Take your daytime dog and build him up like any dog on the lamp and they are more than capable..
Take one out and blast them run after run from scratch and they will fade like any dog would..
They can be fit but are not used to the different workload..
Most dogs would not struggle up here in small fields with stock wire and stone walls.
Seen 3/4 grey 1/4 saluki take 7 hares and 31 rabbits solo and caught double figures hares with two dogs..
It was purpose bred daytime dog but got lamped regular..
Some are harder than others granted and if they knew the score they never jumped in the bag..
Daytime is dog against hare - night time the lamper aids the dog or should do..
few variables to consider but personally at night they were significantly easier to put to bed

Some on Amazon for 60 odd quid..
I read mine and sold it wish i kept hold of it lol
Thats a shame they knowly let guns on the land days before your event...
A game estates a business but to do that your club is disgusting..
Any more pictures ??
Would love to see them ..
I stick my neck on the line..
I caught double figures hares on the lamp often - more than once a week..
A lot ran double up but single as well..
The same dogs would blank or be lucky to catch the odd one daytime one on the same ground..
A lamped hare was easy - we made sure of that & stacked the odds in our favour..
I find it hard to believe daytimes dogs would struggle on the lamp.. For numbers maybe - I ain't seen many run but the ones i have had no problem at all..
I could see lamping dogs not getting one bend in on a daytime hare..
As for
That No moon tonight was a excellent book..
Simomans would of been better is the reader had never been on a computer / forums..
Got that olde Waddy wordswoth its alright but dont think it compares to some of the newer books on the market..
Darcy when are you gonna sell kindle versions ??
I seen it its not as bad as what being portrayed..
It was banter lads just having laughs..
The hares were given respect and law when the dog was slipped..
I can see both sides - and can appreciate why hares are discarded..
They are good discs Max the lads love and live for coursing
Respect could cost you a ASBO and a driving ban
Sure all lads would love to take quarry home but is it worth the grief ??
For the record I have never killed anything thats gone to waste,however can see some other lads point of view..
Vin I have a Agile coat its 9/10 year old never let in on me..
I hear the new stuff ain't as good as the old..
I have a karrimor Weathertite coat thats water thats also not let me down..
