falcongit 242 Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 hi,i went out for a walk this morning,very frosty and cold but clears your head,took my rifle with me and set of round the headland,dident see anything apart from car tracks going across the rape field someone doing something they shouldent be doing on my brother in laws land damaging crops with no care for anyones property,i followed,the tracks and they had done a full circle in the field and then stopped at the edge of the dyke,i got down in the dyke and found a fox with its guts ripped out i wonder how long that fox was suffering for before it died,it must have happend in the eary hours as there was the tell tale of some rags with bright red blood on them,theres some t-ssers out there,i rang my brother in law up to let him no so they can keep an eye out in the future,we had hare corsers last year but sent them packing thank god its the dammage they do to the land and crops.... cheers symon Quote Link to post
BEARINATOR 2,867 Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 happens all over falcon, but if dogs took the fox, then trust me it wouldn't of suffered long [almost instant with decent dogs], the damage would of been done by 2 dogs pulling opposite ways which is why I hate running doubled up 1 Quote Link to post
shootlodge 145 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Sound like ya need to get out more, if ya was seen about the lossers would go straight past & bother some other place, the foxing ain't a bad thing, done right. Its the crop damage that ruins it for everyone in the sport . Quote Link to post

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 It is fools like this who ruin it for hunters like us, you give a farmer a few mashed fields and soon nobody is able to go on any of his land! Quote Link to post

rossi_j 99 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Walk the land, if nobody knows you have been, whats the harm. Driving thru crops is takin the piss imo, stubble o.k a bit cheeky, but no harm. nail boards in gate ways to fields with crop just be careful about taking drastic measures or it may turn into a tit for tat, maybe a couple of local keen young lads who could do with a bit of permision could keep an eye out for you, just a thaught Quote Link to post

robwelsh 354 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 i got declined permission, my old mans mates family owns farms etc, and he asked his uncle about me nd my old man to have it for lurcher work , and shooting, and he refused us as he had trouble with "lurcher boys" as he said it ,..a few months ago, and hes going to do everything in his power to stop people on his land...so all of this for just not asking?...i wasnt amused because if this hadnt happend, there wouldnt of been a problem but hes in his 60s and just doesnt want the aggro..so its fair enough i guess! :/ Quote Link to post
