    A couple of hours on the crows, 46 shot 14 picked as the keep out of my f*cking barely rule still stands?
  2. Stavross
    Lovely job, the crows will keep for another day ?
  3. Stavross
    Thanks for that, it makes perfect sense, on the odd occasion I get to go hare shooting I use a 35g 5’s and when you hit them you stop them, this was the last young one I shot with the shotgun using a mini mag and although it’s only small it did run on a bit

    I with you on that, been from Yorkshire I’m about 50% tea ?

    U. Can I pick your brains, not being much of a shot gun shooter I’ve always used heavier shells for fox, I tend to use 40g 3’s mini mags or 50g BB Winnie’s, is there any benefit using a lighter load or does it just come down to pattern, if this is a stupid question tell me I’m an idiot ?

    I subbie for catterick barracks working with the mobiles ( transport) and these young lads and lasses know how to graft, all it takes is for someone higher up the chain to say this is what needs doing and it gets done

    Lovely job, and back in time to put your feet up and have a beer ?
  8. Stavross
    That just sounds like some bullsh*t the RSPB would come out with

    I don’t know what it’s like over that way but in the dales over here the army use the moor and when my nephew was based at layburn and fires happened if they were needed they were sent out

    I feel sorry for the fire crews and the locals that are out 24/7 doing there best to stop the spread, they asked for help from the army and around 100 were sent out, there is a massive army base at catterick and layburn stuffed with young lads they should be at the disposal of the fire crews

    A lad I know has sheep up there just down from the moor, he said the first fire has been blamed on a discarded cigarette, if this isn’t an advert for the full game management of moorland I don’t know what is, there needs to be controlled burning to create fire barriers, so if some little dickhead decides to have a fire it’s easier to control and hopefully will not go on to devastate a massive part of the moor

    Nice work, that’s looks to be a good size vixen, it’s obviously been living the high life on good quality chicken ?

    Cheers buddy, hopefully going to get a full day at them on Wednesday, so we’ll see what that brings, might not get a bag full but I bet I’ll scare the sh*t out of them ?

    It serves him right, nothing worse than people sticking there nose into something they know nothing about, if he doesn’t like how the countryside works then why move there a few years ago I used to do work for taxi lads and they were buggers for not paying so our favourite trick was to pull a door card off and put tuna in the door also milk in the carpet under the seat does the job ?
  15. Stavross
    That will teach the greedy little bugger ?
  16. Stavross
    That is unbelievable, what a days sport, ??????

    I still have the old lightforce lamp that now only gets used with the dogs due to how wide the beam is, everything else I use the torches, I ended up getting one after a night out with a lad who worked for nightmaster and couldn’t believe how good they were, so bit the bullet and splashed the cash ?

    Can’t fault 3 in a couple of hours, an evening well spent ?

    So, I’ve been doing a bit work on the farm and the lad said how do I fancy knocking off early to go up to the other farm as the crows are hammering the barley, this may of been a polite way of saying clock off and go and help me out for free? so off I went, not the farmers million’s but still a few about, only managed 16 in an hour or so and rapped in because of the heat, only picked the 3 that landed at my feet as his words were keep out of my f*cking crop

    A day dreams are made of, one you will remember for the rest of your life ?

    For the money, vortex viper HS LR 4 - 16x50, in my opinion vortex optics are on par and in some cases better the scopes twice the price, the warranty is also very good ?
  22. Stavross
    Nice work, one less to worry about, the years just seem to fly by now, I’m sure I can remember a time when I had nothing to do over the summer apart form drink beer and enjoy the good weather or maybe I just had more time before my lovely wife came along
  23. Stavross
    That’s something we don’t have any trouble with, the biggest problem we have with the ground nesting birds is badgers, we have far more of them than foxes but there’s not much we can do about that ?
  24. Stavross
    We are the same on the shoot, there’s always a few about but luckily the shoot next door hammers them and comes onto mine as well to help out, it was a bit of a bumper year last year with him taking 16 over the two bits of land a me taking 7 off ours, they have just done a lovely long bit of set aside that’s going to be my game cover so with any luck I’ll be able to draw a couple into this before the birds go in
  25. Stavross
    I’ve had a hair cut and been out on my peddle bike for the last week, so we will see who gets the invite into the hot tub ?
