  1. So I’ve been and checked the camera and no fox yet, there was a fresh ? on the track in the front field, the camera is working and caught a few rabbits, we have gone for tuna today so we’ll see how that goes, it will be Friday before I can get up there to check it, fingers crossed ?
  2. I normally use rabbits pegged down, but it’s just what’s in the house at the minute as I’ve not had the time to get out for a few hoppers
  3. Them dirty dogs only have one thing on there mind this time of year, foxy love is in the air
  4. Nice work, curiosity is the down fall of many a ginger terrorist, we were out on the sheep farm last night, only see the one but we were up wind of it and as soon as it winded longshanx’s aftershave it was off like a rocket ?
  5. I’ve just had a look at them, I didn’t know you could get them that did that, just goes to show how far behind the times I am
  6. I’ll give it a go, the bloody thing better turn up now I’ve gone to the trouble of feeding it ?
  7. He’s a little cracker, I know nowt about dogs but welcome mate, I’m sure someone on here will tell you all you need to know ?
  8. They are spot on, I have it on 20 second video and in night vision it’s as clear as day, this is the second one of these I’ve had but I paid a lot more than 23 quid for the first one
  9. I’ll have to give them a try, if the missus finds out I’ve been nicking the cats food she will string me up ?
  10. So I have some fields that I mainly shoot rabbits on, on numerous occasions I’ve bumped into a fox on here, ever since they combined it’s been about, it’s a clever old thing always in a position where a shots not possible or it know that I’m there before I know it’s about, so I thought I’d set up my evil bay 23 quid camera with a bit of the moggy’s food in the bottom field 75 ish yards away from my pigeon hide, I’ll bait it over the next few days and see if I can tempt it into the crosshairs ?
  11. With one more day to go it was my turn to feed up today, I walked 5 of the drives with 3 of them still holding a few birds, with it been this late in the season I wasn’t expecting to see much at all but was pleasantly surprised, I can’t remember a time when we have held onto the birds this late, it would seem that all the extra work we have put in this year has paid off, it was like a spring day up there today with the cock birds out in the fields puffing there chests out and laying claim to there patch
  12. Yeah, not everyday someone brings a Doberman as a beating dog ?
  13. Second to last day on the shoot and another cracker, 46 pheasant and 1 woodcock, everyone got a bit of shooting and one of our youngest guns ( 10 years old ) got his first bird with his 410, well done jake, we are now over half the birds we put down and there’s still a few about for one last day, the morning was lovely and clear but by the afternoon the cloud came in and we got a bit wet but the birds were still flying so we carried on, we had my little beater Hugo with us today he had a cracking day picking up, bird in hand and a smile on his face, he’s the big 4 tomorrow so I’ll be round to
  14. I looked at that earlier, but it’s the wrong way for, I wouldn’t be surprised if that does £400, happy bidding ?
  15. I think it was just playing dead, waiting for you to bugger off and made a run for it ?
  16. That’s a lovely looking little fella ?
  17. I’d take a cold dark winter night over a summer’s night anytime, them days are for pigeons and sitting by the water drinking cold beers ??
  18. I love it, foxing in the cold frosty air but it’s always nice to get back in the motor and put the fire on ?
  19. They are definitely worth a go, I’ve got one on one of the mouse guns, I’ve noticed that sometimes I find myself looking for the reticle on my other rifles for a few seconds until everything comes into focus but with the illuminated scope it’s there as soon as I put my eye to it as long as it’s on the lowest setting, otherwise there’s to much light on the glass and it looks a bit foggy ?
  20. Take it steady fella, as long as you take it easy a walk out in the crisp air will do you the world of good, have you tried an illuminated reticle for your night shooting
  21. I’m in Stockton on Tees, I don’t think he’s far from me
  22. I’ve been looking at a few reviews of it and I haven’t found any that say they don’t like it ( yet ) I think what I need now is to find someone who has them in stock and is willing to let me fit it to my .243 to see how it sits on the rifle and to find out if it’s as idiot proof as it looks because if it isn’t Forrest Gump simple it isn’t for me ?
  23. It’s all in the eyes, be afraid, be very afraid ?
  24. Maybe the ran out of cartridges and started using spears ?
  25. On the .243 a vortex viper 6 -24x50 and on the .17hmr MTC 4-16x50
