  1. Had mine a few seasons now and plenty of use. Done it last week thinking something was something it wasn’t and I’m sure I’ll still be doing it in another 3 seasons. Can’t moan though mines been through the wars. Dropped and not just on grass fields I don’t know how many times came in ditches up to my chest in water a couple of times With me ?. It’s missing a couple of bits like lens cover. Rubber round eye piece all worn and looks like it’s been dragged through a muddy field most of the time but it’s just as good as when I brought it for spotting. If I ever needed another I would deffo try get
  2. I’m sure if you wait till season ends in next couple of months or so there will be a few advertised on here at decent prices. Good dogs will be getting worked now and bred when its all finished. Just hold out and keep asking the question on here and sure something will come up for you. Keep checking the for sale page as things do still come up. Atb Igz
  3. I know exactly what you mean ?. I also think like you say the 38 is probably too much tool for the job as really your only using them as a spotter. Not often you zoom in on stuff but it does help identify better but I just make a balls up instead like you and run sumet that isn’t there or atleast go to ?
  4. Good lamp if you can get your hands on one
  5. Xq38 a good option mate that’s what I use. See field after field. Can’t comment on the 30 as haven’t looked through one but I did look through one what was about a grand before and it wasn’t much cop but depends what you need I suppose. All I’d say is don’t look through a more expensive one if your going to buy cheaper. See if you could get a mooch through one and go from there
  6. Mek sure you not got ya heels ? on
  7. Can’t beat a good football pitch ?. Always plenty crossing
  8. More time on our hands. I’d say it’s just beginning .
  9. I’d be happy to let someone use him on the right bitch. A mate may have a prospect in the next year or so if she keeps doing ok and if he wants to use her then he knows he can even if I didn’t want a pup. He’s seen what he can do and always liked what he seen. Had someone asking about him not long ago but when I started asking a few questions stuff didn’t sound right and not sure bitch was up to much then if I’d have just let him breed and he produced shit I’m not doing right by him. Hopefully hel get something out there or like DC said I can take a few straws. Atb Igz
  10. I’ve thought about it mate ?
  11. He’s 28 1/2 29 mate. Covers the ground really well to be honest and does what needs to be done. Been a great dog for me. I have put an awful lot of hours into this dog though and if I hadn’t he wouldn’t have put half the stuff away. For 3 seasons it was just me and him 4,5 times a week we were out and even on the days we wasn’t out out we’d still go for an hours and a half mooch. So I do believe in you get out of it what you put in.
  12. I’ve no need for a new dog at min so Ill just have to keep my fingers crossed but I know what you mean it would be a shame not to see what he could produce
  13. This fellas gotta have had retrieved close to the hundred mark I’d say. Hard as nails no reverse gear and can put his hand to other stuff just as well. Hopefully get a pup out of him in another couple of seasons when I’m in need of a new dog.
  14. Seems to be getting somewhere now. Took us a month to get him back somewhere near where I want him. Had a good nights lamping last night and seemed to still have plenty left in the tank after a good 4 1/2 hours out.
  15. Lanyard onto the thermal and lamp. Looped over your head then easy to leave the thermal hanging round your neck while you grab the lamp with the hand you was holding the thermal in ?
  16. That’s who I had my dog up to last month when he fell I’ll. knows what he’s talking about
  17. Cheers mate. I love it myself. Been a very on off season this year so far but these are the months it normally seems to get a little more interesting so hopefully it be hassle free now for next few months
  18. First proper night back out tonight after about 4/5 weeks off with illness. Been getting out for hour or two here and there in the day and he seems back to himself hunting as he was. Not expecting too much of him but hel get a couple of decent runs hopefully
