    So you would breed from a pedigree even if the 1st 2 dogs were not up to scratch? I'm all for pedigrees but it's the 1st gen that makes the rest important you jumped to some very silly conclusions I'm all for pedigrees I've no need to defend my dogs on here this is not school so don't criticise my punctuation pedigree means f all unless the dog or bitch it belongs to are good so show us your dog not it's pedigree . This dog will prob be for sale soon. Alan if your referring to the Springer in your YouTube vids I'd quite down if I were you he has a nice ped but looks very average all my dogs bar 1 are trial bred so I never. Once knocked trial dig highduck your right that was a rant
    videos/pics never do a dog justice everyone knows that.i know that myself by looking back at the videos.you think you have a great video when you look back its only average.im sure the other lads with the go pro's are the same

    If you think they don't do a dog justice, why bother posting them? Bunch of asses walking around with cameras stuck to them. Average dog = average video.

    Just fed up of the bull being posted on here by the self proclaimed 'dog men'.
    Your dogs look average, that's just my opinion. But you think otherwise.
    What's you background with dogs? Have you 30+ years experience? From your posts, I sincerely doubt it.
    And if you want some videos to look back on, fair enough. But that doesn't mean you have to post them online for all of the anti blood sport protestors to veiw and use against U.S. and our sport.

    iv never came on here blowing about my dogs.Yes some of them might be average and im certainly no dog man.But they serve me well and keep putting up the birds so im happy.i shoot because its a pass time if you take it to seriously the fun will go out of it regards having the best dogs and the best guns ect ect you have to stop somewhere.30 years experience with dogs fair play.Not been smart but you could be 30 years doing anything and still be **** at it.point taking regards the videos and the antis

    I'm assuming you mean "us" as i cannot see the link to the U.S. (United States).

    The video thread was created for those that want to post their videos, and will remain so as long as this forum is in existence. Same with the pictur thread. The fact you claim these videos will be used by anti blood sports people makes no sense. They only have to go onto Youtube and they can find as many as they like, and far, far worse than is on here.

    Also the idea of hiding away a section of hunting because others might not like it is naive, short sighted and bowing to the pressure of others. By hiding or attempting to hide what we do we make it seem like there is a reason to hide it. It's why this forum never was, and never will be private. If you truly believe that then i suggest you sell your guns, dogs, and take up golf until such a time as the hemp warriors find a reason to call for it to be banned, like cruelty to the grass (and i'm not being facetious)

    The tree hugger brigade have been found to doctor pictures, footage, etc. from wherever it was originally placed. It's the reason we ask our members to post pictures with guns, and other items in such a position so as to make doctoring the picture hard/impossible. We will never bow to them, their lies, their tactics, and as they number in their tens i'm not quite as intimidated as some by them.


    I don't have dogs, and never had dogs (not the working kind). My only interest here is the forum, video/picture thread and our members right to post what they want without being bombarded with baseless, and scaremongering, comments about feeding the antis. So please enough of telling people not to post pictures/videos. If you want to argue a point about dogs do so. As long as it's civil and about the topic.

    I agree, but if you're 30 years doing something, and still **** at it, time to give it up. I'd still rather deal with experience than little or no experience.

    CASS couldn't of put it better.

    What is it with all the sniping on here lately.

    Alan lad your dogs are what they are to you. You shoot plenty of game for the pot and enjoy yourself doing it.

    Yes I did mean us, not United states. Autocorrect.

    I disagree with your logic on the video thread, you're sayin that because there are other videos, much worse videos, on YouTube, that it's ok to keep adding to them. That doesn't make sense. Antis have their own agenda, and they will use any videos against the shooting man. But to use a recently video shot in ireland, against the Irish hunters, would make more sense than using a 2 year old video that was shot say in Poland or an old video from China.
    I'm not saying we have to hide away, but we don't have to publicise it either.

    ...... you're sayin that because there are other videos, much worse videos, on YouTube, that it's ok to keep adding to them.
    No i'm not. You're bastardising what i said.

    What i'm saying is if we had no video thread or picture thread the so called "antis" would still find something. They don't need to look here as there only avenue for finding videos. Yes there are worse videos on Youtube than on here, and it's easy to find the Irish ones so China, Poland, etc has feck all to do with it.

    These "people" have about 5 to 10 at their core. They can use social media much more expertly than us, but when it comes to revenue in the local community, revenue in taxes/sales/etc we far, FAR, out weigh them. We also have a 10,000 to 1 membership ratio which is evident in all the protests where we attended in our thousands, and they attended in their tens (barely).
    I'm not saying we have to hide away, but we don't have to publicise it either.
    Then you are saying we have to hide it away.

    Can you not see the damage hiding away or "keeping the head down" creates. It is still viewed as hiding and that we are doing something illegal/wrong. We have been asked for years why the forum is not private, well why should it be? Everything we do it legal, and until such a time as that changes i'll not hide what i do. Whether that hiding comes in the form of not posting pictures/videos to being embarrassed by saying i'm a hunter.

    This is not some soap box rant. I've never understood those that speak of their shooting/huntting as in the same way as a young lad would when talking to a shop owner while trying to buy a porn mag. It's not a dirty topic (hunting that is) so why people feel the need to capitulate on some points is beyond me. Do you think the sandal wearers wwould sit down and listen to reasoned debate. Do you think the hunt saboteurs would ease up on the damage they cause so as not to offend, so you think the so called eco terrorists would stop fire bombing places to be seen in a better light.

    Well we cannot stoop to their level, nor should we, so we hold our head high, and continue on with our LEGAL sport in any fashion we choose.

    Alan fair play to you for having the courage to go out and put your videos up on boards. A lot of small minded jealous people seem to be sniping as EP just said. A man of 30+ years should be given advice not cutting a youngfellas dogs...

    +1 to Cass

    Allan, if you don't mind me critiquing something here, it's just an observation.

    How are you expected to sell your Dogs skills and abilities to the masses in this modern Internet era where everybody with a keyboard and second rate internet connection is a know all?

    My solution to this problem is Costumes, it makes a average looking Dog look outstanding, it makes your Dog look as if it's going fast, even when it's sitting down.

    Look at these examples below...

    I rest my case.

    You can thank me later.

    I have hunting videos on this forum and on youtube,I'm proud to show them on any forum,the antis won't be happy with anything less than their vegetarian utopia, so my vids of anyone elses won't make any difference.Regarding dogs,I have considerable experience,30 years or more,I can see nothing wrong with Alans dogs,and if he is happy with them whats the problem.
