The place will be heaving with English patriots, if the muslim extremists turn up the police will have a hell of a job protecting them!

PMSL!! HAHA In answer to the thread; I hunt because I enjoy the hunt in its many forms, it forfills an ancient instinct. I love the natural world, the countryside and working dogs, hunting makes me feel part of all that. Then there is the satisfaction of being able to go out and put food on the table. I think part of it is the male instinct to provide for his family but its a whole lot deeper than that and as such it isnt solely a male thing.

Is that incase one of the rabbits has a flick knife? FTB PMSL

thks mate, thats very kind of you to say. I am lucky enough that i only work mornings. So i can hunt in the week, then when weekend comes we can mooch about freely in the camper.. Cant beat being outside with the countryside.. Fancy swopping jobs? lol. Im sat on my arse at this desk from 8 till 4. Mind you, I dont waste the time Im not at work!

You get out and about alot RFYL! Nice pics and thanks for contributing to the site so much.

I regret not the things I've done, but those I did not do...

IMO a rifle either fits right or it doesnt. You can learn to shoot with a badly fitting rifle but why put yourself at a dissadvantage? Some rifles I pick up just dont sit right, practice brings it together but the feeling of knowing everything is 'right' gives the shooter confidence and confidence is an underated aspect of good marksmanship, something I dont hear mentioned very often.

Firstly I commend your attitude towards your sport and the respect you are showing for your quarry. To answer your question, 'Total Airgun Hunting' by Pete Wadeson has a section in which he takes you through the months of the calendar and what each month brings for the air gunner and the farmer/keeper. Its only a small part of an extensive book but it sounds like what you're after. Im gonna try to get my copy back off of a loan that has lasted FAR too long now, lol. Haven't read it in at least 2 years but imo a very worthwhile addition to any air riflemans bookshelf.

Precision air rifle shooting is NOT as easy as some would have you think. Just make sure you know the basics about taking a shot with a rifle, breathing, trigger control, muscle fatigue etc and just practise. Ive just got myself a knew rifle after an 18 month spell away from the sport and Getting out on the practice range is my only consideration at the moment. Last night I put a small session in and managed to get 5 shot groupings of 0.5" at 30m, however inconsistently! So more time is needed, braking this new rifle in AND reminding my body and mind how to shoot properly again, lol. Just

Ya gotta laugh at these idiots. Rather than wade through the shit left by the last bunch of halfwit thieves and deal with it they would rather carry on as before and pretend the shit isnt there, letting it pile up further! They dont like the reality of the shit we are in and so the first jumped up prick to publicly opose it, the masses back. Regardless of the fact that its bullshit! Economics really aint that complex in this case, we're up to our eyeballs in debt so stop fecking spending and suffer hardship untill we are out of it!

very responsible attitude!

Agree entirely

Your right in what you say and all too often people use the excuse of 'pest control' to shoot in the summer months. My situation is this, im out from late September to late Feburary ferreting and lamping, and I try to make as much of an impact as possible but as soon as the kits are about I call it for the season. Now then, already Ive had phone calls off of the shoot captain on one of my permissions asking for me to get some more ferreting done as the rabbits are showing in numbers! I wont ferret this time of year as I dont find it very productive and generally its a right ball ache, tryi

Yeh, it is IMO. Well worth the little it costs!

There is a line of thought that by not having ya dogs chipped stops trouble being brought to your door if a heavily marked dog does a runner. Some people arnt willing to take that risk. Personally I dont go along with it, I would sooner get my dogs back.

Not being funny pal, but have you ever seen a kc lakey? They are worlds away from even half arsed bred working lakeys. Also, you do know you can show non kc lakeys at the hundreds of country fairs there are, along with all other types of working terrier.

Looks like a few antis had a few too many organic salads and in their malnourished state thought it a good idea to make a cheap film where they live their fantasy of hunting those they despise so much. Oh the fecking irony!

Your bloody talented with that camera!

One topic garunteed to cause trouble on here and thats cats. This is gonna be a 10 pager... Cats, if theyre curled up infront of the fire behaving themselves they are fine, if they are mooching about the hedgrows on the shoot they are not bloody fine. A small feral cat population left uncontrolled will soon cause agro.

Where abouts in lincs are you pal?

another new tool for the gun cabinet

Now that looks a very handy piece of kit! I can imagine it would find alot of use while out on the quad feeding the birds and general vermin control where discretion is neccessary. Infact I can think of half a dozen jobs I could use one for off the top of my head now. Very reasonable price you got it for too. -
Can you get some decent pics up? I MIGHT be interested...

I think it speaks volumes that the hardest of terriers originated from the lakes where rock earths are common place. But I havnt a clue as Ive never seen rock piles worked myself.

Life aint black and white. The bloke sounds a c**t initially but Im not about to judge him when I havnt a clue what hes going through. Alot of variables with this one, too many to make a judgement. The kids wellbeing has to come first, but Im not in that situation so I wont judge. If it was a simple case of go on holiday or go to cancer treatment with the kid the choice is crystal clear, but there WILL be more to it than that!

Have I read that right? Your getting about 22mpg from your Navara!!!!
