Hi All

 

I found the forum a little while ago and registered and have been lurking in the background for a while just soaking up information.

 

I live just outside Horsham in a village called Slinfold.

 

Currently looking at starting a little hunting to put a little food on the table, pigeons with an airgun and bunnys by any means I can. Currently got my first bunny via my whippet blue.

 

I am looking at possibly getting ferrets and purse nets. I will probably also consider long netting when I can find some suitable land to do it on.

 

Thanks in advance for any advice and help any posts to any of my questions and taking time to help a newbie who knows not a lot (bit like winnie the pooh really)

 

Cheers

 

Robin

[WHAT AGE DID YOUR DOG START CATCHING]

Dead chuffed today, Blue, my whippet caught his first proper rabbit after a run.

 

He managed to catch a mixi ridden rabbit at about 8 months but I dont really count that as it was only a few paces to catch the poor thing.

 

Having just about reached 11 months old and out for a walk down the local woodland and football pitch he spotted a belly down rabbit and took off after it. I wasn't until the rabbit slowed to go into some bramble after somewhere like 120ft that he did actually catch it though.

 

Still I am happy with him and he got loads of praise and a few treats
