Misc Quick PSA for crown land shooters

With summer approaching, many of us are going to head out and start shooting on crown land again.

If you are going to your crown land spot, please clean up after yourselves. Don’t leave a mess behind.

Remember that it’s public land. We’re not the only ones who use it. The last thing we need is more complaints about the mess from shooters. That’s how no-shoot zones start.

You should always leave the spot in a better state than when you found it. Be respectful, and your shooting spot will stay open for longer.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

100%!! I recently visited a conservation area here in southern Ontario—we have NO other land I know of down here we can shoot on. Absolutely NO crown land for 4/5+ hours...

So seeing that some hunters are leaving hundreds of shotgun shells all over the ground throughout the marshlands is just sad! Thankfully, my local conservation organization is letting hunters use their land for seasonal hunting, but it's a shame some just leave a mess after shooting...

I’m in London, would this conservation area happen to be Fingal? Been looking for a shooting spot that won’t involve coughing up $400 just to shoot at a club…
