    Hi,
    I want to start shooting pheasant, grouse etc... But need a landowner with over 50 acres to sign a form permitting me to shoot on their land. Are there any out there willing to do this and I would be happy to shoot vermin in exchange plus annual fee. Wicklow area.
    Thank you,
    D

    Who said it has to be over 50 acres? Is that on paper somewhere? Surely you know some farmer in some corner of the country willing to sign a form for you? After that then in terms of actually gaining shooting ground you'll actually have to approach farmers and ask for permission or join a gun club and go through their lines.

    Thanks for the advice. Chap I am buying gun from mentioned 50 acres. I don't know anyone with land down the country, unfortunately.

    You could always join a club and pay an annual fee.

    Contact these fellas they will pass your details onto a local club for you
