  1. There’s a Facebook group. But I’ve got my own hob, as in the past my Jill’s have needed to see a Hob 2 or 3 times throughout the summer.
  2. I agree with the comment about shooters wiping stuff out with the thermal. Foxes are so thin on the ground where I live as nearly every fox that gets seen, gets shot. No squeeking in lamp shy foxes anymore..
  3. Just to add, both daytime and night time.
  4. Absolute game changer for me.. the amount of extra game that you see is double… stuff sat in hedges or dykes or on the edge of woods… plus your not making them as lamp shy.
  5. Here’s a question for the lads who poach on here… has anyone actually drove a car through a fence or set fire to a barn or tractor… I personally haven’t and I don’t know anyone who has.. yet you hear these stories all the time… so come on, own up, who actually been man enough to set fire to a farmer’s property??
  6. Well my flame hasn’t died yet. . I still love getting out at weekends and lamping in the week.. plus the odd early morning before work hunt. And long may it continue.
  7. You definitely get to see some stunning places while hunting
  8. I think the key is trying to spread the dogs out, age wise.. it’s so temping to get a pup, then when it’s 18 months old or 2 years old, you go out and get another pup… they can be a great team for a few years.. but when they retire, from about 8 or 9 years onwards (depending on the type of hunting you do) you can end up with 2 old retired dogs that can live for another 6 or 7 years.
  9. Great write up and pictures… that’s probably about as extreme hunting as you could get I guess.
  10. That’s the sort of strong looking stud dog I’d like in a couple of years.
  11. That dog looks a nice strong dog. Is he a rabbit only dog, or does he hunt other stuff as well.
  12. I’ll be honest, I’ve never seen one with any symptoms like this, thank god.. I’ve seen a lot of hares too as I live in prime hare country… hopefully it must be very rare.
  13. It’s not mine, it’s a friends… but it’s a brilliant dog.. hunts up and finds signal handed.. ferrets, lamps, the lot.. it’s a beddy/grey x bull/grey.
  14. Beddy/whippet/grey and the other is beddy/bull/grey.
  15. This was an injured fox which was shot, but still managed to cover a fair distance.. tracked and found by these 2 so it could be dispatched.
  16. These were shot.. then this beddy Lurcher was used to track them.. great nose on them.
  17. This old pic of a beddy/cross killed her first hare at 6 months old. Killed plenty after that too.
  18. They sound perfect for hunting up on the fells. They should be hardy enough to stand the weather, and would hopefully search for scent until it finds some, and not get bored like some dogs can.
  19. It’s definitely been a good year for hares. There’s lots around that’s for sure.
  20. I’ve noticed it a lot. Especially when lamping.. if the field has hares in, then there probably won’t be any rabbits.
