Same with me. About 8 years ago when I first moved to the area I door knocked around the local farms asking for rabbit shooting access and got a no from pretty much all of them. Went back to a farm (first one visited for the day) with my 13 year old son about 18 months ago and asked for a safe spot on private land to teach my boy how to shoot. Old farmer (who is known as a grumpy bugger) jumped in my ute and directed us up the back of his farm and showed an area to sight in rifles and shoot targets. Haven't asked to shoot any animals there again, YET. But I now have his trust that I'm a safe and responsible shooter. Kids are the key to access.
