Hi all, its been a few year since I was last on here. Was just wondering if anyone knows of a good knife making course around oxfordshire or the surrounding counties, or if anyone making knifes in the area wants to teach me, would be willing to pay

Hi all, I've just been reading an old book about poaching as I'm looking to do abit of ferreting later in the year. In this book it mentioned the best method for catching rabbits was the "well-trap". Has anyone seen a well-trap or has any idea how to make one, there doesn't appear to be...

I found this cd on the web a few months ago and purchased it http://www.cafepress.com/tracker2/423461 . It is a well thought out cd with plenty of info and lots of pictures. It is mainly about american mammals and birds but most of the stuff on tracking is the same where ever you go. Its worth...

I think looking at some of the footage on you tube, has made my mind up. If i don't have anything on my camera its going in the bin and I'll be investing in a new one as soon as i can afford one. I know i've put the camera in the right place as i saw six fallow deer come down the trail as i was...

Having served in a search team in NI in the 80's i do have a bit of experience with search dogs. 4 UDR would work one lab for anything up to 4-5 hours, but dogs are very much the same as us they can be tracked out in 10 minute or just not want to do it at all.

Hi all thought i would add my penny's worth i also track with my dog and to be honest i probably would not get to track that much if it was not for her as she's the best excuse for getting out every night and doing what i love. I've got a yellow lab and she's all nose. To start with she was a...

I thought there might have been more to it than that but cheers jodie

I've just read in the "Countryman" that tonights full moon is the hunters moon does anyone know why it is called that?

I agree that I may not be able to control the population however I would like to try and help my little bit of space. If this mink is a female she could have up to10 young this year if half survive that would be a bigger problem next year when the young leave home I don't think my small bit of...
