  3. Thanks for replying and for the advice, much appreciated After I posted the question I realised that I may have offended some that make the beautifull hand crafted catapults that are posted on here, but my intention is to try it first, to see if the catapult is for me and then to invest in some of the one offs and bespoke pieces so apologies for any offence that I may have caused I have very very thick skin ... I dont try too hard to make my cattys, most of mine I sell for less than £20 all in with bands too .. They work to hunt with ,, no matter what they look like ... even better if you
  4. yeah ... I know just what you mean...
  5. I grew up using a catty ,, I never saw many gypsys in the minning village I grew up in ..but I did make the wooden lead moulds .. I used to shoot anything with my catty from house sparrows off roof for ferrets ... Even had catty wars with my own made catty against my mate with his black widow.. only 1.77 airgun pellets could be shot at each other but they hurt like hell on arse .. why would you want to pay over odds for a catty..
  6. Only you can know the answer to this question... practice nd try most of them

  13. For me collie x is bread for herding sheep ... apbt was bread to fight having more jaw power + all the other things needed to fight ,,, while I like both types of lurchers .. Ive seen with my own eyes which works best on foxes.... while I realy like the collie x It has not got the tools for the job of killing foxes..Ive seen good collie x's too with great heart but to be fair they are not in same league as a good bullx on fox... Its a bit like a middle weight fighting a heavy weight you admire the middle weight but something tells you who's going to win in end ... I am taking the best collie

  21. Hi bud. Do you know exactly how he did it? I have tried alsorts with both rabbit hare and deer skins, using, saltpetre, borax, tbags, oak bark, etc, and i can never get them completly soft at the end of the process. I have heard the red indians used to chew the hides I just used salt nd scraped it off with any skin .. no expert but I moved it every day for a weeks and re salted it ,, Did they dry quite soft and supple though Micckey? It was years ago. I moved it about didnt let it set stiff scrapped it then re salted it, If you leave them too long they set rock hard ...
  22. So how would you all control the urban fox problem ? Since the new attack on the baby ,,
