  1. just wondering if anyone had any aiming advice when using a catty?.. i fire a catty horizontally and had a look on the web. It says that you put the top fork on the target just wanted to confirm this info? cheers Staffy
  2. Just wondering can anyone give me any advice?... ive started making my own cattys and when i fire them the elastic comes back and hit my fingers.. could this have anything to do with the size of the elastic, handlt or how far down the elastics attatched??? cheers Staffy
  3. how long does the theraband need to be? thanks staffy
  4. Right people as i started this thread it feels my place to upload a picture lol... finally took myself to the local firearms dealer and purchased a black widow on friday morning was out for about 2 hrs and came face to face with a pigeon. A nice clean neck shot i was chuffed . Ive also started to mess about making my own catapults. luckily i came across some old cieling fan fittings (Perfect shape) after attaching the theraband the results were deadly!! Any advice on elastic/handle size would be great because when i fire the catty if flicks back and doesnt half do some d

  9. finally someone on my level!! cheers mate
  10. Well on a previous post i was askin about advice. But i think im just guna take him ferreting for him to try n catch a few bolting bunnies not really interested in high numbers just something to keep him fit, active and to keep his brain ticking.
  11. Sorry theres only one picture guys havent been too snap happy with him. But i will post some more pictures of the boy later
  12. I often teather my owl and harris hawk in the back garden and within a space of 15 mins the trees around the garden are black with crows.. seriously there is loads all the time.. David Fox or other garden centers sell plastic bird garden ornaments best bet is get any that look like birds of prey and put them where you are hunting. The crows will come and sit around them waiting till they think there is enough of them to attack the BOP.. trust me u will bag a lot of crows & maggies (only if your a good shot mind lol)
  13. its just basicaly to keep the dogs mind going and keeping him active, most of the time i will be putting purse nets down for better results Good to see the Staffs being used , and you never know he might suprise us all ,ATB cheers stanleigh

  15. I used to have an alottment a year or so ago and the reason i dont have it any more is because i was seen (on my own plot) shooting rats with an air rifle. It wasnt because i was shooting rats it was because i had a firearm so the answer your looking for is... leave the rifle at home lol Welcome to the forum mate
  16. see now fat man got it right i asked for ADVICE not critisism
  17. Ive recently bought a staffy pup (obviously not old enough to work yet) and i want him to be able to work. But the line of work i want him 2 do is sit ontop of a rabbit warren whilst i send the ferrets down and without the nets catch the rabbits when they bolt. I was just wondering is this legal? and has anyone got any training advice? and to give you a rough idea he is " a long-legged staffy" Thanks
  18. Yeah ive bin told that .44 cal is a gud ammo to use with cattys just getting into the hunting thing with cattys atm so open to any suggestions... feed backs great thanks alot
  19. cheers mate great help, great pictures also. Ive seen a few people using the flatbands but cant imagine them beign practicle in the long run and will probably cost a bomb to replace every week or so? lol
  20. Also looking to buy a Barnett Black Widow but half the time bog standard elastics just dont do the job properly can any 1 suggest the strongest/powerfulest/deadliest elastic to buy thanks
  21. Can any one please tell me where to buy a lead shot mould or how to make lead shots so i can use them in a catapult? Thanks
  22. Hi there my name is Alex a.k.a Staffy1993. Ive been interested in hunting, fishing, shooting and camping from a very young age. I started hunting with a harris hawk about 7 year ago (im 18 now, i did start young). That then turned into a passion for hunting with airguns, lamping and shooting with shotguns. I am now looking to do some pigeon and squirelle hunting with a catapult as permission is tight in Middlesbrough. I do own a Staffordshire Bull Terrier which i do intend on taking out hunting with me once he is confident, obedeant, and old enough (he is 9 weeks lol) Thanks Staffy1993
  23. Just wondered if any one in the north east or prefrably Middlesbrough knows the best place to get ferreting permission?
