Jarvis 277 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) I have made my own carrier. i find when them carriers are full holding 12 - 15 rabbits it really digs into your shoulder so I've made one with a wide strap. I would upload a picture if I knew how to... :/ Edited September 10, 2013 by Jarvis Quote Link to post
Jarvis 277 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Here's the pics...

TOMO 24,993 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Jarvis if I was you I would shorten the bits of string,,, as the rabbits feet are going to be half way down your front and back,, carrying numbers of rabbits is easier , if there higher on your shoulders. The string only needs to be long enough to make loop to go over the rabbits hock. Other than that the look just the job 1 Quote Link to post
Jarvis 277 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Cheers TOMO, I had thought that, so I used straps which are adjustable so I can alter them to whatever length is most comfortable. 1 Quote Link to post

The ones i make have one continuous loop of cord through...works out around 14/15 feet of cord...per carrier..... which is Great in an emergency..... Even towed a lanny with 2 lengths the other day Made this for lab...early on in the year... With 'fancy pheasant carrying' in mind ... 1 Quote Link to post

rabbitcatcher 1 287 Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I've used several carriers over the years and must say BPR,s are the best so far strong bright and reasonably comfortable Never leave home without 1 now Atb rc1 Quote Link to post

I personally do think mine are the best... or i wouldnt sell them...and have faith in them... Theyre bright...so you dont lose them....hold most small game....not just rabbits... Wont rot...or weather.... Fold up into your pocket... If they get manky... just hand wash them.... or jetwash.... And in an emergency... youve got 15ft of cord to use.... Cheers lads ...
