    forgot to add, dont feed them a day or two before shoot day, get them hungry and looking for the food where it normally is

    try having the hoppers empty the week of the shoot and hand feed the birds around the areas you want them to hold, this stops them coming in and gotrging on food and then leaving again, we have had very similar results to you on our little shoot, we tried the above last weekend and doubled our previous bag?

    had my first shine of the season last night, the stock had finally been taken off the fields earlier this week, although half of it still had cows and sheep on and the farmer doesnt want us lamping with stock in them, so only managed a couple of parks, still a nice easy shift for the dogs despite it being ideal conditions last night, there wasnt much about, the dogs ran well and only missed a couple, had work at 4:30 this morning so only an hour out. it was nice to meet you david, i was surprised being a taff that you left them sheep alone!! see you next week

    average season for a bitch is 3 weeks, just because you lined her, doesnt mean she will come out of season the next day

    Also as ricky says dont set yourself uptp fail, dont try to do this as the dog is running in the opposite direction 200 yards from you, try it as its coming towards you at a very close distance, once mastrered close in then increase distance, and any signs of unwillingness at distance go back to closer in, keep you and the dog winning!!
  17. thurso jack
    if he is still coming to you when you ask him to sit, run towards him and make him sit where you ask him to, by moving towards him giving your sit command, he will/should sit, you have to act when your dog doesnt listen and not when its at your feet as by then its too late, hope that makes sense, im no expert but it has worked for me and i have been told similar by those who are experts

    Selwyn your memory is spot on . I was close friends with Bert from the early 70's up until his death and particularly during the time he was terrierman to the Border Counties Otterhounds (BCOH) under the Mastership of Mr R.P. Williams who also hunted the hounds. Bert was terrierman to the BCOH up until 1977 when the otter was placed on the protected list. The BCOH retained all their original hounds, but then reformed as the Border Counties Minkhounds under the Mastership of their new Huntsman John Newton. Bert's hearing had started to fail by then, terrier locators were still a rela

    your terms are not satisfactory. They allow you to sell the image, and that is not acceptable to any photographer, whether professional or amateur. i will be sending details to the EPUK" unfair competition grab" website for adding to their database. nobody is forcing you to enter Better to point out these things than people be taken in and misled. Imagine you take the winning photo, and you find it plastered all over advertising their products/services whatever, but you cannot claim anything from it all, ever! yes, but i think reporting it to some website or other is
