calling in hares.

[borntoshoot 1]

Hi guys . Reason for posting is because all the lads at college doing gamekeeping dont believe me that its possible to squeek/call in hares I have seen it done with my own eyes by my mate who i shoot with fairly regularly.

 

Has anyone on here heard of this or tried this before and did it work?

the old ways of the poacher vol 1 by the warrener, the bloke who uses the catty is a gypsy and a cracking shot, he can hit and kill more game with a catty than he can with a 410 shotgun, well worth a watch lads.
