Cod120 Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Posted November 14, 2007 you can have mine cod,my wife bought me a new one,i`m booked also thanks fozz is it a right handed reverse hook?
prydie#9 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 cod i used the right handed reverse hook last year and it wasnt that good, ive went for the "spining ghostbuster with extended flaps" this year. They have them in stock on amazon at the moment. prydie
Cod120 Posted November 15, 2007 Author Report Posted November 15, 2007 i'll give it a try m8 but im better at hooking than spearing
Andymek Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 cod i used the right handed reverse hook last year and it wasnt that good, ive went for the "spining ghostbuster with extended flaps" this year. They have them in stock on amazon at the moment. prydie You've got more chance getting a Nintendo Wii than the Spinning GB!!!! There was a hunting website which was based in Kentucky which stocked loads of hunt based equipment and they had the Spinning GB listed so I e-mailed em asking for prices as regards shipping to the UK and got a reply saying that this year the demand for the GB was phenomenal and that they were sold out and wouldnt be able to get new supplies in until way after the 30th which of course is of no use whatsoever. The person was extremely helpful though, fully appreciating just how important an event this is and advised me to perhaps try the slightly smaller,lighter fixed head Rizzler. As you well know its not quite as accurate as any type of spinner as such but has the benefits of quicker reloading times than the GB in particular and looks fair braw hanging on yer armour belt due to its unique ergonomically designed handle. I'll unfortunately miss this years event due to the fact some totally inconsiderate person has decided to get married on the opening day and my attendence at the afforementioned exchaning of marital vows is very much required I'd like to take this opportunity to wish everyone who is indeed intending taking part the very best of luck... My Gawd you'll need it as you'll certainly know youve been on the hunt once its over.. P.S, As I'm unable to attend the event, anyone wishing to borrow my flipback invertor get in touch and I can arrange for Cod to bring it to the event for you Once Again, All the best 'MEK
Mac219 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 Really hope to make it this year, Gotta laugh at you young uns wi the new fandango GB's and Klumpers, all aluminium lightweight stuff. I still use my dads old Chakkits, which were his dads btw. made from Hickory and leather. A bit heavier to carry but I think just as good for the job, Hey last years results say it all. Best of luck lads...see you there

Jarry164 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 I had tried the new equipment a few events ago and didn't think the accuracy was up to scratch, hence the reason I went for the updated guttie, gone for the heavier 10oz chukkies too, need to be closer but wearing the glaekit suit should make me merge into the scenery and get a few shots away .

Andymek Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 Of course its a wind up Jarry!! If you pay very close attention you can see the eyes of the beast have a glazed opaque type look which is only found in the less common hairy muffed species, solely located in the Outer hebrides,( location for the 2003 hunt) and the foliage in the picture is the Dangle Berry bush which wont survive such harsh winters as they experience oop norf!!! Nice try Fish Boy!!! 'MEK
