  1. I think it all depends on your definition of average. One mans shit hot maybe another mans shit if you know what I mean? As for tailoring your hunting, that's up to you but if it gives you more enjoyment from the dog why not? An example; I bought a terrier specifically for bushing rabbits to the lurchers. He does that ok (could call it average) but his hearts not in it, he likes and is very good at ratting and other things. Once I realised this I made the most of it, we still bush rabbits regularly but you can see him up his game when the right circumstances come along so I make it
  2. IMO dogs are what you make of them. I've never got rid of a dog and I'm not interested in them being world beaters as long as they are doing their best. I have tried to be very flexible and patient, even if sometimes I find myself questioning my sanity. If the dog excels at one task but not at others I will tailor my hunting to suit but will keep trying to encourage the dog in the direction I initially wanted it to go. This probably means I will never have a world beating dog but I don't care. I get massive satisfaction when it all comes together, assuming it ever does, especially when its
  3. Lol @ Joe777, I had forgotten about that but I was there when he said he'd send you one. I will chase Kranky up, sure he will sort you one out as promised. Any preferences?
  4. I need a fair bit of advance notice so I can get away, busy, busy this time of year!
  5. Some time in August suit you?
  6. Nice one DnN, looks like a likely bunch! Is there any news on the pre trip meet at yours Jai?
  7. Count me in, might try and get some more fishing in with you and your dad at the same time if you're up for that Jai?
  8. Just idiots, ignore them you can't do anything else about them more's the pity
  9. keepdiggin - I don't think so, hope not anyway, this has been a long time in the planning and thanks to d'n'n looks like its finally going to happen!
  10. I thought we were aiming at late Nov / early Dec? I might struggle with early Nov, the later in the year the better for me if possible
  11. Been offline for a bit, the catty arrived and its a beaut! Thank you Longers! Its so nice in fact that I am going to put it to good use and put it into dymented's auction so anyone who liked the look of it can now buy it and donate to a good cause at the same time!
  12. Not been on for a while, but was out bushing earlier and shot a feral out of the railway bridge, dropped in the river and retrieved by the terrier. Like a tit I forgot to take a pic so you'll just have to take my word for it
  13. I have but it still does the same, just needs a cover over the screen like a phone but no one seems to sell them. Maybe a Blue Peter moment coming up!
  14. That's all well and good if you have an astro but mine are alphas.
  15. Does anyone use a case for their receiver? The touch screen drives me nuts if I put it in my pocket, does all sorts of stuff left to its own devices!
  16. I did the same with an identical horn thumb stick, pretty sure it is horn it looks identical to mine and mine was, but couldn't get on with it for some reason. I think it was too thick around the base of the forks and just didn't feel right to me.
  17. I have a lot of 25mm WBP ply offcuts, same as Marine pretty much, happy to share if you sort out the postage?
  18. I'm chuffed to bits, thanks Longers I'll put some pics up as soon as it arrives and make a conscious effort to get out and shoot something with it. It'll be the first catty I've used that I haven't made myself! Thanks again!
  19. If you stick a 3 or 4 kilos of sausage in the freezer I will have them next time i'm up.
  20. Not sure what the title was but it was a good video
  21. No, don't think so. He was stood by a caravan on a drive shooting into a garage
  22. Sorry scheme sport, thought you were one and the same Bazil Brush - agreed, I have no doubt everyone misses sometimes, I was only joking about the 100% bit. I was, however, seriously impressed with the video shooting targets in the garage, that was some consistent shooting. Seen plenty of kill shot videos but it doesn't show how many were missed to get that one vid. That's why the target shooting one got me interested and inspired this post gafer - that's good, so I'm still the worst so far lol
