  1. I would like to see singlehanded on a stag because I don't think it can be done ,the red deer where I live can way more and 20 stone and no way would a single dog could do that
  2. I sub contract to a national firm and they charge plus vat I get 40 percent of it ,but I can do up to10 a day good money but can be hectic at times due to travelling
  3. Ray I'm glad bucks doing well for you ,you stuck with him and now you reaping the rewards ,there's a lot of jealous people out there who probably do feck all but slag other people off, you probably do more than people half your age Happy hunting mate, meet up soon.
  4. I love collie crosses when you get a good one you can't beat them,the dog typ ratcher bred was superb dog on most things ,killed lots of rabbits with him .My best mate had a Hancock bitch when we used to go north a lot she was the same good first year then started to pick her runs more and more ,when you've drove best part of 200 miles its no joke

  6. Who has a Hancock dog that goes out regular throughout the winter running lots of game week in week out without any issues of picking there runs because like I said I only live 15 miles away from him which I could easily buy one but every one I've seen run when put under pressure have eased up ,but that's running lots of game not half dozen rabbit and think you've got a champion but that's just me.
  7. Yes he tried to sell me a dog which he said was a first cross but it wasn't ,I gave him a good name and I respected him for the dog i had which I know I'll never have another like him At that time which was 1999 I was catching lots of game with that dog throughout the country 3-4 nights through autumn and winter.I only live 15 mile from hancocks and I never contemplated getting one off him ,but I think if you lucky with the pup you pick and get it off to a good start and put the time into the dog you will have chance of a descent dog.I know lads who would ruin any dog no matter how well bred t
  8. I had 1xcollie greyhound off typ ratcher ,the best dog I've had brilliant rabbit dog but could do other stuff as well ,but typ ratcher started churning litter after litter for pure financial gain which for me ruined is name.Ive seen a couple of dogs off hancocks which weren't bad but also I've seen some ones as well which I suppose the amount he breeds you will.At least he sells genuine bred dogs not like typ ratcher who was selling so called first crosses but they wasn't , he was just breeding any thing put together but making out he was a genuine bloke just for pound notes
