  1. :11: @Ditchshitter... I can understand where you are coming from Nightwalker BUT,...this is not a suitable medium to judge another man's running dog.. I've been privileged to examine several thousand lurcher's in my time,...and quite frankly, it would be cruel, and serve no real purpose to point out ,.'in public' the various physical shortcomings of a fellow member's dogs...And considering my own choice of a lurcher hybrid,... :11: I would be the first for the big drop!... Each to his own mate,..Bull cross to Borzoi, Bedlington to pot licking grass verger,..somebody loves em,..and that i
  2. Er,...maybe I do's,.and,.maybe I don't....
  3. No offence meant Ditch Shitter,... I can obviously understand the 'economics' of your situation as regards purchasing a Kania 2000 trap for £40.00....or thereabouts,.depending upon your geographical location,...but,.I figure that a target species deserves a quick and humane end (that is WHY I pioneered the Bodygrippers and the Kania,..plus others to follow )...So,..as a pro hunter, the £40.00 is considered to be an investment for the future. OF course,.if you are just having some fun and trying to catch various critters for your own amusement,.well yes, I would agree with you. Make some t
  4. Forget Imbras and Juby's for Mink Ditchshitter,... As YOU well know,...these excellent rabbit traps were designed for setting,.in the burrow,.for rabbits..and whilst they will most certainly take out a Mink,.or a feral cat,.oops,..the BMI 116 Bodygripper is a far better killing tool.. The USA Trappers use the 110 Conybear ,they rate it highly,...but our 'powers that be',.. dictate that we must use the 116 Magnum....Same with the Fenn's... The Mk 4 will easily catch and lightly hold the mink,.AND take it down if a drowning wire is fitted, (illigal),.and the recommended tool for the job is th
  5. Ooops,.sorry Ian,.but I hit the 'self destruct' button again Thats the story of my life, eh....
  6. Your 8 month old pup Ruby, looks to be coming on real nice moomin I've got an 'eight monther' meself,...and what a difficult fecker she is She has put years on me,... :11: Its very hot and humid 'darn sarf' and I can't wait to get back amongst the rabbits. Hopefully , a few days hard work on the chalk downlands will sort her silly head out,... Roll on September
  7. It’s always nice when things turn out well. The breeding of lurchers is often a hit and miss affair and before one can say with any confidence that a project has been a real success, there is much to go wrong. Back in 2005, in the October 8th issue of The Countryman’s Weekly, the subject of my article concerned the Newcastle-under-Lyne based lurcher enthusiast, Dave Cooper. I mentioned his exciting foray into the unknown. A year or so previous, he had put his Australian Kelpie across a top class greyhound, and this union had produced an honest and serviceable litter of work dogs. The red
  8. NO SANE PERSONS ON YOUR WAVELENGTH CHALKIE :11: Your not wrong there... That's gotta be a first for you
  9. Yes,.chuck off the silly auld fool that keeps deleting his posts and pictures,.. Honestly,..it does my fecking head in....
  10. Hello Mr. Warren. My nets must have just been shite then (Brinded's Nets) I must say that i have seen it a few times when i have had a rabbit hit near center between two poles, the top line pulls down. But thats when i had the poles at 8 yards, i have now reduced to 6 yards. Also, splicing the line of a quickset net is a right B@stard!!!!! I am not "anti-quickset" as most of my nights adventures i have used the quickset, but feel that if i was using traditional i could have accounted for more bunnies. Its only last season that i hed learned to handle traditional nets and im
  11. Might go C,...mind you,..I've heard that you are so famous now, you even charge for autographs Seriously,...regarding my 'deleting problem',..er,.its a medical thing,...I just get fed up chatting to guys who ain't on the same wavelength,...so,.when a thread is going nofeckinwhere,...I just 'gets me coat',.and fecks off,. But,.I'll willingly 'talk dogs' with a genuine guy till the cows come home,.... All the best to ALL crosses,...CHALKWARREN....
