Has Anyone Heard Of This Way


Recommended Posts

I was reading this book about hunting before guns and when it came to sighounds one way they did was to set up over a food source or a watering hole and let the hounds loose as the game came in as anyone heard of this or did it and how well would it work

I once read a book similar to yours, bout a Welsh bloke who lamped a whole load of foxes as they came to feed on a farm midden pile. Nailed 3 or 4 most night's, so the book said. In the snow too. The action must have been fast and furious as he was rarely photographed wearing a coat. Though it must have been cold, them foxes looked stiff as boards. All done with a 'ol mottled marked cur cross. If I could just remember that books title.... :hmm:

:laugh:

Two foot of snow and he in his slippers, the start of a legacy.

I suppose it sort of could work, i've been out lamping and come across them feeding on dead sheep etc.

 

Also, I used to throw all of the dead poults in the same field every day (for another purpose) and at night would often see them mooching across it.

 

And I guess if you lived in a real hot country, perhaps a watering point wouldn't be a bad place to stake out, pre lamping???
