Hello everyone, There is a controversy about the first shot at our hunter's club. Some veteran hunters say it's buckshot. Does this wild boar shot by Slug or Buckshot (9 pellets) at the first shot? What's your opinions on this video?

I really appreciate it Dave, It means alot to me.

Thank you for your concern Dave. I'm waiting impatiently for your reply.

Hello everyone from Turkey/Istanbul, I'm an amateur filmmaker who makes hunting videos on a wildlife perspective. I've been watching this video over and over again for the past 2 days to get the correct English subtitles. I'd like to translate English subtitles to Turkish but first I have to get the 100% correct English subtitles. As you guys would guess I'm a non-native speaker of English, so I need your help on this one. I've been working on this video for two days and finally I could write this much subtitles as you can see below. Correcting me on this subtitles would take your 30 minutes at most. Thanks in advance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhdS-BBizaY Easter Bunnies had chocolate eggs are rutted a strange and mysteries past. Wildlife on One ?! myth and magic of the hare from scenes of her coursing originating of barbaric times to its worship as a deity. Wildlife on One Easter Special Narrated By David Attenborough With Songs Performed By Maddy Prior To the mediae?! evil mind, evil stalk ?! in many g?!s. A hare was not always what it seems. Sometimes it was the shape taking by witches to a?! pursued. But the r?! of that belief go back even further into history. And there still with us today every time we celebrate Easter. The ?! the ?! the ?! And its original g?! the hare was not a witch but the symbol of an ancient Saxon goddess. I shall goe until a hare Wi sorrow and such mickle care I sall goe in the devil's name And while I come home again Shadow of the Hare The hare has always been a creature of myth and mystery. And today it still ?! founds scientists and naturalists. It’s an animal whose natural history and mythology are intertwined. To understand the one you have to understand the other. It is said that a field with two hares in it during the day will have ten times that number at night. They appear as if from nowhere, and disappear with the rising sun. They prefer the cover of darkness. Winter’s long nights hide most of their activities. At dawn they settle down. Unlike rabbits they make no ?!. They either rest on the surface or d?! a ?! ?! that only protection on w?! fields. They sink so low that they can hide in shortest crops. By day an open field might conceal dozens of hares and exposed they ?! ?! winter. Winter wakeneth al my care Nou this leues waxeth bare; Ofte y sike ant mourne sare When hit cometh in my thoht Of this worldes joie hou hit geth al to noht As winter reseats?! night shortened isn’t enough darkness to conceal all their activities. They raise f?! in the late afternoon. For many, the hare is that the very heart of British countryside. A symbol of a wildest that no longer exists. Yet, at the same time an animal it is a tuned to the farmer’s landscape. A familiar creature but one that becoming a rarer or is it. The friendliest one, the cat of the wood, the stare of wood wide eyes, the cat that looks b?!, the ?! one, the furs cat. The hare has been given endless names. And the different times it lives up the most of them. As winter gives way to spring it lives up to its best known label. It’s the season of the mad march hare. These antics are in fact part of the hares breeding behavior. They used to be a widespread belief that hares could change sexist and it’s not until recently that scientists have been able to work out the role of bucks and does in this m??!! of boxing and chasing. The doe has left a scent on the ground a chemical message that tells the bucks how close to being in season she is. Early in her cycle, it’s the younger less experienced bucks that will consult with her. And although she’s not ready to conceive she lets these young bucks mount her. It encourages their undivided attention an extra pair of watchful eyes means she can spend more time feeding. Even when bedded down for the day the young bucks will stay close to the doe. But these inexperienced males are unlikely to get the chance to father offspring, her leverets. As she comes to the season she broadcasts the fact with chemicals lofted by her tale and more experienced bucks begin to take an interest. There are so few days in the season when the doe can conceive that she’s now a valuable commodity. Males some all over the area respond to her alluring scent. An attentive caught gangs?! around her, though there’s little fighting between her suitors. The bucks live in a social hierarchy in which each knows his place. The dominant bucks don’t have to be enticed to stay with her. So most of these boxing matches are her attempts to ward off that overzealous advances until she’s ready to conceive. Until recently, even scientists had assumed that the competence were both males. Despite the battering an experienced buck knows that persistence pays. This frantic activity is very obvious in March but this isn’t the only time it happens. Courtship started in December but up until now it’s been at night. It will continue until August but then the grass and crops will have grown taller so it’s all hidden from our gaze?!. But the myth of the mad March hare still persists. After dark hares appear in the fields as if from nowhere, so they’ve become symbols of the night. Wherever in the world has occurred they have been linked with the moon. Buddhists don’t see a man in the moon they see the shadow of the hare. And as the moon waxes and wanes it seems to appear and disappear like the hares in the fields. Cycles have changed that came to symbolize the Great Cycle of death and rebirth. I am ruled by the moon I move under her mantle I am the symbol of her moods Of rebirths cycle I am companion to the Gods I can conceive while I am pregnant I call the dawn and spring in I am the advent The moon is reborn once a month, the earth once a year. Spring was the time of Eastre the Anglo-Saxon goddess of fertility and rebirth. And her sacred beast was the hare. The hare carried the new light that warmed the crops and brought to the fields Eastre’s ultimate symbol of fertility, the egg. I bring life from water In a cup that must be broken I whisper to the bursting egg I'm Aestre's token The eggs in the fields won’t of course laid by hares but by lapwings, though the Lapwing shallow nest don’t look very much like a hare’s form. But the egg still represents fertility producing life from an apparently lifeless fluid a symbol of spring and the reawakening year. This chick will be shepherded protected and guarded by its parents. But the leveret’s its only protection is stillness. At dusk it must move to find its mother and feed without ?! sharp eyes overhead. ?!