Back in the 80s I would have sold that lot by lunch, do zoo,s and wildlife parks not still buy them ? can remember my escort mk2 ex AA van driving home many a night full up to the roof with anything from deer to trout never took long to sell any of it, trout used to bump out at a £1 each round the pubs and on a few occasions have had to give plod a bit of game when pulled over, more likely to have farmers or keepers smashing up your motor than get nicked back then, I also used to go on the train with my dogs and my catch,s this is me walking out with my pack probably 40ish years ago a £25 fox

You gwp x bitch has hit the ground running this season could see a difference in her through the summer , her day time hunting had been nothing short of spot on and lamping she had a stormer this weekend , it’s been a real eye opener and pushing me to go down the route again as il be sourcing a pup next summer to replace the old bitch ! few shot of her this season so far

I jumped out of bed at 3am to get ready to go explore a swamp I'm only allowed to hunt in Sept.Because of this there is a bunch of yearling coons there.Perfect for a pup to start the season.I released my older crossbred bitch an hour before daylight.She entered an immediately I smelled a skunk.In Dixie we call them polecats.Skunk spray will kill a terrier unless you can get oxygen to them.I got her out quickly but I became covered in the spray.Imagine pepper spray and sewage.Its so strong you can taste it. After a short break I released the young male posted above.He is so small I have be

These two for this season, need some refreshing on the lamp but fingers crossed they get plenty of opportunity

Oh yes,..I forgot to say,...I have a book for you Neal, I feel your continued support for the breed, deserves a small reward....? I'll drop it in when I am next round your way... All the best, Phil.?

Out last night for a look on part of the chicken farm I rarely go as it’s near houses .Farmer had spoke to a few of the houses directly backing onto these fields and been met with happy faces he says as they keep a few fowl themselves .Bit of a breeze so on with the thermal and wow ,three mooching about same field and all upwind away from the houses ..Shot the first then used the thermal to see if next shot was on and it was .Shot the third in this manner too .All vixens .Had a squeak at this point and a larger dog fox came into the field scenting the exact trail the last vixen had taken .He

Going buy an old 22 to do up he said! Only going buy 200 rounds he said! 600 rounds later, A-tec wave mod and a new cz 457 my wallet goes into meltdown!! What a nice little rifle though. Trigger is adjustable for weight, overtravel and sear engagement. 60°bolt. Whacking good pin strike and very accurate. Shoots CCI, Federal, Eley and Winchester to similar zero. HV ammunition just shoots a little higher. A well made solid rifle, just what one can expect from CZ. The pigeon were taken with shorts by S&B. The squirrel by the way was carrying an airgun

Mother and son Wheaton x

I'm having a really good day today; think I've only had 10 of them moments today!! I'm always mouth before brain, usually results in tears! Sometimes a black eye!!!

Never read so much crap in my life,my beddy x has probably put more gear to bed on shoot days than most have had lamping all season ?? my dog lamps 5 nights a week on 2 estates with the keepers,ferret and help on a dig,yes he’s gundog trained but only because people said it couldn’t be done and can be called off deer but will get on when required. here he is in a class of labs as a pup.

Bit of a change in the temperature this morning, the birds were waiting for their grub in the dark ? . Driving back to the yard over the causeway was like being in a sauna, the mist/steam coming off the reservoirs was a reminder of how warm it’s been and how cold it got overnight. Autumn is on its way !!!

recon this is ginger beard ...

I’m an absolute machine

11 month old now showing plenty of interest follows a scent well caught a few pheasants by accident he’s got the jagd high pitched voice when he’s behind something though but he’s quite sensible and I’m happy with him

yet more fuel for the fire mum my told me about her brother who lives up the hill from cheltenham and he had some mates over from south africa and they said how many big cats do you have?.he replied none when they said they could smell them.you would think a couple of blokes who know what they are talking about could tell the difference from a moggy and a big cat.

My tub is attached to me all the time....on my waist and it is real, not plastic so there!

Brilliant night, now what you need is a large black plastic box to put them in, funnily enough we have been talking about such a box................................I'll get me coat ? Phil

13 gen deer x grey. 5 1/2 month. 24tts

Shock ! Horror !.......Africans in Africa are f***ing every young girl they can lay hands too regardless of age and wether they want too or not !! What a surprise........for the Telegraph ! Every other c**t in the world knew this years ago !

