First job then is to get the fecker rewired. Had no end of bother til got mine sorted. The Blazer is miles better than the Striker in most respects, except for the length of beam. PS If you really want to be more fecked off, try getting a filter for the Striker and see how much of a faff that is! Cheers, D.

Back in the early 's we had several 3/3 and 5/5 with our dogs, single handed at Harmston near Lincoln. Ex wifes uncle had a bungalow there and worked in Saudi, so we had loads of spells ther while we were "house sitting". LOL. Thought we had good dogs but the fact is they used to shoot over 100 a day and we were sickened to see the game cart come through the village with maybe 100 or more on the trailer. Depends where you are but when there are as many hares as rabbits around, even a mediocre dog will catch them if they are green. Any dog that can do 5/5 nowadays daytime has got to be h

Does any body own or remember G kelly beddy whippets?
dytkos replied to Penda's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Don't know about the whippet crosses but Gary Kelly was the slipper at Waterloo Cup and many major events. He was from Brownhills though. Cheers, D. -
I'm fairly certain that I saw a thread a few weeks back on here that said that muntys were not on the "list" and that they were vermin and could be shot all year round, and with a shotgun. Cheers, D.

If that dog did that, fair play but for every one like that theres'1000's of "point and shoot" or "get smashed up every time" dogs. Like I said, one trick ponies. Best regards to the very, very few who have the real deal. I certainly haven't and never had have. Cheers, D.

Thats like saying an axe is just the same as a scalpel in the right hands. Total Shite. T-Bar is an instrument, big bar is a tool. Horses for courses. ATB. D.

nastybillys FURY, the dog took everything and i mean everything the best jack of all trades i have ever seen.nastybilly met a lad on a moor one day.the lad asked where he had covered,wullie (nastybilly)showed the lad so as he would avoid the ground he had trod.they chatted briefly about the game in one anothers bag.wullie being wullie,went back along the route the other lad had came from.wullie only had fury(lurcher x lurcher breeding)he met back up at the end of the day by chance with the same lad.wullie had caught 3 times the amount as the other guy.i have to add ,the guy in question had 2

Understand the reasoning behind your "Jack of all trades" logic. In theory a purpose bred/trained "specialist" dog should be better than a dog that does several jobs (all things being equal) whether it be ferretting, coursing, foxing etc. The converse arguement to this is that a "specialist" type dog is a one- trick pony and a dog that works on various quarry "has several strings to it's bow" I am in no way decrying any specialist dogs, anyone who breeds, trains and works their dogs exclusively to one discipline is a respected specialist also imho, BUT an all rounder (remember the start

Totally different tools mate. T bar, thin, pointy, flexible. Hence the T on the top for turning to "probe". Digging bar, maybe 4-6 ft long, several times thicker, possibly octagonal for strength, pointy ish at one end. Bang it in, twist around, lever, break up shale, etc etc. Difference is like the diffence between an axe and a scalpel if you get my drift. Cheers, D.

No mate, just a bitch. The missus LOL. Cheers, D.

Had mine for over 3 years (it's 5 years old now). Don't really use it proper "off road" that much, just towing quad trailer and the like. Drives very well on the road and not bad off, it's OK, but for proper off road ability I much prefer my Jimny but if you need a bigger vehicle with decent "off road" capabilities, I'd go for a Disco, make sure you get one of the newer ones though 'cos the earlier ones were crap.<BR>Cheers, D.

Said in the paper yesterday they had 53 packs of hounds represented this week at the show. 7 up on the 46 packs last year. Even packs from Ireland were represented. Cheers, D.

A good dog can run anywere, you would know this if you have ever had a good dog. Yes dick head i realize that. My point was - if i was running big open land for various quarry, then my choice of breed as an 'all rounder' would differ to if running a lot of small land or a different environment. I don't think it's possible to say an 'a x b with a small dash of c' is the best all rounder. A persons opinion of what in their eyes makes a good all rounder will differ from person to person, based upon personal experience with certain dogs and where, why and what on they run their dogs. So

more shit A T- bar is not used for digging, just locating the tube(s). They are invaluable for ferretting when you have several ferrets to ground and not all collared up. On bigger quarry, its nice to know what you are gonna be digging through (especially on the moor where there are massive granite boulders below the surface a lot of the time. Sometimes when you get down a few feet there are lots of tubes, (especially in old rabbit places) and it's handy to know which direction they go. Mine cost a fiver from the local blacksmith. It's just a bit of concrete reinforcing rod grou
