few old pics, all long gone

Had an early start with a mate of mine , cold crisp northerly breeze , heavy frost .It turned into one of those days where everything stopped to look instead of running ..two doe’s, yearling and two buck fawns paid the price .I’ll finish the doe’s at the end of the month , I’ve never been a fan of march doe’s ....the youngsters are destined for the freezer ..

One from couple seasons back,was a fair old lump .

Its the closest iv been to one of these, there was 4 in the next field to me and my mate when we went out for a mooch, there was a fence between us, just thought id get a pic of it.

You lads are all that's good about this site at moment ,Cracking thread that hopefully will run and run .

I suppose it’s like anything else, we all like to think we would fix bayonets and charge blindly into the fray........but until you are on the ground and in the reality who knows. 6 minutes is barely enough time to access the situation and decide on a course of action.......this officer would have been just as useless dead I suppose. By the time he had made a plan of action it’s all over. This smells a little bit like the media trying to rubbish the armed person / first responder in a school idea.......and they will happily make this poor dude a pariah to suit their politics.

Well I got out for a few hours today lads with the newly zeroed Pro Sport. I put a hide up by a tree that I know gets pigeons dropping in and waited. Just 5 minutes in and a Magpie was sat in the highest branches, the strong wind had him bouncing and riding, leaving him with a reversed Mohican feather cut to the top of his head and me with a " just missed". So we waited and waited and waited when I noticed the tiniest flicker, - tells me my concealment is good A hawk just 28 yds off.

Had few yesterday and a brace of black ones among them, there a bit different than others we catch they are all black. Cheers Arry

The officer was out gunned granted but not massively one on one and he was trained whereas the kid was just a lunatic ... throw in screaming kids running around wild and in hysterics and you have a shitstorm ... but the cop knew the school inside out and would know where the shooter was and how to get to him or cut him off ... one man isn't going to go running in all rolling on the floor and shooting from the hip like Rambo ... BUT he could have steadily made his way into that school to where the shooter was staying in cover and attempted to neutralise the threat ... but he didn't and that for

The difference is wilf he is trained to do this job ... he will have had firearms training he will have done hostage training armed attack scenarios put in situations where he has to think quickly and asses the situation formulate a plan and act on it .... he didn't do any of that he fell apart and froze whilst he listened to kids getting killed ... he will rightly carry that shame and guilt with him like a ball and chain for the rest of his life ......

Northern rabid rabbit

I dont know where in wales you are but i will be breeding some from my workers this summer...... drop by and take what you want mate, probably sort you a dozen nets and a carry box to go home with you aswel bud atb

Apologies Stiff I have re read again ,my replies were completely wrong . Hope you can accept I was miles off the mark

The bottom line as I see it anyway is that this cop wasn't an ordinary member of the public who happened to be carrying a gun and was wandering on by ... he was paid to do a job which was to protect that school and everybody in it from just such an incedent ... he will have had extensive training in all manner of scenarios and situations and the drills should have been second nature to him ... should he run in all all guns blazing with a bandana on his head ... of course not ... should he have gone in tactically using cover to advance to the shooter getting as close as he could to either kill

I would not believe anything that comes from the media without being able to substantiate it. Let the investigation run it's course then all will become evident. The above media report says " peterson who stands over 6ft tall was outside the building for four minutes" what has his height got to do with anything? unless they are trying to say the taller the man the braver he should be? media have the nasty habit of a creating juicy headlines in the heat of the moment to sell papers.

They scratch like girls wait until a southern rabbit gets you .... its straight to A+E ........

A bitch killing another bitches pups is not uncommon in all breeds of dogs nor is a bitch eating her own pups if there was an outside threat such as another bitch looking in. It's an ancient territorial instinct.

Don't go too far in the tall and racy departmental, as it don't necessarily go that you will get something 1/2 way between. Use a stud that would be a dog you'd own ,and would do everything you want. Maybe the same cross as the bitch but showing the traits you want. Just adding greyhound will add speed for sure ,but may not be as robust or sensible so as well as adding speed you could be adding recklessness too. A lurcher that has had a good handful of seasons without too many injuries and a good catch rate ,would come before a dog only with speed to offer.

Some real big ens on here. I got a 18lb one and taught that was a whopper!!

