  2. Hello all, Im a grouse keeper and from time to time i have to sit out for a fox or a vixen comming back to her cubs and can be there for hours. I find when lying in the prone position for a long time my neck, arms and shoulders start to hurt, I was wonding if anyone had some tip for this? Cheers, Tom
  3. dont bother with an escort they are a heap of shite and will not stand up to any real work, i had one and i used it every day and it only lasted a year before it started so f**k up, now i shoot with an 8shot m2 benelli. its like driving an old banger for a year then upgrading to a bugatti, its a joy to shoot.
  4. its best to work for a big shoot, you get looked after better. plus you have bigger days, not pissing about with 18 birds by the end of the day.

    I saw on the telly the other day a load of lurcher boys get done for coursing hares but the lurcher lads know this never happens as if people are fcuking stupid,they shouldnt be doing it regardless.they wouldnt like it if there dogs were shot. now go and think about your post :thumbdown: thats 1 thing i dont have to think about.i fly birds of prey,i have lurchers,terriers,ferrets my fac and sgc and i even going beating in the winter to,as for the lads getting caught hare coursing its there own stupit fault but shooting raptors is and has always been illegal but most of the trigger hap
  6. I agree with you mate, with that they should stop hunting down keepers, but the reason birds of prey are so abundant on shooting estates are that it is a like all you can eat buffet. im sure most birds of prey feast on game birds than any other animal because there an easy dinner they would get more wild game moving in and have bigger broods make it to adulthood, plus more mice(kez) rabbits(gos,buz,kite ect, pigeons (sparrow hawks, gos, perigrine) plus all the lapwings and ostercatchers chick and adults most birds of pray will take. Birds of pray dont just eat gamebirds and thats partly
  7. I agree with logun, the rspb need to stop hunting down keepers and worry about their reserves. you think they would wonder how it is that there are so many birds of pray around shooting estates and very few on the own ground. its because we control crows, stoat and fox ect which leads to an abundance of other birds and animals for them to eat. if they would take their heads out their arse's they could see that, but this doesn't agree with their idea's on how the country side works. if they would take this aproch then made some time down the line keepers could be able to conrol birds of pray wh
  8. im no expert but snow, hard frost or a piss wet day are best times to check and after you'v checked them leave them alone for a few weeks to get rid of your smell around the hole.
  9. the highland gamekeeper by Dugald Macintyre is a fav of mind and the poachers hand book by ian niall is also agood read
  10. do you not need some kind of paper work for protected animals? might be wrong
  11. I payed £300 for my pup from working stock (levi oaks), still a while untill i find out if it was worth the money or not.

  15. Yeh "free" after you join for like £50 a month or what ever it is
  16. only when someone clicks on the add i would think
  17. I dont know about the rest of you but I dont think what we should have these RSPB add's on the site. This is an group who relentlessly campaign and poison the general public against us, the shooting community. Yes they will be putting money into the forum, but they must think there is money to be made out of us and the more member they recruite from adds like these the more power they have. The RSPB although a "charity" advise the government on rural affairs which effects us all. I know i dont have any say in how the site is run but I would like to see if anyone felt the same. (I know ther
  18. you'll not find many jobs on here, you'd be best asking around shooting people and working for nothing if you cant find a full time job right away. you'll learn more and show people your keen and thats what gets you a jobs in keepering. good luck. Bobba
  19. Apparently the only evidence provided it had happened in his area was that someone hasn't backfilled properly so the familiar rectangle was on show whether it is on the site of a set or an earth I can't comment but whoever has done this has made it REALLY on top round here for everybody including lampers. Fuuck me I only lamp rabbits for fecs sake and he knows it but has sworn to report any vehicle he sees parked up at suspicious hours includin mine. Must admit some of the facts she told him are just that, facts! but there's been a bit of billy added in aswell I would just carry on
