mackem 26,439 Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 10.000 a year is 192 a week,,, thats 52 weeks a year Reminds me of the computation Plummer once did in a shooting news article showing how many rabbits would need to be caught to pay off a profit hunters average sized mortgage,I think in the same article he mentioned the large numbers caught by an itinerant scottish forestry worker called Lakin or larkin Quote Link to post

Did Trigger not say, 7 nights a week if only taking in the 20's, and might have a night or 2 off in the week if doing 30's, 40's, 50, 60's. Even if you were doing low 20's 7 nights a week you would do over 5000 between september and march. Just doing the maths. Quote Link to post

I think many a people who are out alot can do that. just from your pup night that's over the weekly quota you would need, but 10000 that's average of 27 a night, every night for the whole year that is some challenge Quote Link to post
