Actually you are correct, you cant imagine how excited we are, we got the application complete (with the help of a top guy on here instant messaging us) and went straight up the pub to celebrate, fingers and everything else crossed now.
Yes we have decided where we are going to hunt, south of Bozeman for Elk and East of Bozeman for deer!
Hunting where i live, there is no public hunting land, period!
You either have to be very rich and own your own land (i'm not either), know a friendly farmer (i know several) or pay for your deer hunting.
No license is required.
The deer in this country are Red, Fallow, Sika, Roe, Muntjac, Chinese water deer, and we have also got wild boar.
The deer population is increasing year on year, not enough females get shot, and lots of anti's refusing permission to hunt on their property.
In addition i think we have the strictest firearms controls in the world, you cant get a shotgun/rifle unless you have a very good reason, and can prove it, have an interview with the police, have the land approved by the police for rifle hunting, a handgun may be issued to a deer hunter for humane destruction of a deer, but must only be a 2 shot, these rarely get approved, step out of line, say caught drunk driving and you risk losing your guns, and the only people to own real handguns are the drug dealers.
Anyway we will take a camera and film the hunt and report back.
Cheers
Richard
