Couple from the weekend. Hounds cold marked a hole with three in it, then hunted another to ground.

The time has come for me to hang up my beaters horn , and retire from keepering. I spoke to the boss a few weeks ago and told him I’m making this my last season . We are parting on good terms and we haven’t fallen out , and I’m not going to another shoot , it’s just time to try something different. I’ve been here nearly 15 years, and I’m not getting any younger, I find that I’m just less enthusiastic about bagging wheat and dragging myself out of bed. Also I find being an “angry farmer”, constantly bollocking stupid dog walkers tiresome. Instead I’m planning a move to

My lads dog, 18 months old, not done anything yet, been saving him.

All done, happy with them. ?

Love a bonsai

Can't catch bloody cod so dog fish it is

Couple of pics from a few weeks back. Overlooking Sherwood forest.. I almost didn't bother going on the ride but glad i did in the end. I bumped into this young girl right off the beaten track in the middle of that forest. She'd hit a rock and flipped the quad onto it's side and it was too heavy for her to flip it over bless ber. When i bumped into her she was walking along a trail and the quad was nowhere to be seen, she must of been heading home on foot. She'd got a full face helmet on with the reflective goggles on and she was crying behind there when i spoke to her. She'd

Boris arrived in style

Dear Mr. Robson, I do not actually have to do anything. Not having a TV licence is not an offence. If you have any evidence that I am viewing, recording or downloading from the BBC then I suggest that you present this evidence to a Magistrate and obtain a warrant to search my property. If you do not have a warrant then do not bother to call as I find that your manner is threatening and this causes me distress. If you continue this manner of harassment then I will make a report to the police under the Protection From Harassment legislation. Yours, etc........

The lynx reintroduction has been ongoing for the last 5 years or more so try to keep up, with regard to the rest of your pathetic statements for me and mine things are moving along just fine as with everything else the virus has been a bit of a pain but other than that it’s all moving along fine, for a man like yourself that sees life through Wikipedia it’s no surprise you struggle to grasp it but for me and many other outdoorsmen it’s an ongoing situation, if you actually took the time to listen to the podcasts all your silly little points are covered over and over, including road accidents,

Hahaha it's bloody handbags at dawn. Cheers for all the advice lads. Just to clear up, I will mostly be taking him lamping, but was under the impression it's good to get a daytime rabbit first. Seems it's not necessary, so looks like I'll be taking him lamping one night this week to see if we can get one or two for pot... and they won't be getting dropped by me ?

These are from a privatel collection of mine - ahh that holiday in Rhyl, magical times! ?

For Christmas I’d like a day without …. a ) getting slapped awake by my 4 year old boy and as soon as I open my eyes being asked if I “want a fight like? “ b) not get my eyes pulled out at every advert break for LOL “merch” / make up / other assorted nonsense that wont get opened until March . c) be able to walk into a shop and not come out weighed down with leopard print jackets , f***ing SHOES , next ornaments or wall prints in hues of pastels that give me a headache . The fact it will all be half price in new year really adds to my calm acquiesce in such matters not a

Anyone else like Bonsai? I do. But, that aside; Just take a look at the jugs on this bitch!!! Yeah. No. Now that I've got her chest off mine ..... I like bonsai trees. Brilliant little things. Something so quintessentially Japanese about them. I mean; " I know; I'll grow an oak tree, in a casserole dish, for the next fifty years. But, I'll only let it get a foot tall. " Only an oriental mind could come up with that shit! Just look at This fukking thing! That is absolutely fukking Fantastic!

I don't trust Europe ,America or Asia with them ,so Africa would be no different ,..apart from Zimbabwe I would trust them .

We had Kate Garraway on the shoot over the summer. The estate was approached and the production team turned up and spent time researching the area . They asked for local characters and interesting people, needless to say the Gamekeeper didn’t fit into their narrative. Anyway, in spite of me not having a TV license ( I detest everything the BBC stand for ) I watched it . It showed the shoot , she even had her picnic next to one of the cover crops . I am even on it , blink and you will miss my ATV driving past the church (drone footage ) . Talking of drones , they got it stuck in

Hi all , I thought I’d better check in otherwise you might think I’ve passed on to the celestial pheasant shoot in the sky . Good to see you are all still posting, when I get a minute I will catch up and read through and see what you have all been up to . For my part it’s a hectic time of year , I’m up first thing feeding, then off loading, I don’t seem to have a minute to myself, but it’s my own fault for saying yes to the days , it’s greed basically. The shoot is going well and we have had four good days so far , and the guns seem happy……well most of them, ther

