.338winmag 78 Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hello folks first time i've followed a non US site but i've found this site quite interesting ,I'm just a old hunter, trapper ,forager ,fisherman etc from a very young age ,was raised by irish folks but my family said that i was part english hehe ,seems to me that we lack some thing here me be old world traditions?as opposed to where your at the UK , love the sporting dog sections we raised coon hounds for years ,also hunted with beagles etc am just getting back in to the catty thing my mother in law bought me a marksman catty a garage sale many years ago and i did'nt really use it much till i ran in to your site looking for catty info and trapping ,was curious how it was done there any way i've started to shoot it again with no#84 chained rubber bands and the other day my son he's 21 since the 7th. shot a pigeon with it went in the freezer needless to say it was one of our most thrilling kills provably because of the home made bands ,i don't get out to hunt this year realy because of a series of family tragedy's ,and have been very broke ,another thing i've seen folks talk about the US that it's easy to hunt here well me be in some parts of the states but the price for fishing and hunting license's plus tags if you want to pursue big game ,or salmon steelhead is very expensive nearly impossible if you have a working class family as i do ,i'm here in the intermountain west Idaho specificaly ,and it's a rich mans paradise here but not so good for working class imo,but that i've traveled to many states in my youth where things were much cheaper as far as licenses go so i do remember a better sporting life ,oh and i realy like the bushcraft idea's of the UK am building some natural fork catty's now that i gathered the other day and i order'ed some @theraband gold banding from a local store so i will use the sling 's more on my walk's etc,sorry to go on on look forward to stoping by every night ..338winmag Quote Link to post Share on other sites
