What this sheet is for
Keep an orderly account of each day on the ground, so what was taken and who was out can be shown to the permission holder without relying on memory.
Who it is for
Rough shooters, pest controllers and stalkers working on someone else's permission, and anyone running a day for guests.
How to use it
- Write in the ground and the permission holder, and keep to the conditions that permission sets.
- List every gun out, tick off the briefing before anyone loads, and note what paperwork you saw.
- Record quarry as it is accounted for, with the area and who took it.
- Note where each one went — larder, buyer, own use, disposed of.
- Give the permission holder a copy if they ask for one.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: A day's record — the ground, whose permission it is, who was out, the briefing given, and what was shot, by whom and where.
Check the rules where you are. What may be shot, when, and what paperwork has to be held differs everywhere — check the rules where you are, and keep to the conditions the permission itself sets. No species, seasons or numbers are printed on this sheet; you write in what applied on your ground on the day.
Write-on lines: Date · Ground or estate · Permission holder · Weather and conditions
Guns out today — briefing given and understood before anyone loads
Table, 4 rows: Name · Certificate seen · Insurance seen · Firearm or gun used · Briefed · Phone
Quarry and shots accounted for
Table, 7 rows: Time · Drive, field or area · Quarry · Number · By whom · Retrieved · Where it went · Notes
Questions
Why are no species, seasons or numbers printed on the sheet?
Because what may be shot and when differs by country, by region and often by the terms of the permission itself. Check the rules where you are and write in what applied on your ground; a printed list would be wrong somewhere.
Why record the briefing at all?
Because the briefing is the thing everybody remembers differently afterwards. A tick against each name, dated, says it was given before anyone loaded.
