    I have just swapped this for the Deben LED Ray. £55.00. Anyone got one of these? It's very similar to the SMK but feels like a better quality unit. Hope it holds out.

    Thanks buddy. The forum has changed alot! For the better I may add.

    I purchased one of these SMK LED lights today for £39.99 to mount on my scope. I was well chuffed. Tried it out tonight and it says 100m range on the box, and it was about right. Really bright and very compact little unit. However after about the third time of switching it on it died. Completely dead. Batteries meant to last 7 hours. Anyone else had any experience with one of these? I'm hoping it was just a dodgy set of batteries but I doubt it. Cheers, Gaz.

    Hello All, I don't know if anyone will remember me. I have been a member for a long time but not been on for ages. For those who don't know me I am 21 years old from the midlands. I have always been interested in lurchers, bull breeds and my air rifles. Aswell as most other field sports. I have had the most mental last 12 months ever! Become a Dad 8 months ago to my growing baby Girl. Moved house. Helped parents move house, finally got themselves a farm with 5 acres of bunny ridden fields. Then almost lost my whole family in a house fire at the farm house. Started

    Ah okay chief. Just thought id make sure you knew. Its best not to go saying things like that really fella, antis could come on here and if they saw that then they would think that people on the forum had been coursing hares, which obviously since the ban, nobody has. Gaz

    Foxy Jo - Coursing Hares is illegal now mate, since Feb 2005.

    Cheers Kev, Looks like hes loving that! Where do you get Pigs Heads from? Will Butchers/Abetoire just throw them out? Gaz

    How is that pup in the first pic bred? He is a cracker. All nice dogs though, and great pics. Gaz

    How is that pup bred mate? Thanks Gaz

    Thats a nice dog mate. I like the ones that throw to greyhound, and i like the 1/4 Collie 3/4 Greys. Im also interested in the Collie/Grey x Bull/Grey, i think one of these would make a useful dog, and the ones ive seen have been lookers. Thanks Gaz

    Echo whats said above mate. Dont tell them you work your dogs at all. They are pets. If they were injured working then you were out walking through a field :-)

    I apprereciate that some fisherman are of the attitude that "fishing will never get banned, there are too many fishermen, f**k the hunters" and are selfish cnuts! But still, this doesnt mean dog men should be the same. The thing for fishermen is that when hunting does get completelty outruled then fishing WILL be next, like it or not. I say again, we must all stick together. Im not saying it will help any of us, if they are gonna ban then they will ban, but slating one another only gives them ammunition. Gaz
  13. Gaz_1989
    I think ALL fieldsports need to stick together. If they ban one, then they will soon ban more. I am a carp fisherman, and shoot with air rifle, and hunt with dogs. I hate it when i here people from one group slating another. If you lads are slating carp fishing, then you are only helping antis ban it, and if they ban carp fishing, what chance have lads hunting quarry with dogs/air rifles/hawks or whatever it is got?

    Thats a cracking looking dog mate. Looks really handy. Cheers Gaz

    What an absoloute load of wank. These articles piss me off soooo much! How long have fish been caught for sport? Thousands of years? It was proved years ago that they cant feel the pain of a hook in there lip and that they cant remember getting caught. So why has it changed now? Gaz
  16. Gaz_1989
    Your right in what your saying yes, every dog is different. But you CAN generalise. Yes there will be exceptions, but it would give a rough idea. Gaz

    Cheers mate, hope he turns out good for you!
  18. Gaz_1989
    Cheers fella, Thats a gorgeous pup. How is it bred? Gaz
  19. Gaz_1989
    You wont really get an answer to your question. Any lurcher can potentially be a good all rounder really. Its hard to say 'what is the best rabbit dog'. It depends what ground your running it on, how your working it, etc. My Beddy/Whip is OK all round, not amazing, but you get out of a dog what you put into it, mine hasnt had THAT much time spent on it and i brought it as an older dog, not a pup. I am looking at Bull/Grey x Collie/Grey next i think, or maybe just a nice collie/grey. I have seen Bull/Greyhounds take bunnys no problem. Gaz

    Thanks very much to everyone who has put a pic up. There are some cracking looking dogs up there, and they all sound like decent dogs. Is there much advantage to having 3/4 grey 1/4 collie, or 5/8 grey 3/8 collie? Is it all just personal preference? Are the 1st crosses preferred by most? Thanks Gaz
  21. Gaz_1989
    Thanks for the replies folks. These should help me pursuade. Kill um - Is that a first cross? Also what the temperaments like, not just as workers, but around the house? Do they sway towards the hypo-activeness of the collie or are they more chilled out like the greyhound? Thanks Gaz
  22. Gaz_1989
    Has anyone got any pics of a smooth coated collie x greyhound? Dont mind if its 3/4 cross, or even if there is a bit of whippet in there. Just want some decent pics to show the missus, im having a battle talking her round to letting me get another dog soon, she is insistant that 'all lurchers are ugly' so i want some pics of nice lookers to prove her wrong, and its likely to be a collie/grey or bull/collie/grey that i get next. Thanks Gaz
  23. Gaz_1989
    Cheers mate, will let you know. Im not sure what pup to get yet. Something bigger than my beddy/whip. Ive considered Collie/Grey x Bull/Grey, Also looking at Deerhound/Collie/Grey x Saluki/Bull/Grey. Im pretty open minded really though, It wont be for about 12 months, weve just had our first baby so want her to settle in for 12 months or so before getting a pup. Gaz
  24. Gaz_1989
    Thanks alot mate, thats given me a better idea. Gonna get my beddy/whip onto BARF this weekend and then its just wait until the time comes to get a pup :-) Thanks Gaz
