Rabbithunter 456 Posted March 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 What recovery gear do you take out? I have a hi lift, and. A shovel, thats it. But after a few sticky situations recently, got me thinking, perhaps should take sand ladders, etc... Or how about sand bags. To get under the wheels when jacked up? Was well bellied out, and got the back end lifted, but just couldnt get the ruts full enough, theres never a pile of rocks when tou need them take it the farmers land looked well. better with a pair of muck boots and a slip lead I wouldnt worry about it mate I didnt For me, if walking, its a set of £10 dunlops & dog working off the slip Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 The problem with 4x4 lamping is its now considered the only form of lamping where the police are concerned. You can't exactly do it discretely can you. Me and some lads were out walking the dogs recently on a public footpath and got stopped by old bill and RSPCA. We weren't caught hunting and didnt have a 4x4 or off road vehicle. This was the news paper article... Quote Link to post
Polkey 70 Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 I would love to have a crack at it, looks a lot of fun Quote Link to post
BS40liam 203 Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Was out last night lamping in the 4x4 beats walking! Well it's nice because we were on permission, if it hasn't of been permission then the jeep would of been parked up the lane and I would have been walking, much more descrete. ? Quote Link to post

Never been a fan of running dogs from a car but runninng them on rabbits from a car is asking for a serious injury. Quote Link to post

jf1970 328 Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 each to their own, but one of the best things for me is getting out with the mutts and walking the countryside. Even if they don't catch much at least they are still exercised. Quote Link to post
