What is the general sort of times you guys and gals go lamping?

I generally leave around 8pm, (before the clocks went back) and get to the fields around 8:30-9pm by the time I pick a friend or 2 up. Because there is 2-3 dogs and we all want a few runs I get home about 12-1 am.

My wife thinks that it is too late and that if I do it like her dad used to 25-30 yrs ago I can go at dusk (7pm) and be home by 10pm at the latest!!

 

Just like a few of your views on this please.

 

 

lol grow a set, who cares wat her da done . go out when its dark and tell her u will be home when ur home.

If im not working the following day, i like to head out about 11. If i am working, then i have to get out soon as its dark enough, and hopefully be tucked up in bed by 1AM

[bird 9,858]

norm 11 30 -12pm, back just before its light. If with permission go early back 12pm

[Guest it's all my land after 12]

The time we set out is according to how far we are travelling for our lamping, we never start lamping until " AFTER 12 " cos "ITS ALL MY LAND"

from then, again getting home depends how far we have travelled, but we rarely finish lamping until dawn or farmers lights start coming on ! !

11ish till dawn the wife dont come in to it dogs first lol!!!

I like to go after 12 dont have to travel far can lamp rabbits from my door step!! Then its around my own land for 2-3 hrs.

The birds are always singing when i get into bed. Still i prefer the birds to the owl that has set up camp this year in an oak tree 20 feet from bedroom window!!

[foxlamper80 28]

about 12 are 1 so the farmers are in bed get home at 1st light

I go what time I want as often as I want, I was just asking for other peoples views on lamping times...

 

But my aim is to be as manly as you 1 day, you sound like a mans man :sick:
