    Yesterday saw me and David mooching again for charlie. We decided to lay up at a nice spot overlooking the edge of some forestry. We set up at about 9pm and was busy watching a roe doe when suddenly a hen pheasant flushed from the edge of the trees . I told David get ready as surely charlie was very close by , anyway a couple of seconds later and a nice dog fox emerged from the bracken which David took without any hesitation

    After speaking to a local farmer he told me he had lost a few of his laying hens . So I pre-baited an area with rabbits and went back last night for a look. All of the rabbits had been taken so I knew charlie was working that area !! I laid up til nearly dark and saw nothing so I decided to give it til 10.30pm and then pack up. 10.30 came and I wandered back to the car a bit disheartened. On reaching the car I laid my rifle on the back seat and was just emptying it when I spotted Charlie crossing the field I quickly grabbed the rifle , lay down and gave the fox a

    Had a look out yesterday evening to thin out a few rabbits for an old farmer who was complaining about the numbers. On arrival he wasnt in and I noticed 3 rabbits sitting on his lawn , so out with the .22 and 2 of them were bagged.I then spotted a few woodies feeding on clover so I stalked to the dry stone wall and bagged one of these also . I continued to stalk the ground along the edge of some woodland where most of the rabbits were coming from. As I stalked along the edge of the wood I happened to look over the wall and was confronted by a nice roe-buck staring back at

    Ive got a Tikka T3 mate and love it . Accurate rifle mines in .243 and has a T8 fitted , very good moderator just makes the rifle unbalanced when carrying it. My mate also has a Tikka T3 with an S5 mod fitted which is a lot shorter and just screws on the end rather than over the barrel. Both great mods though ! I use either 58 grn v-max or 100 grain Winchester ammo , both shooting well !!

    The other evening I went to a sheep farm that I carry out fox control on. I went to check an earth that I knew held cubs , but on inspection they had been moved. Any way I found that they had only been moved 1 field further and were in some very dense nettles adjoining a sheep field grazed short by the sheep. I stalked the farm first seeing a couple of roe does , one of which I stalked to within 20 yards of. Next I nearly trod on a fox lying in a patch of nettles . I continued further to a badger sett where I saw the sow and 5 cubs out playing................. I

    The weekend saw me and David out stalking again. 7.30PM we set off stalking up a gorse covered valley , we spied a doe to start with just casually going about her business. Then as we meandered through the gorse a buck appeared from nowhere just walking behind the bush in front of us, I crept around and he never even knew what happened , good start to the evening we had only been out 1/2 an hour. We continued up the valley to lie and watch from a good vantage point . On arrival I spied a nice 6 pointer and a doe out in the valley below, David took this buck at approx 250yards with an
