Ferret Finders

[ferret_uk 4]

oryt lads just wondering if you have any ideas where would be the best place to get a decent ferret finder and the best one about these days

[richie 1]

i think youre asking the " million dollar " question. youll probably get about a dozen different replies. what works for one wont work for another. i personally get on great with the mk3 ferret finder but never got on well with the mk1. the only thing i would do with the mk3 collars are upgrade them to the leather straps...

Stops choking the poor wee feckers with the MK 3 collar, to make it stay on

they are just a bit to wide

[richie 1]

there that wide you might aswell stick a toilet roll round the f****** neck. take my word on this. if you use the basic collar you have the risk of it coming off under ground....

Just got a mk3 the other day and tried it out the other morning pretty easy too use the only problem the collars. You have to put them on really tight other wise they will come off. Think i will change the straps to leather aswell.

Are'nt they only just as wide as the actual collar component ? . Wider usually means more comfortable for an animal .

There crap cheif, you have to do the collar up so bloomin tight that its would be far less comfortable.

 

Better of with teh leath collars on them, I changed all mine to it but then I used the leather on my catapults

thanks for all the help lads and i might try that with my collars

It does seem rather as lot of money to fork out if the collars have to be butchered

[richie 1]

butchered ? all that needs to be done is for the old straps to be slid out and a small amount plastic to be scraped away for the leather straps to be slid through... takes five minutes.

Well when you buy one of these things surely you dont expect to have to modify it ? , its brand new for gods sake not summat from a car boot

i'm dreading the day my old mark 1 collars and box give up the ghost.on the velcro thing,might be worth a try with the mk 3,the mk 1 collar being attached to the receiver if you tried it and didn't like it you've f****d a good collar.
