Afternoon walk.

[Mr Wilkes 2,914]

Out with the pup later than usual ( watching yesterday’s ufc this morning). He put two squirrels into a hole in the base of a tree so I waited there and sent him to hunt out the wood, I could see him getting closer dancing round trees ect and looking up for the squirrel. Eventually it came close enough for a shot and down it came .

Is this a Joey J5 catty?

Great shooting mate?

[Mr Wilkes 2,914]

Yes pal, nice little thing to shoot.

Spot on mate. I'm looking at getting one, just to keep in my coat when I'm doing rounds at work; can you recommend a pocket size decent cat for beginners?

I would recommend the scout mate easy to change the bands and are pretty well made.

Another vote for the scout mate offers the use of all the different band types and hand holds, when you find out which bands or type of grip you prefer you can purchase something a bit more specific, but for a starter catty it’s top notch

Yes mate they have gone up a fiver though since i bought mine. I have found it easy to change the band's with a one pence piece if you carry a spare band wile out and about . Their is some cheaper frames on eBay with the same method of changing bands but you need an alum key.

Is bigger better? (Hope not; taken me years to convince the missus!!)

[Mr Wilkes 2,914]

No mate.... it’s how you use it that counts

Nothing wrong with either, the LT fits in the pocket better that’s all.
