How hard is it

Recommended Posts

my uncle took me out a few times when i was about 12, from that, i got my first 2 ferrets shortly after that, then my dog, at the age of 14 i was up the local abandand collery site 9 out of 10 days and was lamping on my own and ferreting on my own down the wood's, i suppose if a young person has the heart for it and there's nothing stoping he/she from hunting, fishing etc. then they would go out and do the things they want to do

It's rather hard for me as my mum doesn't like me doing it but she let's me. I have built my ferret hutch on my own, i will have to take a picture of it when i have stained it, then i'm looking for some ferrets. I have a some permission to ferret but i need someone to show me the ropes. That's why i have my topic asking if anyone lives in Northampton and is willing to show me the ropes.

I only really started last year with the actual hunting if you like as a kid i used to always go out fishing and chasing rabbits with my mates with catapults, sticks and nets (never caught anything though lol) My folks arent all that into it my dad is into fishing but thats about it. It was my uncle who used to ferret at my age and when he told me all the stories he had I thought I could give it a go so I bought my first two ferrets and from there off. Also when I got my dog there used to always be hundreds of rabbits in my garden so I would set my dog on them and he'd go chasing after them (even went missing for hours and he appeared back at the house covered head to foot in rabbit fur and blood lol) he got me into it more so with the lamp (even if he doesnt catch i believe the thrill is in the chase) I now snare (which my parents hate! lol) and trap and ferreting along with having a go with my dog. Im also in the process of turning my da into a ferreter lol he just hates the smell! same with my wee bro

well it started for me at my 13 birthday i wanted a decent BB gun not a crappy £5 thing but just as i was going to buy one a kid moved in not to far from me n he had an air arms s400 so i had to get myself an airgun instead of a BB gun because it can kill things. I knew my gramp had one so i asked if i could have it and he said yes as he had it given to him and he didnt like hunting at all, so i used to shoot targets in my garden n i told my mum it was a BB gun as she hated guns n so did my dad and after a while i went out with a different kid ferreting and i was hooked then so i got ferrets and we used to go every weekend in the season.

I then asked for a better air rifle after about a year and a half as my mum and dad knew i was hunting but didnt like it but in the end they didnt care as i never got into trouble after shooting and ferreting for a few years and was about 16 i got friendly with a bloke who owns a rifle range and started shoot rimfire and fullbore rifles.

So here i am now at the young age of 17 with an air rifle, s/s shotgun a .22rimfire,.223 rifle and four ferrets i love hunting with what i got but im not intrested with hunting with dogs im a shooting man.
