Mo, my father never took me as a kid, his best friend and labourer did, from as far back as I can remember ( about 5 or 6 I reckon) we went, hunting, fishing, bird nesting he showed me the lot. He died last year aged 57 and it was like losing a Dad, anyone who invests that much time into you from such a young age has a lasting effect on you. When my son was born he put in the local paper a congrtulations with a note saying how he was going to teach him to fish, hunt etc...... unfortunately he only came out once with my son as he was ill by the time my son was old enough, I made sure we had 1

It was an early start yesterday, Micky had suggested going to a nice bit of land down his way he had been out with the air rifle the evening before and had 8 and said there was a few about.

First stop a hedge between a horse paddock and a big arable field, the jrt marked well so we set purse nets in the runs and on the most accesible holes and set stop nets along the hedge. 3 ferrets in and quick ru

the ability of the bull x as a alrounder
NEWKID replied to milliken's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
The lad I walk out with has a bull x, a big lump at that, recall excellent, retrieve rabbits straight to hand his size means he ain't going to turn on a sixpence but his tenacity makes up for it if a rabbit does make the hedge they better be in the hole cause he ain't stopping. There's a lot of strings to his bow comes ferreting too doesn't mess the nets, marks and is generally always well behaved. He puts the time in though 3/4 nights a week out and up 5 30 every morning. But he pulls like f$ck on the slip, can't have everything..... -
Sowhat: your bitch has come on well mate good luck this season with her.... My opinion I got mine for rabbiting ( she's the litter sister to troters) I was getting back into it after a while out and it was a x Id fancied for a while. A mate had one years ago and it was a good little rabbiting dog I had a whippet x as a kid who was bright and constant companion I didn't want a first x and waited for a 3/4 1/4 whip bed to turn up. She's turned into a capable rabbiting dog, she's stock broken works with the ferrets well and catches on the lamp. Took her a while to develop and I'd say at t
