If your gullible enough to buy two staffs from abroad then you will get talked into anything .A quad is a must as is top of the range clothing .

3 pages on necessary kit and I'm delighted to see that no one has said you need a good finding bar.

Only one came from abroad

 

I don't mind good kit, whats the point in anyone working their arses off if they're not gonna enjoy the fruits of their labour?

 

I bought one of those isotex 5000 today on eBay based on recommendations. I'm still holding out on the boots just yet

[Dead Eyes 681]

I'm pleased with what I've got

 

A couple can tell you if it's from good stock or not

 

There's a couple more on here that saw the bitch, and while it may or may not fit down a hole you can ask them if they *thought* (and that's all it could be at the moment) it will be capable of doing a job

Neil ,can you explain the importance of a finding bar .Never owned one ,never will but I know lads who won't leave home without one.

A finding bar probably became less important with the introduction of technology(box and collar), but was a vital tool in its day, ferreting and terriers, I still bring it and use it occasionally, I was brought up using it and old habits die hard.

[Dead Eyes 681]

Listen, I give far more shit out than I get back so I'm overdue a bit!

[Squirrel_Basher 17,100]

I well remember pre locator but struggle to see what it brings to a dig today

[Dead Eyes 681]

I won't need one, thanks anyway. My useless shits will walk out anyway

[pablo esc 1,598]

Need a bar on digs.when don't bring it find could done with it.its a safe tool for breaking threw ' finding and shifting rocks etc

Neil ,can you explain the importance of a finding bar .Never owned one ,never will but I know lads who won't leave home without one.

I brought up the subject on finding bars to try and start an arguement, LOL.

I hate the bloody things..................and I own 3. They're the most over rated ,over used tools.

I argued against them on a topic on here before and it looked like I was the only who doesn't use one.

Lads spend a small fortune on a locator and then sink a bar hole to be sure to be sure. Very silly.

[pablo esc 1,598]

Why? Not if the use it properly and listen to the dog or thumping

[Rabbit Hunter 6,613]

Do you mean sink a bar hole to break through to a tube Neil? I think thats a stupid idea also. It fires the game up and gives the dog unnecessary greif whilst youre digging IMO.

[Mary 352]

Not that stupid to have one in your kit if box or collar fail, (technology has a tendency to fail now and then), or you could do like some on here and let a 2nd dog in, I'd prefer the bar.