If you see something you like and you can give it a fair chance to blossom then why not ? I wouldn't advocate doing it when there's other options on the table, much better to find a well bred pup and put some time and effort into it. It's a long story how I came by Jess but the short version is I gave it a chance because I was going professional and it would at least give a decent terrier a rest when she was out instead. I chucked everything and kitchen sink at the bitch, it sounds c**t' ish but she didn't mean anything to me so I just kept piling on the graft. She never missed a bea

a 40lb is a joke I shot 1 .I think it was last year it was nearly 22lb and it was nearly as big as the roe we shot earlier in the day used it to get the fox in . maybe if I had shoved a case of carts down its throat I might have got it to 40lb

Couple of hours not wasted then. Worth taking the pictures as they bring back the memories ?

9mm v 5.56 semi auto AR15 and people in here give the impression that they would have just blindly ran in, I wonder what would happen if this scenario became a reallity for some?

It is RH found an old box when I was looking for something else , wasted a couple of hours reminiscing ? , yeah its the same stuff ?

My 2

is that your pm trudeau ?

I would be keeping away from moose number 50 in the future lol ........

LOL there lots of aggressive critters out there Ted when i first moved back here I kept looking over my shoulder every few seconds making sure i wasnt being stalked by something it took me a few months before i didnt do it anymore. lol

we digress a bit this one is fckn hilarious and this is a calf moose

My old man had kennels when we were growing up. 2 dogs came in for boarding. An adult and a pup. The owners were hell bent on them sharing a kennel and my old man advised that they hadn’t known each other long enough. The owners were adamant and they went in together. Early morning we went in to walk and clean the kennels......only the one dog in the pen! Adult dog had killed and eaten the whole thing. The only thing left was a bit of skin and some fur. Try explain that when the owners come back from holiday!

I had a accidental mating there was 3 pups 2 where half eaten by a terrier bitch who was the quitest dog I've owned

Pud your thread on ratting is excellent mate and pictures are some of the best iv seen, I have bedy whippets that are as good as any terrier on rats my bedy whippet x Patterdale will have one in her jaws and pin another with her feet, atb mate

Buy a book, simon whitehead’s is good, you can refer back to it time and time again while your learning the ropes

Rosie = Issac x Rosie(Mona's dam) i think

Yet certain people can wear turbans burkas etc & afro’s fukin bizzare. Atb

Shame teachers don't show respect when it comes to rules or just respect Hated all teachers in the late 60's and 70's . I can remember pulling into a petrol station i must of been about 25 and one of my old teachers came up a said to me so what are you doing , I replied very well thank you , I have two houses ,own my own business and drive a very nice car , looks like i am doing better than you and this twat told me i would nothing in life apart from low life in school .Looks like i had the last laugh , W******

I remember my old man getting a Russell bitch of a old dear she'd been killing neighbours cats the final straw was she got in a garden and killed some chickens and his pet rabbits so he got him for my brother for rabbiting first day out of we go she took to it like a duck to water second day she fly's to ground afox bolted straight away but patch is still below so being the youngest I'm sent home with a few threats to be quick for a spade as I got back they managed to get her and a dead fox we weren't allowed to take her out after she became one of my old mans digging dogs always sat in the f

Always sad to lose a dog unexpectedly.

You seem like a pound shop version of dogfox scatlad.

Oddly enough something I have personal experience of. its nothing new, schools were doing this 30 years ago. i remember me and my pals all tramping up to the barber on the last day of the summer holidays and getting tram lines and all sorts shaved into our Barnet. Hey pesto, first day back, suspended and another 4 weeks off !! I was expelled at 14 and left school for good, so my “free as a bird” attitude didn’t exactly add to my education ! Lol Fast forward 30 years and I actually think it’s a good thing that schools make rules about dress, hair etc........ Its t

To he guy who started this topic, sorry for your loss. To the bloke who supposedly torched someone's car and beat them up.....LOL! Running a dog over is upsetting but an accident and is not illegal. Assault and arson are. Admitting to both on a public forum either means you are lying or soft in the head and desperately want to be arrested. Give your head a wobble mate.

Not very good ones need more practice different ball game photographing the dogs coursing rats on the lamp so here’s the few pics I took app oligopolies for the poor quality

Yep mate had them in the 80s look the same boss dogs
