hey lads
after a pretty unsuccessful night of shooting (that write up is in that section) we decided to work the ferrets and new pup (in training)we hit the ground at 06:45 2 men 6 ferrets and a border terrier pup on the night shoot we saw shit loads of bunnies
so we were looking forward to a good day.
the 1st set was a small 5 eye set we netted up put one of the gills down 2secs later 1 in the net followed by another then nothing so off to the 2nd set a little bigger about 10 holes new netted up put 2 jills down and the ground moved 10 rabbits later it when quiet but the ferrets refused
hi lads
me and markeman got this new permission the other week and last night we decided to give it ago so wor kid rang the farmer the day before then rang me to say ill pick you up at 01:30 which turned out to be 02:30 cos he forget to wake up anyhow off we set 2 blokes..6 ferrets 2 guns and a dog ... arrived on site about 3:30 and could'nt how light it was we were in the middle of no where the sky was clear moons shining down on us and not a breath of wind (apart from wor kid :sick: )
anyhow i put my wellies on which was a wise move WASNT IT wor kid lol and off we set to the fi
id check kev mate with the land owner ....reason being if the farm next door has just released them they are probably been bred for a shoot on which people have to pay ...if the game keeper who released them catches you shooting them it might cause problems with the 2 neighbours and in turn cause problems for you on your permission so if i was you mate its probably best to check 1st
