I've been very quiet on the Greys so far this year, isn't it always the way...I have someone desperate for 2 from me for the table and I've hardly even seen one for about a month!!

They always seem to vanish at this time of the year.

Six this morning! First chance I've had for a long time to have a go at them.

 

Tagged along with a keeper friend who said they'd got problems with them in one wood. Got all six within the first 15 mins, then two more hours and one missed rabbit later, it was time to go.

 

Cheers.

Far better eating than rabbits in my view, provided you can get past the tree rats bit?? By the way the Canadians love'em

Its much better than rabbit, shame theres not much meat on one, you need 5-6 for a good meal

So a big fat zero for me!

They went to feed my keeper mate's ferrets.

 

Tried squidders a long time ago myself but what a faff! I've never skinned anything so tough and the meat was mostly sinue. If I'm honest though, I'm a crap cook!

 

Cheers.

I used an HW90 for mine. Airguns have their uses for such things.
