    I see your point,but only you can make the right choice. All I would say is dont let the tail wag the dog,take control.

    Ive got a 12volt 12amp off the pigeon site,its not very heavy.

    I went pigeon shooting a few years ago in Oxfordshire with a guide,but it was a bit of a rip off to be honest.

    It doesnt matter whats on the land,what matters is if pigeons are interested in it. I see you didnt take my advice regarding a book. Thats the trouble with decoying when lads think they can just start and work it out. You cant just put decoys out and bring birds in. If you get it right you will have a white knuckle shooting experience. You can get through a box of 250 shells before midday and they will come thick and fast. 400 acres is nothing if it doesnt hold them unfortunately. Ive got farms that are a waste of time and one or two that pigeon like when the foods there and they fancy it. Yo

    no mate you have to wait until they are feeding. buy a book on decoying pigeons and learn about it.

    Before no1 moves on does he sell the dog with weaknesses by lying about its abilities and so become a no2 for a while (a shit)? or does he do the honest thing and kill it because he believes the dog is not good enough to make a worker? Which no1 were you Juba? 1a or 1b or were you a bit of both?....yes thats right...A....1....2....B... which is technically partly a number 3.

    Thats the best thing you could of done mate,but make sure you get a good experienced coach who you get on with. Being coached will help you a lot and stop you practicing the wrong habits. I dont agree with bird...better to practice the right way with clays first before going into hectic real situations. Lessons about a month apart with lots of practice in the meantime I would recommend. You can get a lot off youtube aswell.

    always take them off pups. once they get damaged it never stops.

    What next? acorns, rape? or have you still got some stubbles to shoot over?

    Very smart mate. Two important things about kennels is they need to be free of draughts and have good drains..
  15. jeemes
    yes good stuff mate. I havnt seen any for years either.
  16. jeemes
    Have you asked the trainer if he has any contacts? Have you had a look on greyhound data?
  17. jeemes
    I just bought one of those bouncers on a flexible bit of tube. I havnt tried it yet but if it works then great! no wires,batteries etc

    If you get it quickly to a greyhound vet you can get an op so the callousing isnt bad.

    Whos a fan of this type of cross. They look like they can run but do they have the heart for it. I know they are said to be dog aggressive but is this also true or just the odd one?

    good shooting mate,what caller did you use and how loud was it? Im going to have another go in a few weeks and appreciate any good tips.
  21. jeemes
    Its not the stud but the pups you have to try to imagine. Mammals are not meccano sets that you can just make up. If you are happy with your bitch why are you not thinking of breeding her to another of the same type? If she lacks what you want I would just get another dog. If you really need to go on a forum to ask what type of dog you should use as stud then I suggest you dont bother breeding. Ask yourself why you want to breed a litter of pups in the first place.

    The best Rook shooting Ive had was on layed Barley, they were suicidal. Ive found not getting out the hide unless you have to helps. They are clever but hopelessly curious.its strange really, many people looking for permission, would get some where by offering to shoot crow / rook, they are a massive problem when the crop starts to turn, or when the lambs are in the fields, and not many people put the time in with them, compared to say pigeon's, or rabbits, and if you do a decent job they will let you shoot the rest of the vermin, it's a way of gaining trust, they are a really good way in, I e

    I used a talking crow a couple of weeks ago with real feathers on it. As a decoy bird it was fine but the calling didnt really have much effect. Crows see the decoys from along way off anyway. I think the hide is more important. I had quite a good day with a few carrion.

    good luck mate.covers still a bit thick though.
