cdnhastings 23 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 yeah that makes sense to me too! if thats a pic of you at seven feet then you must be fourteen feet tall seeing as that you are bent over at the waist and back paralel to the top o the hole but then again you might be on a ledge that drops another five feet or so.... but whatever was the hunt a success? happy hunting Quote Link to post

woodga 170 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 i know the feeling digging like that and the ledge you make is a lifesaver glad your effort was worth it GOOD HUNTING ALL WOODGA :ph34r: Quote Link to post
Kane 2 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 and millit sorry mate but don't have pic of the finished hole but will get 1 next time and there will be a next time. Best be quick about it,only a few months of summer left :11: Quote Link to post
ROZ 0 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Im not nit picking and i dont know how tall you are but from experience when im bent over in a hole like that it is usually only about 3ft deep..Load's of argument's start on these sight's over the true depth and the photographic depth.. :whistle: .so at the end of the dig mate have you got a pic of the finished hole just to stop this curiosity.. . Millet Why were you digging this time of year was it a call out? surely that hole should of been wider too for that depth especally it being sand? weldone anyway. Quote Link to post

DIGGIT 6 Posted July 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) hi Dillon your right terrier lads do stick to their seasons but the problem i have is that i have got that much ground to cover, i am unable to get round it all in the winter, you know and i know that if i were to stop going that i would lose my ground hand over fist, to someone who would be willing to do it! so let me know lads what would you do in this situation. It was a very good day in a beautiful part of the Principality with VERY good company ..... You can blow your trumpet and praise that little bitch as much as you like Taffy' , she's one to be VERY proud of. Thank you for a very enjoyable day , and will look forward to the next time. Oh , I see someone saw your fly's open . Lucky they did'nt see this sight ....... :whistle: :ph34r: ... My new draw dog :11:...... You dig till you get to them...............

Kane 2 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 hi Dillon your right terrier lads do stick to their seasons but the problem i have is that i have got that much ground to cover, i am unable to get round it all in the winter, and also when the farmer is ringing you up and moaning like a pisser would like to say to him i cannot do it at the moment because of the time of the season, but you know and i know that if i were to say that i would lose my ground hand over fist, to someone who would be willing to do it! so let me know lads what would you do in this situation. Well if you have a farmer ranting down the phone fair enough I personaly still would rather not dig,not this tiume of year anyway. Ive seen a terrier dug to dead through bad conditions hot dry earths and Ive seen 1 or 2 close to death Ill wait till it cools down and leave the summer to the real terriermen This time of year as much as I hate to say it a rifle or shotgun probably the right tool. 9THE QUOTE HAS BEEN EDITED.

rob reynolds uk 3 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) for a 7ft deep hole you would at least need to be 4ft to 5ft wide no way could you dig 7ft down with a hole thats only 3ft wide unless its only a few feet deep ,,i say it looks no deeper than 4 1/2 ft Edited July 11, 2006 by rob reynolds uk Quote Link to post
