rob284 1,682 Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Alway thought pest control meant killing animals and as its for shooting estates then a good fox is a dead fox can never get a decent answer on here. pest CONTROL, it about controlling the numbers, not making the number 0. if you want work for the dogs, shoot less, its obvious.

CorkyJohn 808 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 You're not a terrierman just a shooter who keeps terriers, its nearly March & you haven't had nothing to ground all season....much cheaper just to keep a few snares than terriers & less maintenance 1 Quote Link to post

morton 5,368 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Some lads shoot,some use terriers,shooting is easier and more effective,especially for the lads whose time is at a premium.I personally would never shoot or snare a fox,so what to some,each to their own.In reality fox,s will always be there for the lads who shoot and the lads with mutts,shooters make it less productive for some terriemen and it can be fecking pissy trailing about,checking spots that have been hammered with a bullet,we can sit and moan and put the world to right,then walk further and check spots the shooters miss,if possible?. 1 Quote Link to post
snizle06 202 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 That is true Morton. But some lads with rifles really take the piss shooting cubs and everything else all summer were there not even a problem. Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I don,t like shooting,especially youngsters,my mortgage or living is not dependant on it,for some it is,for the others that kill cubs and young for pleasure,plenty of terrier lads do the same,its wrong on so many levels.

Shooting is easier and more effective than with terriers but this lad comes on saying he has not got a dig for the terriers so far this season and then says he has shot 100 fox on the same ground and wants to get the couple that are left.I shoot aswell as dig,shotgun,rifle but unless there is a real problem fox doing me harm i will not resort to the gun,whats the point in keeping terriers if your goin to shoot every fox you see and as for diging cubs would not dream of it. 2 Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 fatman,the lads green,he,s possibly overcome with youthfull exuberance and the seasons tally,he may not yet have realised the consequences of his actions and next season will balance the gun and the terrier,hopefully.If not he is just another nugget with a terrier,blimey a gun to . 2 Quote Link to post
Al rounder 12 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 We as hunting men have the responsibility to respect our quarry. Every season after christmas we release every vixen we dig so they produce for seasons to come and year After year we have great seasons. Hope andybhoy learns from his mistakes. Quote Link to post
