I've got 2 pairs, the oldest must be 20 years old now, there a tad rough looking now but OK. Used round the garden. My best pair bought off here ages ago, new as far as I could tell..also have a pair of Chiruca 10inch Boa for the really wet days. Scarpa have always been my 1st choice.

Again lol.

If we don't do anything we accept what we get. I'm happy just trying. You will never prevent the scrtote type but there's a couple that walks their dogs that may think twice. Probably more so after they hear a rifle shot. 👍 We'll have to wait and see.

Every piece of glass has an effect on clarity when compared to the naked eye. What matters is the quality of glass and coating. It's all about work involved creating the end product. Hence cost generally gives better clarity. Compare cheap camera lenses costing £50 to similar lenses costing £10,000 . So answering your question, yes it will make a difference. How much depends on your window glazing and your binoculars.

Need more info really. Nets. Curtains. Blinds. Shutters. Day. Night. Just trying to help. 😃

The thing was, even with 2 of us spotting deer with thermal, neither of us saw him, it was like he was dropped in by helicopter.

I once pulled up the truck having seen a munty go into a wheat field. Got the rifle on the sticks and waited, as expected 5 or so minutes it came out about 70yds and cleanly shot. What I hadn't noticed a cyclists had waited till for me to take the shot. He was behind me, he stopped had a chat, he told me he didn't want to spook the deer so kept back. Nice chap, there not all weirdos 😆

Ooops. No a random bloke appeared from nowhere.

Do nothing or do something. Either way you can't win. I'm trying 👌 that's enough for me. But 1 thing is I can now tell wondering walkers to get back on the footpath. Shot a munty a while ago, got down from my seat and in less than 2 mins he was stood at the bottom of the seat looking up. I didn't see him a mate did in another seat.

Nailed it.

I've got some 900mm cable ties but I'll need 3 + . I'm going to screw them up with a decent hammer after a cup of tea. Thanks for the suggestions 😀.

I would go Guinea fowl or Partridge, Guinea fowl being 1st choice, and of course there's quail they are nice too and only 15- 20 minutes in the oven.

I'll be long gone by the time that happens. I caught a nail or piece of barbed wire fencing using a chainsaw once, learnt a valuable lesson that day. WEAR PPE

Didn't think of that, more difficult getting the rope round the trunk, or branches. But with looking at. 👌

After a bit of guidance, ive got some signs to put up in some woodland, simple "Private Woodland Please Keep to the footpath" 3 in total 30x50cm all will be above 8 feet so out of reach of potential damage. I have decided on 2 options, not a difficult choice i know, its either brass screws or nails, Which one, i will probably use the same tool for attaching either. 😄

I've used Shania Twain "Feels Like a Woman" before.. Before remote callers I used an I pod thingy and speaker, I'd set up 30 minutes of calls to loop with a 2 minute silent track at the beginning. Put it out in a field about 60-100 yds away. 1 time I thought kids were about playing their boombox. It wasnt it was my caller playing Shania.. Can't remember if I shot anything that night.

One of the advantages of remote callers are taking the prey to an area its either safe to shoot or not coming directly in your direction. I've had success with both but sometimes the additional tool in the box gets the job done easier.. I've had a caller out in a field close to a rearing pen that due to area and wind direction was, at the time more suited than hand calls. 👍

Brilliant to experience. Strange that Robins always seem allot braver than any of our other native birds.

Laburnum is bad enough if horses can reach it but they wont often touch it due to the very bitter taste. Yew berry's when ripe are sweet tasting and not toxic, that is the only part that isnt, the seed and everything else is though. I've known cattle turn toes up after eating Yew clipping that someone threw over a hedge. As you stated have another chat, the nicer approach is always the best option, and ive often found, easier too.👍

I would approach the livery yard 1st, mention about the horses eating your saplings. i wouldn't say that the saplings you mention are poisonous because they are not ,you will just end up looking silly. If they are approachable (50% of this is you also need to be you too) ask if they have a length of electric fencing you can borrow and a unit with battery. Place a boom out towards the field with the fence on, this will prevent them leaning over.

I recon you could do the advertising pictures for Burger-King. that looks quite nice. 👍

It was something i always wanted after reading stories about its super fast velocity. I only gor round to fulfilling my long awaited want after the issues with the HMR. Put in for a 1 for 1 and sold it. It's built on a Sako S491 action, re-blued and looks 👌.

Funny i tried some last week, without the cheese though, they seem to have a thicker sauce than the Heinz not sure if they would convert but i would certainly buy them again. I'm a HP Sauce guy on my beanz, not tomato, thats reserved for black pudding and omelettes.
