    Yeah the only people who could answer that definitively are your gun club committee.

    Generally if you have permission for game birds I can't see an issue with being allowed to shoot rabbits but your club could have very specific agreements made with certain land owners so you have to check with them.

    Depends when you say "Club Grounds" are you
    1. Talking about all land with your Gun Club boundaries
    OR
    2. Talking about lands which are owned or lease by your club.

    In regards to No.1 - no one has the right to walk lands within a club boundary unless permission has been obtainied by the club or you as an individual by the landowner. We tell all our members being in the club does not give you the right to shoot lands, permission must be gotten individually basis.

    In regards to No.2 - Happy Days

    In response to number one Terrier, are you on about going over the ditch into neighbouring lands? or all land thats preserved for the club
