  1. I have had some top named/brand cattys worth hundreds and not been able to shoot them. I envy anyone who can pick up any type of Catty and shoot it well.
  2. Rubbish as in looks or your ability to shoot one ?.
  3. Yes but it needs to be in the lurcher section for maximum selling power… remember the content is Irrelevant.
  4. Like the title says…. .9 gzk black 22/14 and 9.5mm steel.
  5. No mate the tubes don’t sit right/ tighten down on the xt or copy properly. The new flip clips are good tho.
  6. Well….. your certainly flogging this one. ? your quite a salesman.
  7. Cmon Poxon... you’ve been on here long enough to realise Phil is a serial deletist ...?
  8. Yes mate. I couldn’t shoot it, didn’t feel right. I know a lad who uses one and he’s spot on with it.
  9. I have one here mate , pm me your address and I’ll fire it over for you ??
  10. Only got the two and if I can start next year with one of those then I’d be a happy man. The amount of swarms I could have hived is reaching double figures now but it gets a little expensive. Only last night I had a message asking if I could catch up two swarms very close to one another.
  11. Good on ya mate, I do understand that sometimes there is no other option but every one saved it better for everyone in the long run.
  12. I take hempseed oil and a probiotic drink, I’m up at dawns crack like a spring chicken and out with dog for a couple of hrs then hobble home feeling all of my 56 years .... by 4pm I’m ready for sleep.
  13. As Minnow says best looped 1745 for 10mm lead. I shoot 11mm steel with my set up which is roughly the same weight as 10mm lead and kill out to 25 + yards easily.
  14. Nice sort ??, a lad I know has a litter due this coming Monday.... I’m very very tempted.
  15. I picked another up last weekend and it was only 3ft off the ground around a apple tree but by feck it was awkward ?
  16. First inspection of the “Cas” bees today, they’ve been in the hive for two weeks now, they were very gentle and stopped on the comb throughout, plenty of capped brood ... couldn’t be better.
  17. When I saw her first thing I thought was burrell lurcher with her looks ??
  18. Lovely pup, what’s in the breeding ?.
  19. Had a few close calls with the Hushpower.410 so sold up and now only use the catty.
  20. I know a few that cut a hole in a sock and put a pigeon inside, the dog will retrieve the pigeon without a mouth full of feathers. Good for starting pups.
  21. A lot of lurchers will catch birds but don’t give a full retrieve ( spit em out on way back) what I’ve found best is if you can get hold of duck ( teal or wigeon ) and start em off retrieving those, hardly any feathers to come out and they float in water.
  22. Good idea ?? , is that a sparrow ?.
