  1. Its like anything else, there are good and bad ways of doing it. You couldnt drive a lot of the land we lamp, others, I can see how walking would be ball breaking and frustrating.
  2. No. . . . . but he's had a cockathree. . . . That's a joke before anyone gets emotional. . . . . . . . maybe it should have read a cock-or-three haha
  3. No. . . . . but he's had a cockathree. . . .
  4. You are right in that there isn't a huge amount local to me .. . . . . which i feel partly responsible for That's why I travel, it's why we all travel I think.. . . . . . The lad you speak of is a sound bloke, and that wasn't meant as a dig at him or you. But like has been said on the fox dog thread, opinions are best reserved until you can judge for yourself Although we're all guilty of that, especially on here Yer, you can rotate land, and it works, but more so if you are the only one hunting it. Its not the case for many, so I think some think, they should take as much as they c
  5. Yes mate. . . . . I lay 100 nets for 3 rabbits all of the time. . . . . you need to be careful about listening to rumors from those that don't really go out with me very often . . . . . On that particular day, if its the one I think, the same set had coughed 30 rabbits in short order the season before, and when the dogs marked, it was netted and that time only produced 3. . . . . . . I do like to take numbers, and I DO hit places pretty hard. . . . . all i'm saying is that when you are doing it, if you are out enough, you know when the right time is to call it a day on that particular
  6. There are some funny folk on here, some really don't seem to get sarcasm. . . . And others just don't really seem to get anything. . . . . A wiser man than I, told me that it's a multi parted b*****d. . . . . the catching up, the stopping, the knocking over and the holding down. . . . . . Got to be SOME dog to do one of those proper stags, single handed. But I would imagine there are enough dogs about able to stop does in the right situation. . . . . Carrying the f***ing thing back to the motor however . . . . . . .
  7. Where did I say that one man was going to wipe every rabbit in Britain out with a dog??? What I meant was. . . . if we all. . . . . yep, that's the thousands and thousands of folk who hunt. . . . . . . with dogs, guns etc etc etc, go out for numbers and try to take as much as we all can, without thought to the future. . . . . . thinking, we can always just move onto a fresh spot when the one is f****d. . . . . . . we will eventually run out of fresh spots. . . . . . . . There are plenty of cases around the country, of areas that once held well, being over hunted.
  8. Far more dodgy with a gun ....
  9. That will never happen in one generation anything is possible if you try hard enough....... And anyway, we have a duty to the next gen and those that follow...
  10. Yes....... But eventually you will run out. If you slam every spot as hard as you can, until its dry ..... You cAnt often do it year on year.... And eventually there will be no new spots.
  11. Jesus christ............i thought you were the keeper......never knew you were part-time........... I'm just a bird herder mate
  12. Aye. . . . and better. There are worse things to feed a dog that carrot cake. . . . . but i doubt it'd be great for it You are bang on about the tumors though, and they do seem to grow real quick in ferrets. I also wonder if, with it being a kit, it could be a blockage of some kind? Just grasping at straws. A decent complete cat food is around the 30 to 33 % protein a complete ferret food is 36% protein so not a lot of difference like I said there are far worse things to feed a ferret than complete cat food ....... I was just taking the piss mate. When you said 'cat food
  13. Aye, no worries pal. Just be sure to tell me your tale when you return. . . . . . . you lucky git
  14. All I have to say D/N is. . . . YOU JAMMY b*****d! ENJOY!
  15. Yer I know what its like mate, I took mine out the other evening and walked round the corner of a field and there were about 20 rabbits sat out, he ran a couple all over the place, connecting with one. I had to rush him home and straight into a cold shower. . . . . . . it's fecking murder! I'd love to have that problem Trust me . . . . . It was a pleasant surprise for the first wee while
  16. AYe, early morning is the way mate, up till about 5/6 am, its still ok to even run them behind the quad
  17. We have similar problems - so we have 'working guns' and full payers. The working guns, each have an area (pen) to look after, so that includes working with me, and the shoot captain to sort out their electric fences, pen fences etc, and also any minor tasks that need doing on that pen to ready it for the birds arrival. They also have to attend a minimum number of work parties each year, where things like cutting racks, fencing etc are done as a group. These working guns pay less than the others, and so its a good insentive. If they do not do the work as promised they are gone, either off the
