lapin2008 1,587 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Suppose started trying to snare stuff very early maybe 8-10 never had much guidance on it so never caught much, about 10-12 i think I started with the ferrets and got an air rifle when I was 13/14 i think. The first time my own kids went ferreting was when they were 2 and 4 1 Quote Link to post

I met a guy with lurchers on the IFF forum of all places after going out with him and his dogs and Harris hawk, I had to get me one (dog). Shes six now and a bit beat up through injuries so shes chilling out and ill be after a pup... as soon as iv sorted out living arrangements, for me and the dog Quote Link to post
