I use an army Bergen with the side pockets, and slide the decoy spikes between the bag & side pockets then use the top webbing straps to secure the decoys to the top of the pack.

I went out this morning; nothing was shot but that doesn’t matter. Being on the river first thing, seeing it all wake up, hearing & seeing geese again (even if they were 400yds away whilst ignoring any of my attempts at calling) was well worth the 2am alarm call.

Another dog cub tonight with .243 & NV = 164

I’ve got an indoor one now, which is modern for Herefordshire (Khazi that is, not fallow carcass!).

2 tonight before the rain forced me to retire; dog cub & vixen cub, .243 & NV. total - 152

I’ve had the same; both shoulders taken out with a .308 when stalking, engine room turned to mush and it still somehow made it 20yds into cover. God knows how as it nearly fell apart when I picked it up.

2 last night; 1 dog, 1 vixen cub. .243 & NV. total- 137

I just whacked an eyed bolt through the upper frame on the outside toilet door. Works a treat, and the missus is yet to notice it.

How many Grey Squirrels killed in 2021
Bumble replied to steve_b_wales's topic in Other Pest Control

I’ve found putange or talpex to work best for me, depending on depth of tunnels.

Cheers. I’m having a hiatus from turning due to a herniated vertebrae, so clearing out any stuff I’ve got left in the workshop.

Hand turned by me from seasoned English ash. Poured lead insert, PU varnish coating & paracord wrist loop. £25 each plus £3 courier delivery. I’ve used my own to brain everything from pigeons to geese & they work a treat.

I’ve got a T1x in .17hmr & it’s faultless. I’ve put close to a 1000 shots through it in a couple of years and it’s never let me down (using Hornady ballistic tips). It is a bit galling having to check each box for split necks, but I’ve only ever found 2 that needed returning to the shop for replacement, and they were in the same box.

Dog fox yet again with .243 = 29

Big dog fox with .243 = 28

I’ve just got a Wraith HD 4-32x50, and the included IR is as bad as I was warned it would be! Does anybody have any recommendations for a decent illuminator for up to £100?

He’s British, and was working in Brazil. That doesn’t excuse him being a ****, but at least read the article first...
