  1. It was barren dickhead ,otherwise i would of said so in the post .Watch and learn sunshine ,watch and learn .
  2. I went to see the kill with Martin but he was physically shaking and wanted to hold my hand so we came away smartish .The ground is unfortunately very dry so no prints .My money would be on a natural death from gangrene from that black back leg or secondary infection at least and the carcass has been eaten by foxes ,badgers .The amount of cleared ground says to me the beast thrashed about a bit before dying but then again ,who wouldnt .The bones chewed on the ends is classic fox and the pulling about about in the last pics are also classic fox behaviour .
  3. Went down to Martins for a shine and took the .222.We tried several places without success and the lamp was dying fast as we walked the lambing fields of some of Martins ground .We had done a couple of fields without seeing much when Martin picked out charlie in the fading beam .It was very obvious that this fox was staring at a pair of newborn lambs with thier mum but it was distracted by Martins excellent low pitch call .It was skylined at first but came in to about 30 yards for me to despatch it neatly with a good background of grass .A small vixen ,old but in good nick with a very dense co
  4. What you want to do mate is use a red filter and get closer .lol. Can happen with the best placed shots though .A tumble inside can do a hell of a lot of damage .
  5. Not park deer but reveered none the same .Fed in winter and afforded sanctuary at certain times of the year ,this month not being one of them .
  6. To make a sweeping statement about anything shows the failing in a man .The terrier world is full of that type .Met enough to know to avoid some people like the plague .Gets on your tits to be honest . Talk never dug nothing but quiet understanding says it all without having to ,in my book .Give me quiet understanding any day .
  7. Put some pics up of your dogs mate .Talk is cheap .
  8. Sorry mate dont know you, but good luck and good hunting .
  9. Excellent mate .Well done on your achievement
  10. A young nuttal bitch after a dig . An old nuttal bitch after dig . A 4 year old nuttal dog after a dig .
  11. Did you mark that fox as FD or FH or just plain old martin Nice pics mate as always .
  12. priceless martin priceless well done on getting the right fox fd. your enjoying that 222 just now. atb alan. Shes sweet mate .Hows the .223 ?
  13. Is the gland [teat area ]red,swollen and hot and is she lethargic ,no energy.If you spray a bit of milk on a white hanky you will see dark yellow bits and maybe a bit of blood .She may have mastitis already .Drying her off will help but the mastitis will need antibiotics if she is to be free from future problems .Vets really i think . PS hard to diagnose a problem purely from a discription .
  14. Took a few snaps of the fallow numbers in our area .Due for another cull end of month.
  15. Its a good job theres people here at the THL ,like old trap collector and many more that know their stuff inside out . Listen to them and get the right kit first time
  16. so your saying unless mink hounds are less than a few minutes behind a mink they wont speak on it ?? or have i read yor post wrong You crafty bugger alimac .lol. What im saying is that hounds will only swim mid stream for a few minutes before loosing the drift on water, then check bankside .They can own a scent bankside up to 2 days old and speak but the trick is knowing which way the buggers going /has been and will they catch up in daylight .Some seasoned hounds have different voices for old /new scent which makes for easier hunting or did pre ban . Ps. I was whip to a bobbery pa
  17. What a shame to see that many deer in a pile from what was obviously a grand day out .Respect costs nothing but is the mark of a sportsmen .I undestand the hurry to get them to a dealer but piling them up does nothing for the quality of meat .Not a dig mate but just a point of view.
  18. Too old for all the shit that goes with it mate .lol.
  19. Back to the chicken farm again ,this time its personal .The cheeky fox that has been seen carrying chickens struck again today at 1730 and i have been over there since that time just sitting and watching .Darkness came and i put the lamp on the .222 along with the ambre filter .Moved position so i could scan more ground from another position but with a lesser background .Didnt take long before i picked out the eyes of charlie and coming in towards me in fact ,between two chicken sheds and on the inside of the electric fence too .How cheeky ! .This fox wasnt behaving like any other id seen beca

  21. Why not change the paperwork and dig a flightpond mate .
