Anyone know when it is and what days it is on, I don't want to find myself being used as target practice when I go out walking in the hills!

Thanks everyone, I will continue to go out walking but will avoid sundays, don't want to be mistaken for anything other than myself!!!



I did think that shooting season was on wednesdays and sundays but i may be wrong but will keep an eye out in the papers.

scoobydoo,

Whatever you do, don't wear one of those daft scoobydoo hats with big floppy ears!

The big hunting season will start on the 25th of October, according to a decision taken by the Council of Ministers.

17 August 2009,

A statement from the Ministry of Interior and Local Government said that that the hunters will be able to hunt for 11 consecutive Sundays until the 31st of December.



And the first small hunting season will start on the 10th of January 2010.



The hunters will be able to hunt for 17 days until the 7th of March.

Hi can anyone help us please.

Myself and my mate wish to do clay pigeon shooting when in Cyprus in September.

Are there any clubs near Esentepe? Do you have to bring your own guns? Can we just come along and shoot and hire guns?



Thanks

Lee

Lee,



I must admit I have never heard of clay pigeon shooting over here, maybe someone else has heard of something for you.
