    As is always said here, it pays dividends to hop in the car and meet the local farmers. I got a phone call from a lad today who asked his brother in laws dad if I could hunt deer on his land, he has about 120 acres. After answering said phone call I found out that the ould legend asked the neighbours on either side of him and a couple of lads down the road. So, come september,I have over 600 acres to hunt! :D:D They also said that we would have hot dinners waiting for us every time we go there! they asked in return, please do a bit of foxing(they're all sheep farmers)no more than two or three lads hunting at a time(there will only ever be two of us)and would we mind SELLING them some venison! Obviously they will have plenty of FREE deer meat(how could you charge guys that nice) methinks next season could be a good one. It just goes to show, you don't ask, you don't get!
