  1. Nice one lads .Must be good to get a dig on level ground .We tend to find ouirselves on banks where we always run out of back fill.
  2. Nice one lads ,well done and right by a pen too
  3. We were on an estate in Wiltshire on which the keeper has a zero telerance for foxes and today was no exception .We marked one in a bank ,in a two holer that runs deep ,and of course we had to have it out .Little pat bitch was selected as shes not seen any work this week.In she flies and starts baying way back in the bank then the sound fades to nothing .Belman says 3.7 so we wait ,and wait but its no good ,shes there to stay .The going is easy here for the first metre or so then its layers of rock,sand then more rock ,right down to the tube .Started at 2pm and got to her at 5.30 pm.A decent d
  4. My experience of ex layers is that its a very hit and miss affair .They are prone to wandering as they have no local knowledge of where they now find themselves upon release,a fine statement for a bird with a brain the size of a pea i know .You need a large area of well keepered ground to keep them in my opinion.
  5. Might just be the way its phot'd but the fallow neck looks a bit thin .Apologies if i'm way out on this mate ,but................Apart from that critism,the rest seem fine What do you charge for a fox head and neck mate ?
  6. Thats a relief ,I thought it was just me .Every time i start up it stares me in the face
  7. About time you swept the yard mate .lol.They must be content to stay in that flimsey fence!
  8. Good on you mate .That has to be one adrenaline rush .Hope to do the same one day .
  9. Ah, but will that dry up Ian .My dealer pays a pound a pound all year round .
  10. Some fine mature beasts there mate .Good luck on the 'morrow .
  11. Its pretty obvious what happened here .The duck came across this fella struggling in deep water and to help him out he 'toad' it to the other side . Or -Opportunity mate ,plain and simple .I kept fancy pheasants in an avary once and was surprised one day ,to watch a golden pheasant hen chase ,catch and eat a full grown woodmouse that was in the feeder .Mouse was still wriggling in the birds crop .
  12. JD -have a look on some of the American hunting shop websites like BASS PRO,ESPN.They are cheap enough mate .
  13. Nice one mate and may that be the first of many for you .What scope is that by the way ?
  14. Just for reference -Anybody thinking of fitting a bipod on a standard forend would do well to fit a full threaded stud that has its own locking nut on the inside of the forend. . Theres nothing high tec about fitting a bipod ,just a bit of commen sence .IMO the screw in studs arnt man enough for a bipod .
  15. ........and you could get 4 blackjacks for a penny .Wagon wheels were 6 inches round and cost .Curly worleys were 2p each and ten fags 28p .Outside loos were considered the norm and indoor loos were the mark of a toff .Badger digging was legal and a popular Sunday past time for me and my grandad .
  16. Does the mind good to have easy ones now and then You down South before the seasons over mate ?
  17. ...............in whelp ,yep all of them .Dont want those cuddly little cubs running about the place do you .FFS that is pest control at its best .The farmer will be lambing soon and will be well pleased profits will be up and those two lads can sleep easy knowing the've done a very decent job .And jake- It dosnt affect your ground one bit so wind your neck in .Well done lads .
  18. So get your bullx to the vet and have that toe amputated .
  19. Now thats nasty.Im sure i saw one of keeps with a deben collar on in another thread ,or is that just to walk it .I would love to see some genuine pics of a plummer doing the earth work but as yet i feel let down and disappointed by the lack of one .
  20. Well ,as deker said ,theres no law says that you need a cabinet and as far as i know theres no law stating they have to inspect your security .If theres ground for an arrest on firearms charges they will get a warrant but you are not obliged to let them in ,even on routine visits .
  21. Now ,with this in mind ,flick to the 'bird of prey 'thread .
  22. Very good mate .Not easy at all .Ive done it with the rifle but not too often
