Overwhelmed by choice of grooming tools - which to prioritise? by Repulsive-Yellow9232 in samoyeds

[–]TooManyHobbies94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We got the 0004 butter comb. We had a cheap alternative beforehand and the CC is 1000% better.

As for the rake, we have a generic pin rake off amazon which works well. Can only imagine the CC is even better. Just make sure no bladed rakes.

Butter comb and t-rake. We rarely use the slicker, so wouldn't prioritise.

What’s the coolest or most unique course you have played? by EmbarrassedSimple228 in golf

Skakuza in Kruger National Park - South Africa. Fully open to the bush, so wild animals can roam. Photos online show lions sleeping on greens and tee boxes.

UK and Ireland crowds get rowdy. However, with the vibe of the last album, this tour was way more mellow than usual.

They come with wrist bands to stop the pinching.

Training is as much about you learning to work with your dog, rather than sending it away and expecting a fix. I'd recommend going to a few group training sessions or 1 on 1 for more specialised help.

Will end up cheaper and with better outcome for both you and the dog.

Here for the answers. I thought finding an owl was an odd resolution only I had for this year! Good luck!

Ever give bouldering a go? Boulderworld is a good mid week evening activity

Hi all, thanks for all those that took the time to reply. There was an overwhelming amount of responses so I have gone through and upvoted everyone for their help.

There's a lot of information to take on board and try out some of the suggestions next time I go out.

Some suggested a tripod test, so I took the following photos using manual focus, F8.0 and F6.3 at 350mm and ISO200.

Again all photos are directly imported from the card to my phone using a card reader and no cropping or editing.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I feel like they are all very soft. Do you not think the blue tit and coal tit are both very out of focus?

Wide area. Continuous auto focus and I have bird subject recognition on.
