mark williams 7,549 Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Forgive me lads but here`s an FAC conker throw i thought you might like to see. Overhand throw and lased at 38 yards. After much practice, conkers are extremely accurate. atb Mark. 2 6 Quote Link to post
Meece 1,957 Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Were the CONKERS subs or HV conkers ? 1 Quote Link to post
Alsone 789 Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Careful, the left will be having them licenced next. It's no wonder they took them out of schools, playgrounds were littered with squirrels and magpies, was a right job for the cleaning staff. 2 Quote Link to post

Underdog 2,337 Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Have you a provision for expanding conkers on your ticket? Quote Link to post
Baldcoot 2,352 Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Alledgedly ,if your mentored on Hazlenuts for a year you can get an open ticket for conkers on application with 2 dead magpies or 3 squirrels 1 2 Quote Link to post

shovel leaner 7,648 Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 After reading the post I thought no way !!! So I conducted a bit of an experiment. I practiced on a few targets and got my eye in . After some favourable results I decided to try for a couple of foxes. I set up my icotec 350 with the pheasant distress and it wasn’t long before Charlie showed up . A simple overarm sent him to the afterlife . I thought this is too easy so I picked up a HV acorn. I drove around for a bit and saw Charlie in the distance , a couple of squeaks stopped him in his tracks , this time an underarm curler dropped him at 100 meters . As you can see the damage from the HV acorn was devastating. 1 4 Quote Link to post

Underdog 2,337 Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 As soon as I get chance I demonstrate the need for urgent knee jerk legislation by loading an acorn into one of my front loaders! That is if the squirrels don't eat them all first! 2 Quote Link to post
