  1. Nice going there buddy. And thanks for taking the time to do a write up. I like to read about what goes into a session, can pick up the odd tips here and there when theres a write up Phantom
  2. Sunday School???? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo Dont tell me our Aaron has gone all bible basher, stick to bunny, woody and squizzer bashing, much more pleasurable and more rewarding Nice pair Aaron, (another one gets a Squizzer!) am I the only one who dont have access to the tree rat fraternity? Looking at the shot placement, you are becomming an excellent Marksman Phantom
  3. Most of the Police are decent and those in Rural areas are usually knowlegable as well and ask the correct questions before they get grumpy. IE "Is this your land?" or "Do you have permission to shoot on here?" Sadly there are a few people both in the force and in the AG community that have an attitude problem. The stereo typical one's such as "I'm f**king legal pig, you can't touch me" brigade and then the other side of the coin is "I'm the law around here you little bag of scum therefore I know more than you do" Put the two of these together and it flares up big time. You did well
  4. Superb explanation Si You have just saved a lot of people a lot of hassle Well done. Phantom
  5. Nice going Now get some Cajun spices and do the lad a nice squizzer supper Phantom
  6. Well ladies and gentlemen, I decided that today I just had to go and scratch my itch So I pumped my baby up to 180, got my portable backstop and a zero target into my pack, made sure I had pellets im my pouch, slung on my dpm on and headed off to the paddock. Got there at 14:00 to find no nags (owner must have stabled them due to the recent weather) just a field full of big black; beaked monsters strutting their stuff like they owned the place. As I arrived at the gate there was a loud 'CAW, Caw" and with that the paddock turned green again and the sky turned black as they took to th

    I'm OFF

    Guy's Gal's and everyone else thats not sure of what they are.... What a lot of people dont know is that most of the crap happens by PM and not on the forum Recently we have had a great deal of the good regular posters leave THL simply because they have gotten fed up with the jerkoffskies. The forum on a whole is a good place to be and people will generally try to help out others as best they can, sometimes people may take offence at something that was not actually intended as offensive. Then there are a few people who just set out to cause as much grief for as many people as the
  8. I'd agree with that. I really don't think of it as a sport, like fishing, I find it relaxing and sometimes darn right infuriating. Trying to out-wit nature, getting the better of somethings superior senses and instincts is what its all about But sport, nah, a fecking great pastime yeah Phantom
  9. Nice idea, I don't do religion, but I'll take part just for the comp and like you say, faces to names. That is assuming I have the brass and means to get there
  10. You want close Aaron? Walking upto my permission there are ALWAYS bunnies sat at the side of the road on the embankment side. I could (if I was quick enough) reach over to my side and grab them. They seem to know they are safe on that side The very closest I got to quarry was one morning in long grass at the side of a field, I nearly stood on a kit. I felt it hit my foot as my foot went down and it bolted. Gave me the fecking fright of my life I was lucky I managed to bag one later, which was suprising as my heart was thumping still and I could have sworn they could hear it bang
  11. I'm after a Combro Used a friends, but he says he's lost it. Reckon he shot the thing (many people have done just that ) when he was testing Phantom
  12. Welcome back Stealthy ( I know you aint been gone, but its nice to see you writing again ) Looking forward to reading more from you soon I was planning a trip out today, but got sidetracked by a medical appointment Weather forcast is crap for tomorrow, but I'm getting cabin fever and going cold turkey withdrawl. I need to get out again before I go mental! Oh sh!t too late, Phantom
  13. :clapper: Nice one buddy. The hare's round here dont seem to be bothered by noise either, I was out for a walk last year when I saw my 1st 'up-close' one (often seen em in the distance from cars, trains etc). It didnt seem bothered by the ambient noise (farmer in harvester, traffic on road etc). Then it amazed me by comming closer to me, litterally a few meters . I have since learnt that although they have great vision when looking out for predators, they have very limited forward facing vision. I dont think I will see any on my permission though Phantom
  14. Hey Shay, Just had a gander around, its not so much as a section, its actually a thread thats 51 pages in length so far http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=25395&st=0 Phantom
  15. I love to use my catties There is a section on here for catties, think its in the Gamekeeping and conservation forum I use .38 steel as I cant find any lead balls (other than fishing shops and they aint cheap!) Phantom
  16. Ask the shop what the pellet is and get them to give you a list of the speeds (usually either a 5 or 10 shot string). Once you have that pellet and its speed, that will give you the ft/lbs. Then all you need to do is enter the data into chairgun pro (pellet and ft/lbs) and save it. Then when you enter another pellets data, the ft/lbs velocity, etc will be calculated automatically for that pellet using the algorithams written into C-G-P. It will also calculate and show the tragectory and aim points for what ever reticle you happen to be using. DL it and have a play, you'll soon ge
  17. Not a care in the world, especially when that lump 'a' lead knocks all their brains out their ears Phantom
  18. Go to the Hawk optic site and grab a free copy of Chairgun Pro. That way you can see a trajectory graph of any and all pellets on the market. Its so accurate as well. that way you dont have to spend a fortune on pellets. choose the one that looks the best and then buy them and test them in your rifle barrel to give the best results. ATB Phantom
  19. Forgot to mention, Some of his targets he keeps off the free site as they are a li'l 'controversial' (to say the least ) However his 3D targets are awsome Phantom
  20. Way too many to mention A personal friend of mine runs the 'Target Bunny' site. All jims targets are free Phantom
  21. The mans a genius Why the feck didn't the rest of us thick sods think of that Guess thats why Sean's a mod Phantom