… less vulnerable but they’re hunted for the pot by lampoon’s court in the spotlight a powerful lamp the hare is pursued by a lurcher a dog trained to run the light beam at its quarry. Throughout history hares are rarely escaped the ancient hunting partnership of man and dog. Scent of dog, scent of man Closer closer, smell them coming Hot breath, hot death Closer closer, hard the running Tongues pant, hearts thump Closer closer, through the fields Teeth snap, bones crack Closer closer, at my heels Nearer, yet and nearer I can hear the hunter's knife He is running for my dinner I am running for my life Recently it’s become clear that the hare population is falling. There may be fewer than a million left in Britain. But the reasons for this decline are as mysterious as the hare itself. Hares prefer to feed on tender green shoots so they should do better in areas with small fields as varied crops where there’s always one copper just the right stage. Yet some of the highest populations live on the vast monocultures of East Anglia. There are also high populations of hares on land manage for game. Keepers kill foxes which can ambush unwary hares. And keepers also plant cover of their births, shelter that hares used to their advantage. In open landscapes hares spend as much of the day as they can motionless in their f?!. Undercover they’re much more relaxed about life. In fact shelter seems to be surprisingly important for a creature so well adapted to life in the open. Wherever there are woodlands and ?! hares will use them during the hours of daylight. But there are some hares that will spend the entire lives in woodland. Even conifer plantations perhaps all that can be said with confidence about the hare is that it is a surprisingly adoptable animal which makes its disappearance in many areas or ?! mysterious. With the arrival of summer hares leave the arable land to seek out fresh p?!. Now that the crops are ripening their main source of green food is grazing land. The hares never like sharing fields with domestic animals. From the little ?! understand the hare ecology it seems they ought to ?! better in areas where traditional farming is still practiced. Yet one of lowest populations is now in Devon ?! where farming is probably changed the least. But all over Britain farming is now dependent on chemicals. The fields grow only what the farmer wants. Hares were undoubtedly more abundant in the past. Before fertilizers and pesticides a riot of weeds fed the hares even while the crop itself was ripening. Such fields provided both food and shelter. They were ideal places to raise leverets. Hares are all ages would have been a familiar sight to the harvest is as they work their way through the fields. Eastre’s beasts bring her fertility in the spring came to symbolize the crop spirit, cutting the last stand of corn was sometimes called “cutting the hare". Both the hare’s and corn’s spirit freeing before the side but trapped in the last standing wheat. And straw for this last ?! was used to weave a corn dolly?! a cage to hold the crops spirit safely for the winter. Be berried in the field in the spring renewing its fertility. In today’s harvest there is no place for the hare or the corn spirit. Man sprays no weeds The scythe cuts, the corn bleeds Leverets trapped in a harvest blade 'Tis the time of man, the hare said Here's the tractor, here's the plough And where shall we go now We'll lie in forms as still as the dead In the open fields, the hare said No cover but the camouflage From the winter's wild and bitter rage All our defence is in our legs We run like the wind, the hare said Once the combines have gone the hares returned. Before winter sets in again, the still time for a flasher green weeds in the stubble fields and once more the night so growing long enough to hide the hares. The brown hare is embedded in our folklore. Part of the fabric of the British landscape yet it isn’t even a native here. It’s an ancient introduction. It probably arrived on the shores with the lesions of Rome. And if the Romans brought it they did so for one reason, coursing. Today this looks barbaric and indeed coursing is an ancient pursuit. It dates back more than 30 centuries. The image of the Hare & Hounds has acquired symbolic significance and traditions worldwide like all symbols of death and rebirth the hare had itself to die before it could be reborn. And in mythology the agent of sacrifice was often the Greyhound. Today the coursing is still practiced. Beaters attempt to drive hares one at a time onto the coursing field. The slipper has to judge whether the hare is fit enough to be coursed. Give it a head start then slip to dogs. Although the hare is running for its life the intention is not to catch it but judge the dogs on how well they turn the hare around the field. The Greyhounds or gazehounds have been bred to follow their quarry by sight not scent. In the spring the dogs are faster but the hare is more agile and can see directly backwards and if it can evade the dog’s jaws its superior stamina will soon give it the edge in speed. And in fact five out of every six hares escape. Coursing embodies the great paradox in hunting for pleasure. Supporters have coursing are also amongst the greatest supports of hares, even though their activity inevitably kill some. And if coursing was made illegal farmers might well choose to shoot hares as pests. And far more would die. But many would say that now the hares shouldn’t have to pay like this for sharing our farmland. There was a time in Britain when a hare would never have been pursued for pleasure. To ancient Britain’s hunting the sacred hare was a taboo. So the hare has fallen from grace. Why? The answer lay in a wave of ideas which engulfed Britain. It said that after the crucifixion Joseph of Arimathea came here to Glastonbury. He planted his staff in the ground when it grew into a thrown?! The holly thrown which still flowers each Christmas symbolizing the flowering of Christianity across these islands. Pops of Britain’s pagan beliefs were thinly disguised and absorbed into the new religion. The Eastre’s festival love the rebirth of the year became a festival celebrating the rebirth of Christ. And Easter still carries her name. The Eastre’s eggs as symbols of fertility also survived. Their now they made of chocolate. But the hare was too vivid a pagan symbol to become part of a Christian festival. Instead it was disguised as a rabbit dressed up to look ridiculous, it became the Easter Bunny. And the faith of those who kept the old religion was to be burned at the stake as witches. The belief that witches to transform into hares stems from a dimly remembered Association with the goddess. It’s a symbolism that reaches forward to the present. Unnoticed the hare still runs through our lives. I've been cursed, I've been despised As a witch with darkest powers I shall goe until a hare I've been hunted trapped and punished In these my darkest hours Wi' sorrow and such mickle care I've been thrown into the fire But I do not fear it I shall goe until a hare It purifies and resurrects And I can bear it Wi' sorrow and such mickle care I sall goe until a hare Wi' sorrow and such mickle care I've outrun dogs and foxes And I've dodged the tractor wheels I shall goe until a hare I've survived your persecution And your ever-changing fields Wi' sorrow and such mickle care I will run and run forever Where the wild fields are mine I shall goe until a hare I'm a symbol of endurance Running through the mists of time Wi' sorrow and such mickle care