Trapping an releasing is baiting ya fool so there for it’s a wanker move ?completely different using a dog to pin a bolted rabbit that’s just bolted in to a net…..or just remove the net ?? im no rocket scientist but he’s wanting to lamp hence why he’s just bought a lamp ?so makes no difference what so ever what day time rabbits are doing if he’s expecting to run them under the cover of darkness my suggestion would be run them under the cover of darkness don’t be being a wanker dropping shit for dogs the human an dog will soon Lean how to operate the lamp an how the game works

Thankyou everyone..it's touched me reading all your posts she was my absolute world for 15 whole year's..through thick & thin it was just her & I & a few lurchers,she brought plenty of dog's on here,kept every single one of them in check..she really was top dog here ??..I'm so grateful to you all,thankyou so much ?

They are too stupid to move closer to the well so have to send their kids on a 30 mile round trip to fetch a bucket of water. I've seen it on TV. So I wouldn't trust them with a windmill let alone a nuclear reactor.

Cornwall really God forsaken place wet , windy and full of northerners ?

Learning something new is something I like . I’ve never taken a boat out on my own . I’ve been on fishing charters before , but boat ownership and the sea / tides are new to me . Keep your eyes on the news “ idiot on boat , lost at sea” , I might if I’m lucky end up on one of the TV shows being rescued by the RNLI , if they’re not too busy ferrying refugees(? economic migrants) from France.

Haha the fire brigade should try that with stuck cats!

Clearer pic

I don’t know why the keeper never fits the narrative, I know they are a rum bunch, bad tempered, often use very colourful language and call a spade a spade but one thing is certain, they are the definition of a character ?

The irony! Handling the wheat twice and lugging a beast out! Good for you buddy.

Hardly a mid life crisis. I’m not getting a Harley or a sports car or getting my ear pierced or getting a younger Mrs . I’m keeping my old Hilux, I’m keeping my ageing and slightly decrepit wife , no piercings either. But I am looking at a second hand Wilson flyer if that counts? ?

The mind boggles what your browser history must be like ?

I bet she is ???

The best thing about moving 500 miles away from your relatives is that I now don’t have to endure the hideously strained Christmas dinners and sack loads of shit for the kids that will help them to quickly appreciate absolutely f**k all in life ! No “let’s pretend we are a family” get togethers to make out that all the time you can’t spare 5 minutes in your week all the rest of the year is really just down to circumstances and “not having time” I not longer have to fight the urge like some sort of Jakyl & Hyde inner battle to not just stand up and ruin proceedings because I’

these are my two if the pic loads..

I always start a pup off with some ferretting into nets, with another seasoned dog...teach them some manners and to steady them up,can't stand a dog that can't sit still ...when the dog knows what a rabbit is,I take them out and look for a squatter or 2...slow and steady wins the race?

First rabbit is the important one, take your time, pick a windy night with a bit of rain to help muffle the sound of YOUR foot placements, use the wind to your advantage, by that I mean approach your intended target with the wind in your face, stick to the edge of the field you intend to lamp, a quick flick out with the beam will let you know if rabbits are about or if you can use a thermal imager or night vision even better, try to get as close to the rabbit as possible before releasing your dog, lampings about pot filling not massively long runs, the dog may not see its first rabbit till it

Dropping rabbits for dogs is a wanker move that’s what clueless wankers do??but you can see why the running dog games nearly f****d with advice like that given out

Mate, you gave her a life that she would of never had in someone else's hands. Lived it to the full. You gave her the chance to express herself.. and be the dog she was inside. How many of these types of dog never even get let off a lead in their whole lives due to blinded/ mislead owners.... ahhh.. it's a small dog, so a piss on garden is enough for it. It's a crime to me that.. my respect mate..

I picked up my first lurcher last year, he's a good lad, very intelligent and responsive. His recall is good, he will retrieve a rabbit dummy back to hand over a farm gate. He has good prey drive for Rabbits and squirrels as has tried to chase a few when he's been off lead. He's a year old now and I want to get him on the rabbits. I've bought a decent lamp but I've read it's best for him to catch a couple of day time sitters before taking him lamping. I've never coursed before and don't know anyone who does it either. What's the best way to get him a day time catch? I've g

New video of PUNCH lamping rabbits using the nightsaber alpha v2 lamp.

Says the bloke using the phrase "cutting about"

Op " not coming on here again there all idiots"?

It always amazes me. All of the dark and horrible stuff happening in the world, all of the ways our planet and society are falling apart ........ and folk are passionately worried about people chasing a fox about with some dogs. A sense of perspective is what some folk sorely lack.

In Wales saw some hawthorn with more berries than I've seen before...

Some good Holly about bet it don't last til Christmas. Cheers Arry
