Davie, a percentage of your birdage in each club goes towards prize money etc, you and every other LF member will pay around 38p per bird to the fed. We pay 55p which is about 40% more than anyone else. Its not the money, its the principle of the thing especially if other non members are getting charged less. ps Im past caring about it, but some would say it was discrimination :-/, but thats maybe too strong a word.
