Ideation 8,216 Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Had a few hours hunting tree rats with the pack, (and gun obviously). An enjoyable way to spend some time in the woods in the off season, and keeps the dogs entertained. Anyone else do much? 5 Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Keeps the mutts occupied until the leaf cover,terriers whizzing around and marking occupied trees,lurchers running about watching the canopy for movement.Rids the countryside of a few tree rats and aids the songbirds breeding cycle.Preserve wildlife and kill a Squirrel,as long as its grey.

Born Hunter 17,788 Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Got a few places we can chase a few but on the shoot I kinda piss on my own chips by relentlessly killing them year round. I couldn't find a drey now if I tried. Dogs love it mind, the lurcher's a real natural. Quote Link to post
