  1. Green out (Viscera). legs and head on just to clarify whats being weighed out here. (CLEAN) average weights though between 38lbs to 42llbs so average 40lbs The 68lb beast was the largest ever i shot but had a few at over 65lb clean but exceptionally rare. Lets put it this way when ones shot everone in the syndicate is aware of it and they usually all come to have a look no matter who shot it the last one shot at 65lb mark was some 4 years ago according to my records by one of the other lads in the syndicate. Larder Dress weights 34lbs to 38lbs are normally between theses two ( viscera
  2. you obviously have never been there cg lol no, ive spent a few months on the street, live with very few mod cons now. lived in a caravan when i was very broke although i cant fish for shit, if he had a cabin i cant see why it would be that bad! id give it a go for a few months though. your cabin would be under 20feet of peat bog the min you stepped inside, would sink faster than the titanic. trust me if i had to choose i would take the street everytime. its a god forsaken place. Very true unless the cabin he had was sat on top of a life raft double insulated hull and so
  3. Rannock Moor leading into Glencoe is a desolate place no doubt about that, not a place i would like to chance my hand at survival in winter conditions. Even in Summer its a Barren environment with small peat lochs and little else etc roaming red deer, There used to be loads of Road Kill reds at the side of the road in latter years but i think those are getting few to what it used to be. not knowing the full circumstances of how he was obtaining protection from the ellements and how he maintained warmth and food sources can only lead to conjecture of such an ill prepared existance, or it
  4. I have never seen a sign that says 30MPH x 10%+2 anywhere has anyone else if you have post a piccy up I would be very interested. The trouble with me when I am driving I seem to miss seeing them and sometimes dont see the repeater signs as usually i am concentrating on something else. Very naughty of me I know thats why i realized i needed to sharpen my concentration and driving attitude up last time i got done for doing 44MPH in a 40 zone and took a speed awareness course paid my money bit my lip and went. I can assure you in law there is no tolerance its up to the driver to keep i
  5. Oh no it dosent As the Audience shouts hes behind you. The law is quite clear if your in a 30mph zone and your speed is 31 you have broke the law. the limit is that you will not be breaking or contravening the road traffic act at any speed below or up to the limit. Even if you was doing 10mph you would be compying within those tolerances etc whilst driving on a motorway where a vehicle must be capable of maintaining a min speed of 30MPH Thats why mopeds are not allowed on but some tractors and agricultural machinery are because they comply with the min speed set. Airing on a sid
  6. What a shame and i dont mean about you being banned. If she stopped me in the street and asked directions like the quickest way to Oldham i think I would be mighty sharp out of the starting blocks
  7. I should imagine mark will sort that out in a package when hes sorted it all out while hes over there. By the way have you ever thought of cutting the straps on that avatar of yours
  8. Brilliant Mark good luck ,look forward to your account of your trip on your return, no doubt you will put it up on both forums. Stu
  9. Is the anyone on here who wants to take on the third mans job as a tree planter? while hes of sick like
  10. a mate of mine went to bed with two Thai girls last night, he said it was like winning the lottery! He said he had 6 matching balls I was standing at the bar and this little Chineese guy is stood at the side of me So I asked him do you know martial arts like Kung fu and ju-Jitsu or karate. He replied why the feck do you ask me that.... is it because I am CHINESE? I said no its because your drinking my pint you little c..t!!.
  11. Paddy and Mick had a spade each Paddy was digging the hole and his mate Mick imediately filled it back in This old woman was watching them doing this and after the 9th hole her curiosity got the better of her so she walked across the field and said to Paddy Tell me why does it take two men to dig a hole and fill it back in? Paddy replied well it normally takes three of us but the other lad who plants the trees phoned in sick this morning.
  12. What work programs do members on here participate in to promote their habitat and describe the invironment or piccies of what it was like before and after you work program if you would please. Do you think that stalkers should consider being involved more in improvement or do you think nature should be left to fend for itself. Do those who involve themselves in improving the habitat see results in deer control also do you consider you could do more or less in your efforts. Does your efforts involve soil and fauna improvements if so please describe what work and methods you adopt.
  13. Interesting, are you saying 35 lbs is too low that roes are bigger than this? In trying to understand comparable sizes with our whitetails, do roes run an average of 50 lbs field dressed? 35lb as an average for me is not to say would be the same elswhere a lot does depend on available food and the value of it, location and to a large degree how much disterbance the beasts will tollerate, also population is a big concideration if not the biggest, on my patch l have had beasts in excess of 50lb clean and as low as 10lb clean go further south and you may well get a higher average wieght wi
  14. The candidate here used a zip tie personally I used sterilised waxed thread ,and yes I use two ties on both the oesophagus and likewise on the anal tract also in respect to a buck i use two ties on the uniray tract and cut off inbetween the two tie offs Remove the pluck intact and if no signs of disease despose of otherwise its bagged for further investigation. The Rumen and viscera after examination is split and left discreetly or either buried well away from water courses but depends on the nature of the ground. Either is acceptable in Scotland Hope this helps Stu
  15. Those lads who I have already replied to but not yet taken out or made/ confirmed arrangements to take up our offer please send me a P.M again or any other chaps interested in taking the offer up. My Feb schedule is fully booked the next one hopefully in March. as you can appreciate its first come first served as we have had a huge take up on it. Applicants please be aware that those participating also need to help out in our habitat program which includes ride clearances etc. In return both myself and stalking partner will take you out both on evening stalk and morning stalk and teach you
  16. just goes to show that he was a polite chap and had a good up bringing ,i think a few of us would have used alternave phrases, like please go away with short jerky movements or words to that effect His pattern and deeks obviously were set correctly

  18. Sadly again more untruths David. The scheme of introducing young and inexperienced stalkers to help with both mine and Andrews lease arrangements was my idea . I suggested to Andrew the plan and he agreed on the condition that those who took us up on it helped with the overhaul wildlife plan. Its not free as participants have to supply their time and labour in creating a better environment. I dont search for kudos as you imply and neither does Andrew but you seem hell bent in trying to discredit me or the effort that i have willingly put into it. I get the impression from your posting D
  19. Two defamatory statements once again i see untruthful in all respects , but i wont rise to such crap as i will only be lowering myself to gutter snipe levels . Personally my view is if anyone has a hapence of nonce about whatever your involved with, they would do well to steer well clear , aint that a fact, but those are just my personal observations which may or may not be shared by others. Me think the lady protests to much I say Hark do I hear the whimper of someone crying WOLF Someone hand me a barge pole will you so i can fend him off
  20. In that assumpsion you would be incorrect, I know how it should work but as i stated i wouldnt join one for a gold clock, still those that do must feel the rewards of being a member As regards insurance well as a Life Member of B.A.S.C its not an issue with me
