    Got a text from my mate to say the ditches on his land are well down and bew rabbit holes all over so decided to go out
    Boxed up the 3 stinkers and the hawk and headed out
    Was hoping to try out the little Jill
    My Finder was workin grand before I headed out and as soon as ferret was down it stopped working
    Ferret came out and I checked it again and still wasn't workin
    Replaced batteries on the finder and wouldn't work
    Replaced the collar batteries and wouldn't work so the day was ruined
    Anyone know who does repairs on these local gun shops perhaps?
    Last resort il send it to deben in uk but rather get it done local
    Anyone point me in right direction?
    Need a reply on this ASAP lads
    Thanks DA

    Interesting method for hunting, do you have to dig them out sometimes? Perhaps you should give the ferrets a rest and try getting a