Thank you very much @aga man. Thank you so much Dave, Happy new year to you and all of us.

Hello from Turkey/Istanbul, I watched this video and I couldn't catch some of words on this part of the video as I'm not a native English speaker: BBC: March hare madness: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00tgpx2 2:04 :"These aren't the vows of fervent jack hares scrapping s for the females." What does he say on this part? Thanks in advance.

@Chris Bb, Thanks for your concern. I understand what you mean. But I'd like to have it anyway. @Westward, Thanks for the idea. I tried to buy it from there and came across 35£ international shipping cost. As you understand paying 35£ shipping cost for a 6.50£ item is ridiculous. I promise to pay £6.50 and additional £6.50 I mean total 13£ via Paypal. Does someone can buy it for me and send me the pdf version of it?

I've tried to order it on ebay.com and I've got this message: "One or more of the items below can't be purchased because the seller hasn't specified postage costs to the location selected" I contacted with the seller who said he was unable to alter international postage. As a result I coudn't buy it on ebay.com. I also tried to contact with Eley Hawk Limited directly on sales@eleyhawkltd.com but nobody answered me for two weeks. I also sent a message on Eley Hawk Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Eley-Hawk-Ammunition/186700008018221?fref=ts but nobody replied me for two weeks. I'm not a penny pincher who afraids of shipping costs. I'm a guy who likes to explore new things about my hobbies. And, I'm looking for a solution. Can any of you guys help me on this one?

Hello everyone, I came across the Jonathan-spencer.co.uk website that explains about some of the shotgun shooting myths like "What pattern and shot size is required for each quarry species?" and shows the resource was "The Eley Shooter's Diary" www.jonathan-spencer.co.uk/Reference/Guns/Shotgun/Ammo/Shotsize.pdf I really like the tips and informations about shotgunning. I believe there is updated version of it which called The Eley Shooter's Diary 2015. Does somebody who have this book could share the pdf version of it or picture format of it that I could download? I'm not trying to be smart as a fox. I live in Turkey, Istanbul. I don't want to deal with the issue of the customs and overseas shipment. Thanks in advance.
