What all this then? You can't be serious? Surely you're not calling time on that Puma White Hunter of yours after all these years? What would old Panshine say? Retiring the old trusty sword of justice................................... well I'll go to the foot of our stairs.

hope u guys just dont sit there and take it.. u can make a small issue a very big issue ever heard the saying, the squeaking wheel gets the most oil Thats been tried. It was tried for 5 years before the implementation of the Hunting Act 2004. All that happened was the squeak was ignored and they simply tighten the wheel nuts. Still not completely tight though.........and never will be!!... Just wait! They can if they want torque those wheel nuts down so tight it will make even your eyes bulge. That would certain tip you off that fence you've been sitting on for so long and b

Stu AFAIA There has been little or no change at Barons Down. I believe that the warden has intervened with the very worst Btb ridden deer and has shot them but I believe the number culled is a insignificant amount.TBH its been some time since I bothered to make enquiries. Being thoroughly hacked off with the situation as it was. Someone needs to look into it then do you not think? Do you know any stalkers who stalk close by or land owners who this is effecting? Stu Yes I firmly believe that it should be investigated. Whether it ever will or not, is another thing. Whethe

The cloth is similar but not the same. If you care to take a better look at the issue, you'll find that there is more to it than the RSPCA hierarchy being cut from similar cloth. All to often people are inclined to take a far to simplistic view of such matters where the potential for conflict and disagreement is great. In doing so they usually miss the really important issues.. Well done, another statement that skirts around the subject but you never actually make a point. You read too much Oscar Wilde. Pulling quotes from other people neither shows that you are intelligent or have

Stu As we both know once the name calling starts the argument is won. Doesn't take long does it. A few insightfull posts, a well presented and justifiable POV, and a large helping of fact. I wish all debates and discussion I have to get involved in were so easily won. I'd be able to spend even more of my time having fun if they were. Oh I am just sat here shaking my head its painfull . H can you not find something more to do I have got an excuse because I havent got any work in but at this time of year surely you should be run of your feet. Stu Early mornings and a w

Richie My apologises what previous reply? Having been a stalker for many years, I have found that most people understand the concept extremely well although they might not necessarily be familiar with the terminology used at times. As has been already discussed 99.999% of competently taken shots do result in instantaneous, immediate or rapid death. The debate on unethical and unjustifiable killing of deer has been well documented, widely debated, and should be clearly understood by anyone who has participated , had a long standing interest in or bothered to make themselves aware of tha

Now be a good boy or I will make you look even more of a dick then you already do, just as I have done to you on a few previous occasions Wif The only person you have ever succeed in making look a dick is yourself, and you make a fine job of it too. Its a pity that nothing else where you are concerned matches up to that one ability you have managed to master. I suggest that it is probably down to the old " a legend in his own imagination" syndrome that you clearly suffer from.

I had a family drop in the garden today....great pics!
gerfalcon replied to martin's topic in Deer Stalking & Management
You could try. But you need the actual head, not a photoshop edited photo. And here I was thinking you knew something about Muntjac Toss,It isn't photoshopped at all,it is however a ' M. vuquangensis'.........so,off you go and Google it!! LOL Like I said mate you'll need the actual head not some photoshop edited photo. As its restricted to Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. I doubt if it will ever show up in a urban garden in Somerset regardless of how much scrumpy gets drunk. -
Stu, As always a well thought out and reasonable reply but I have to take you up on a couple of things? What is classed as "cruel" or "suffering"?............I only ask because in lots of stalking accounts (yours included) it plainly states that a shot beast has run on for sometimes 100yds plus before dieing........would that not be classed as suffering or cruel seeing as it was not instant? As for poachers using guns and bows, well stalkers use guns and bow hunting is widesparead in the united states.......so who is the judge of the poacher or the bow hunters skill with rifle or bow?

A plastic drum and a set of shooting sticks work out a lot cheaper and weigh less. Just leave the drums dotted around your shoot and just carry your sticks means you never have to carry that hulking great tripod over your shoulder.

cracking news dismissing their campaigns director for a fraudulent expenses claim that must mean they will cancel all their campaigns against us and leave us alone then. Not a chance of that happening Dan. Louise Robertson who was Taylor's deputy for the last 2 years took over the role with immediate effect. the LACS have never been inclined to let any adversity stand in their way. They're not ones to let being wrong get in they're way either. Such is the nature of the beast.

From what I can tell its mainly aimed at the illegal down load and file sharing sites. With an additional kick in the pants for the search engine providers and anyone with a financial transaction connection with the rogue web sites. Given that the US media industry alone is loosing billions of dollars to such sites. Its not surprising that they are looking for ways of closing off the escape routes and getting some of their lost revenue back.

Oh, I realise we are in no way unique. Privilege, access, and opportunity being what they are following the social revolution of the 60's.

Never needed a thesaurus. I received a decent education. I did win tickets to the England v Ireland 6 Nations Rugby match but can't go so I given them away to some friends.

You have as much chance of the Hunting Act 2004 being repealed or amended as there is of there ever being a frosty morning in hell. This government has far bigger issues on its hands, and no subsequent government is ever going to devote the amount of debate time necessary to such an unimportant political issue. Don't forget there are plans already on the political calendar to replace the existing Wildlife and Countryside, Conservation Act as well as the Wild Mammals Protection Act along with several other interrelated pieces of legislation. They will effectively address the existing

Don't you worry about what i get for free or my contacts petal P.S. Did say i bought it? Perhaps it simple fell over dead, having been chased around for 5 minutes by some skinny dog, and was delivered into your possession Im sure you can imagine it, you imagine a lot Rest assured I am not the one with the over active imagination. I prefer to stick with the facts and the indisputable evidence. That way when the win comes along it sticks.

What, no free copies for you then Simon? You obviously don't have the right contacts or speak the right words.
