? I know you used too but have heard that this is no longer the case,can someone please help?

Pheasants belong to someone! so shooting them is not something I do as it would be poaching.
People pay to shoot them and pay a lot of money for the right to do that.
My thoughts
Chinese springer 0.22, HW100 .177. Selection of powder burners
When there were extra pies to eat, I avoided them.
Are on your land you shoot on, then they are legal fodder.
No if's or butt's on this, shooting times had a write up and this was the outcome.

not my land I shoot on, the game keeper who lets me shoot there would go ballistic with me and I would loose my shoot

Thanks very much to all for replying to this thread,i have managed to speak to the land owner and i am allowed to take the odd pheasant, Obviousely this is with my tubes and not the air-rifle,so i have promised to only take on the challenging shots and not the easy ones,as we all do anyway as there is no point on shooting something that is sitting on the end of your barrels(unless its a rat).And as i do pigeon and all other vermin on this land i wouldn't want to lose such a good shoot!! As we all know a shoot is so hard to get now adays but very easy to lose. Thanks once again to all.
