Summer shooting in Ireland
Hi all,
Hope you are all well. Unfortunately I haven't got out as much this summer as I normally would, however, I did get out a few days & recorded some footage, please see below:
This outing is the most recent one on barley stubble
On the same farm a few weeks earlier
Some crow shooting

Impressive!
What is the process to own a shotgun in Ireland? Is wingshooting a large sport there?

Ollie, that looks like an area I shot at in Co. Wicklow.

Re: Summer shooting in Ireland
Thanks. You must have a clean record, have good reason to own a gun (I.e. Vermin control or game shooting), you must have written permission from at least 3 farmers & then you apply for your firearms license.
Yes there is a lot of decoying on crops during the summer, both woodpigeons & crows. Also a lot of game shooting, pheasants, partridge & woodcock in the winter.
