Alternative varmint hunting

Recommended Posts

Well with the game shooting season finished just over two weeks ago and sixty acres of Maize and Dwarf Sorghum giving food and shelter to a healthy rat population, I got these guys to help me out.

 

The Hascombe Rat Hounds, I have never met a more determined and efficient bunch of guys and believe you me no rat is safe and there's no place to hide.

Accidents happen, especially when seperating two scrapping terriers

Hi Elwood

 

Sounds like great time, there is something very satisfying seeing a dog doing what it breed for & loves doing.

 

All the pictures except one are showing "moved or deleted" ????? :rolleyes::rolleyes:

 

Cheers Steve

 

Bugger, I moved them to a different folder which causes the links to crash, I will re do them!

What a great day out you had :rolleyes: .

 

I have to say that although I love any kind of shooting one of the best day sport I ever had was with some guys with terriers on an estate in Hampshire where my friend was a keeper and we had over a hundred rats.

 

That is just brilliant sport and it is nice see the dogs working.

Looks like you had a good day. Nice to see the dogs working and it can be all a bit frantic at times.

Nice to see you all wearing gloves nasty thing that Weil's disease. Hope the bloody finger got well disinfected.

 

Used to shoot on a landfill site and had many a big bag day shooting rats with the 22, excellent sport.
