Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 This is a question that I was asked some tme ago, what is the meaning of "A good Hunter". Is it a person who has all the mod cons and spends mad money on a dog just to have the best on the market, a flash in the pan type guy. Or is it the guy who has spent years learning this trade and will always ensure that the first sod turned turned is the last one laid. What makes a good hunter. Quote Link to post
heart of wales 19 Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 This is a question that I was asked some tme ago, what is the meaning of "A good Hunter".

Or is it the guy who has spent years learning this trade and will always ensure that the first sod turned turned is the last one laid. What makes a good hunter. In my opinion a good hunter is someone 1) who leaves the land as he finds it 2) Catches what he is hunting 3) Does not exagerate his catch 4) Treats his quarry with the respect it deserves 5) Is willing to teach youngsters the tricks of his trade And last but not least f cking hates Tony Blair Quote Link to post

Paid 935 Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 For me, its someone who uses what they catch, repsects there animals and quarry and who see's the sport aspect as a happy bonus, and not the sole reason. Quote Link to post

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Obviously, the hall mark of Any True Hunter is that he should have read every word the Great Brian Plummer ever wrote, and should dedicate his life to emmulation of that Paragon of a man. Yes. I could go on. But I won't. Black Bob's already beaten me to the best craic! Fox and mole? I know a man who has genuinely sampled each. Fox absolutely disgusted him. Mole left him completely speechless! If I ever meet the guy again, I really must ask him if he's ever got round to road kill badger yet Quote Link to post
