| Can anyone recommend a good priest? Obviously I am not as strong as most men and when my dogs pick up wounded birds I am having trouble despatching them instantly. I brought a priest from NOBS but think I need one that is heavier at the end. |

He started to pick it up an inch off the ground but on ... |
