    All my land has excellent populations of owls, Ive also squeeked in long and short eared owls. I help them breed each year by providing nest boxes in the sheds, they are used most years. If you want to get some awesome pics give me a shout.

    Kenny is there any specific make of call that they come to that your using? they come in at a rate of knots with just your lips making a rodent squeek... early evening is best, just after dusk for tawny, and just before dusk for barns, when they are hungry. they will ignore squeeking if they have fed.

    When my grandad was a keeper he used to squeek in the bog owls and try and shoot em so that they dropped in the back of the pick-up! Only joking, but they come in a treat mate, as do barn owls. I could take you out on the fell here and squeek in barns and tawnys so that they are hovering over your head, would make a cracking photo.

    Hi Stabba Thats bad news about the half cross mate. I know how you feel seeing a bull cross smashing into something, not a nice sight. Ive been lucky enough, both my lurchers broke nails off in the same week, but then it froze out and they recovered by the time it melted... their both working daily again now. Fingers crossed for the future mate. All the best DnN

    Thanks mate, the stag in my pic is a small old bugger. You can see my drag ropes on him it was a straight forward drag as far as I remember. He probably only weighed 12 stone or 168 lbs.. but even on that very rough high ground we had a stag of 21 stone 294 lbs which my mate ben had to drag to the pony, luckily all down hill! I do remember some real grueling drags though, basically if there was any uphill involved it was going to be a b*****d!

    Got tons of pics, heres a couple showing various aspects of scotish hill stalking. In many areas we extract the deer with ponies, as ATV's cant access the steep ground.

  19. dogs-n-natives
    Mate, its either in the dog or its not, no training required.

    I'd agree with the first post, get out with someone if you can find a decent chap that is willing to help. Maybe you could find someone on here? I'd keep it away from the bunny's though, altogether.

    Nice read chaps, much apreciated have a good chrimbo you lot!

    Nightstalker, aye they are plent fast enough for foxes, which until the ban came in were my main quarry. Now we operate as a gun pack almost, drawing covers and working the terriers for various estates and farms. Dont listen to the people who say that they cant run or have no turning ability, as dogs like this are fast enough and very agile. These lurchers are still a very important tool for the vermin controller, and despite the new regulations they have plenty of work. Their noses are excellent and they will draw woods like a hound, and mark strongly to ground, if a bolted fox is wounded

    For good results you should be aiming for a lurcher of 24-28 inches, and I like a dog with some weight behind it, say 70-90 lbs, and FAST, good feet, VERY AGILE, and super determined.
