    Best year was 2003 with 273 foxes shot off 700 acres ,a free range chicken farm .The year before we did 97 and the year after we shot 123 all off the same farm .The big numbers happened when we got used to the place fully and includes what was bushed and dug .The area has never recovered and i now shoot maybe 10 a year .Nowadays i only shoot them when required .Im on 19 for this year with no expectations of a record year .

    Why differenciate between a bayer and a stayer. They are one and the same in most lads kennels or they go .BUT,a bayer is nothing without a desire to keep the quarry still til dug to and this requires a bit of stubborn hardness.In my experience ,a pure bayer is slightly afraid of its quarry and is often pushed back by aggressive lunges,sometimes walked over and very ofen results in another hole dug. The ideal terrier for me is one that is not afraid to tackle,hold and will stand its ground when faced with the worst scenario.The reason terrier bitches are put to hard dogs is to impart some of

    Some lads in this thread talk of using the dry cow tubes for puncture wounds every dig and the next sentence talk about the overuse of antibiotics .Well heres breaking news lads ,the dry cow tubes are pure pennicilin .Pennicilin is one of the stronger antibiotics that need careful use so please dont overdo them .Something else too -skin that is barely attached ie chin ,is better off removed as it will not take again and only causes wounds to puss up .Scissor off back to the new and plaster with suda cream daily .

    Every dig and end result is different so you have to judge things for yourself on the spot .First thing anyone should do is check the little warrior over and not just the face .A dog that is dug to regular will be immume to fox bites of the puncture variety.Slashes are a different thing though and should be priority clean up.Dirt in the eyes looks bad but is not a priority and can be dealt with when the dog is home .Wasing the dog down with cold water on a cold day can be detrimental and may trigger shock .Far better to clean properly at home with warm water and if the dog is that bad then ho

    Why the need for so many terriers !

    So glad ive got mates ,mates with land that is and a variety of species on them .Take it for granted not paying i suppose but then again ,half the fun is in returning the favour free of charge .So long as people want variety and the demand is there then prices will only go up mate .Try swapping what you have access to for what you want access to, on here .Not everyone has roe mind and may jump at the chance of one or two .

    Yesterday saw us on our first propper digging outing of the year ,it being the first available day after the shooting season . Most of you will be thinking about rapping it up now on charlie but im afraid this is pest control pure and simple .With that squarely in mind you can read on as this is not about future sport .We started at 10 am and tried 17 places without so much as a tug on the lead .We parked up near to a hanging with 3 good places at approx' 2pm and used my bitch to try for a mark . The first two were rabbity so the last one really was last knockings . A strong mark got us excit

    If i were you mate ,i would word it slightly different to the affect that you are prepared to do all the leg work ie carrying and learn a bit in the process .You would be welcome to a carcass from me free of charge if you wanted to make the journey to Wiltshire one day .YIS FD

    So if and when this becomes law ,will there be one test across the whole spectrum and will the price be capped? .Those that took the previous courses may get some reprieve or be sick as parrots !.

    I can remember taking 3 very big 'Silverfish' on an early morning stalk......ah,them were the days! Martin Nice shot mate ,what calibre? .Behind the skirting or under?
  23. Squirrel_Basher
    Propper job you two.Looks a cracking piece of ground mate .Hopefully the rumours are true as well .
  24. Squirrel_Basher
    Not sure as i had to leave before the total shot were gathered in .

    For me it goes as follows .Ive been stalking for a couple of decades without the need for any paperwork ,without the need to part with money for my sport ,without the need to provide an id number to a gamedealer and certainly without the holier than thow attitude of SOME of these test achievers .I am /have been a mentor to 5 firearms applicators all of which were accepted on my say so .I am the stalker on 2 firearms tickets provisionally until i say so ,until i am happy with their progress to stalk alone.This was asked of me by our police division through others and not once have i been asked
