Thanks for the input gents long way off tracker yet but something to look at for the future ? going to work hard with him during the summer early mornings got lots of ground small woods , open mountain , reed bed valleys and i,m only 5 mins from the beacons allways wanted to give hill work a go but want to get the best start i can he,s a soft dog not aggressive with other dogs and still young so time is on my side

Any more advice gents will be great ?

Giving him plenty of hill walks and letting him do his own thing he goes so far then back but not enticing him back but the same advice crops up all the time getting him out with a dog/dogs who now the game going to give it my best shot got plenty of time thanks gents

Looking for some advice on how to bring a lurcher on for hill work i have 10 month old beddy/greyhound i have the time and the ground i don't have a older dog for the pup to learn from and wondering what i can do to better my chance of ending up with a worker and wether the cross i have is the right type for hill work he's 23 ths at the moment he's stock broken i know i have plenty of time and not to enter him to young ? but any advice thanks

See pheasants fed on maize with that type fat on them

Had our last shoot today bagged 9 birds its been a good season for us we only put 300 birds down and we have shot 181,60% return its our first season hope its not beginners luck

No wild stock about never been a shoot in the area our birds were released on 25/6/2016 we are 8 guns and we have put allot of time and effort into the shoot the land owner is a shooting man and is on our side all the way like i said we are on top of the vermin plenty of feeders good water system plenty of cover and we dog the in good keen members who put the time in so we are reaping what we have sown

Nearest shoot is at least 5 miles away and they release 200 more than us

On our little shoot seeing plenty only put 300 down but already shot 33% we have plenty of feeders on top of the vermin we dog in have plenty of cover or maybe we are having beginners luck but at the moment we are still seeing birds coming back and around the pen at night

Can only give it a try some good dogs have come out of accidental mateings once he sees the other dogs working and having fun he might want to join in and if he comes to not work at least your wife has still got her pet but nothing ventured but allot to gain

Had springer x jack a few years ago used here for roughshooting ferreting / marking she was a cracking little dog looked like a small springer would open up when close to any game

yes your right we will be there 7/6/2016 companies name is happy hounds

hi all new to the site love my rough shooting and all things hunting will be great to chat to like minded people thanks
