    hoods

    well started a few hoods for billy today ,once i have got them on the blocks ill take some pics tomoz ,watch this space lol its been about 2 yrs since making some hoods and hope its another 2 yrs as its cripples my back sat there but its a favour for billy ( keep the faith billy as david know thes truth lmfao )
  6. u put bird feed today on fist so took that as first time it fed on fist
  7. 7 days before feeding ?? what was fat weight and weight when it fed
  8. if i can give u some advice hood at the begining mate if u talk to billy ask him also what he thinks now cos he never hooded at the early stages it will make ur life so easy mate trust me ,jasper is a huge fan also of doing it at the beginging it that helps u out mate
  9. its worth paying for the land if its got alot or quarry on ,
  10. shello just a pointer on ur box mate ,the box is designed to be a giant hood so having holes in the bottom its right but u want to make it so no light is getting in otherwise ur box is just a box and not a giant hood as its ment for mate,are you going to hood ur bird mate ? been having some great chats on the phone with billy (saxonmaster) and he now understands the benifits first hand of not hooding his bird early on in the manning process . immeeting up with him next week as im down that was and im going out with him ect ps,bring your bird home in a cardboiard box mate not the wooden o
  11. as i said .knock on the farms,people should get about 5,000 acres if they want to fly a bird proper as the amount of people these days that gt a bird with a tiny bit of land and think its enough ,u can empty a small piece of land so quick and then have no where to hunt it ,if people want slips where the rabbit are out this is more so as one slip on a small patch and all the bunnys will go to ground ect , people need to put in the leg work and even do something for the farm as why should he give someone he dont know permision to his land,if you can find some land that is premier its even wort
  12. try nocking on farms ,thats the best way and only way in my eyes fella.u get what u put in regarding getting land and its very unlikely ur going to get someone to share there land with someone they dont know ,
  13. you can always fly a hawk on the lamp at night this way u can get out most nights
  14. did u not think it be better getting the permision first and did ur mentor not tell u that ????
  15. name ans shame pj so hopefully no one else gets ripped of ,if the guy has an answer to it then let him voice it on her if he come on here .
