just hunt 69 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 When I started working terriers first tongs were widely used. One thing I always noticed was that it was usually cowardly fools who had them and they can allow for severe cruelty. Thank god they're a thing of the past. While I agree that when quarry is to be dispatched then a firearm should be used as quickly as possible. But not all quarry dug gets dispatched and sometimes it has to be handled before being released. IMO if you wont or can't handle quarry then you are not up to scratch as a terrier man. Handling game is part of the job / sport. just seen this thread on the forum and before i even open it up i said to myself i bet that cock conney replies to this the great whitE hunter theres nothing that this man does know about hunting of hound terriers wheatens bull he knows it all i am really looking forward to his book cos trust me this boy loves himself that much there will be one on the shelf COCK who the feck are you to tell anyone there not up to scratch to be a terrierman would it not suit you better if you disagreed and kept it to your self instead of coming on here spoffing your ego is getting the better of you son Oh my god ,you seem to be annoyed with Mr Cooney ,didn,t know he has a book coming out . Got a couple of signed ones on pre-order. I wonder what the name of the book will beCan anyone guess Quote Link to post
vduben 55 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 just curious how you guy handle your game, ive read stuff about lads on here getting them out the hole after breaking through.. not my thing really Similar thread for you Vduben. Page 2 on that thread is a photo, & the question is asked what/how do you do, my answer would be rewind...... and dig a hole with a bit more room to manouvere. I am a novice myself so no pearls of wisdom from me apart from put your bullshit filter on a high setting when asking on here, some will take the time to reply without actually saying anything, reason being they want to give the impression they have a clue, but by being vague they are hiding the fact that they actually dont. Just to add, I/ve use/d all methods I can think off, tail em, tong em, scruff em, shoot em, net em, noose em, draw em. Removing the quarry from the dig with your hands is the ideal for me. Just got to be bold, & remember "fortune favours the brave" 'fortes fortuna adiuvat' 1 Quote Link to post