I'll never forget the way randleman slammed him only for him to beat him a short time later! Tough as boots loved MMA years ago don't really bother now. Big nog v sapp was another cracker. Randy couture and roided Belfort were favourites of mine back in the day aswell. But damn that randleman suplex!!

This the same swamp.Us rednecks renamed it Katchums 2 bollocks. Has a nice native American Indian ring to it ? All jokes aside it's a scary dark place digging alone.I installed a tracker on my cell phone so hopefully my wife can find me when something happens.I dont enjoy it matter of fact it scares the shit out of me but the terriers need digging.If I had good normal digging I would never step foot in those pits of hell ever again.

It’s not just dogs and rabbits mate it’s life in 2020 there are adverts running on the radio encouraging people to grass up there neighbours if they have more than 6 people in, we are being turned into a self policing grass thy neighbour society, people would rather film there neighbours in difficulty than go out and help, i,m just an innocent old man that wanders around the countryside putting up cameras, 95% of people I meet welcome me on there land, even though I have a lurcher and terrier in tow and a catty and BBS in my pocket, I now park on peoples driveways and farmyards instead of in p

No good mate. Too tall, can't turn, no guts, no drive, too slow to mature .....

Listening to some Dylan on the drive home last night, brilliant song about the boxer Rubin Carter who was wrongly convicted of murder. You may have seen the film with Denzel Washington. ?

If I had to choose my favourite time of year I don’t think I could , all the seasons have their charm . But if I had to it would be a frosty winters morning . I think it takes me back to the excitement I felt when I was a kid , ferreting , seeing my breath , hearing the thumping underground and waiting for a bolt . Magical!!!

I think me and tub will go for a walk in the moonlight, I’ve grown strangely fond of old tub lately. ?

Never the dogs fault. I've kept Bull's half my life. Back in the day, I'd walk one of mine down the road like I was Tom Cruise, in Top Gun. Absolutely focused on every single aspect of what surrounded me. " Corner coming up on the right. Pass well to the left, in case someone comes round it with a dog. " " Pavement getting crowded, ahead. Check for people moving away from possible, incoming dog. Check behind; Anyone with a dog catching up? Cross the fukking road! " Never had a mishap. Simple responsibility for what I had there. 'Five year old Tenisha was shot dead by her si

"belief "....simple....a person who is convinced of something without proof has belief rather than factual evidence......you have no factual evidence that God doesnt exist but you " believe " he doesnt anyway......no different to Greyman.....infact he probably has more evidence of his " belief " than you have of yours ! Ultimately people " believe " whatever they want... you are no different to anyone else mate.

Out of curiosity, who decided?

I believe the original Kelpie may well have had, Dingo blood in its makeup ?

My collie, bull, grayhound Going on 4 in September

My favourite time of year, I love a cool misty morning and a chilly evening when it gets dark by 8 o’clock ?

Yep... it’s definitely changing, was 29o Monday night in York and 5o yesterday morning, had to open the windows this morning cos of the condensation couldn't feel me fingers last week when out early on the geese

That's because nobody can understand them, why aye man haway fog on the tyne like when the boat comes in!!! ??

Some of you folk just don't understand a thing about firearms at all do you! It is NOT just metal fatigue. If old cartridges have been used there could of been a delayed burn. Or partial burn or sometimes what is called a flame out. The components of the cartridge get forced into the barrel then stop or very nearly stop. The components become in themselves an obstruction all in a nano second. Combustion starts again and a huge pressure is developed causing a failure. The ensuing failure of a component of the gun can not be predicted. In this case it was the lug. It is also possi

A plastic tub to you is an alter for others.... Next question to the OP, what are you do this weekend? I'm polishing my tub!

Sons young wheaton cross bitch .doing well so far..

Make sure you top the water right up before you weigh them in.

Nice old-style running dog Alex?.... I've had several Deerhound based lurchers over the years,...great fun, loved them all..?

But I haven't got any friends ?

My Foxpro has it's own bag to carry it in which I also use to place the caller on top to keep off the ground. It has pockets to keep spare batteries in etc and I always keep a carrier bag in there too in case it starts to rain , place the caller inside the carrier bag and carry on.

Not been on here much lately nor been getting out due to a few things, but took the old dog out and a Young, bitch, over the moon!
