    I´d never trust a Gun on my land that couldn´t spell.

    If it were up to me... I would free all the Horses enslaved in "Logging" around the Uk and together with other Daily Mail readers organise "Scum Drives".Where upon decent folk like myself would ride the Streets of Cites and Market towns following our packs of Baying "Scum Hounds.Driving forth a wave of social wasters towards lines of Tweed clad marksmen and woman who would dispatch said wasters with Shotguns. Nothing so un imaginative as "a blow to the head".

    Have you Googled "Forest Contractors Hampshire"? Or looked through the phone Book? Asked at the Chainsaw shop? Solved a problem yourself? Old enough to drive? Use a spoon? Breath? Etc?

    Not boasting or anything. But none of you are as good as this guy and probably never will be.Just look at all his stuff. Shall I list all the equipment? Or will you all be unprepared for the tsunamic waves of envy you will all experiance.

    Buy a Diesel Series II Landrover. You will be either too slow or broken down and it will never happen again.

    Alot of companies have the word "Tree" or "Treecare" in their name.Using that clue along with where you want to work,for example Vancouver means that you find companies doing Trees in Vancouver.

    All thats really great Tony,but none of it relates to the kenetic energy imparted on a target.All this waffle about Knights being pinned to Horses and other romantic blah dose not address the fact that Arrows are not really a humane way to down an Animal. Anyway I am off to the Bow Club,can´t wait to see pictures of your Long Bow when it arrives.
  18. Mike Hill
    That is indeed the biggest load of tosh you have ever uttered on this forum Tony. A Bullet kills faster and more humainly than any Arrow.As for Deer running off without their Hind Quarters,would they be running on their forequarters? IF you cock up a shot on a Deer and smash its Pelvis it drops straight away,it might go some distance "in front wheel drive" but you would put one through its vitals before it did so.Instant death,something an Arrow does not do on Deer sized game. Arrows kill by way of blood loss,the Arrow (hopefully) severs an artery,off runs the animal pumping blood like a fountain untill it dies or lies down. As for "a long bow taking a man off his feet at 150 yards" how can the delivered energy of an Arrow be greater than its energy upon release?So if it knocks a man off his feet at 150 yards,it must fling the Archer across the feild when he fires it.

    Because the bottom has fallen out of the UK Tree industry or and VOSA are busting people running on Cherry?

    Years ago I was driving a Dozer in the Forest,gingerly I tracked across a slope sitting on the arm rest becase of the angle the machine was on. "Don´t ++++ around yelled the foreman,it´ll take twice the angle" So I sat down,did the seat belt up just before I rolled 25 tons of Dozer three times.
  23. Mike Hill
    I can't help you,but would enjoy seeing some pictures of your work. Please post some.

    Thats actually a very exciting program by Scandinavian standards. Only bettered on a global scale by the Canadian burning log Channels,where one can choose between Ceder or Hickory.My highlight was always when the person in charge would add another Log.

    Primo!
