  5. Watching the lamp , retrieved to hand or very close let's not forget it's just ran its hart out for the kill so to hand is not major, straight back to you after a run kill or not , jumping barb wire , to me in the dark I'd rather lift him over them rather risk him ripping him self to bits if he miss judges it .

  10. Can I just make this clear I'm not against making money out of hunting and fair play to you if you can make a few ££ what gets my back up is when they come on here and have a go at people who get a few in the summer months I've seen people pull up with a trailer fill it with rabbits 100 + and still twist that they haven't got enuff to cover costs even more so it's a once a year drive up no respect leaving a big hole full of guts open gates open rubbish beer cans left and verbally aggressive when they are told to clean up let's say they will never get back on or any surrounding land I myself wi

  16. In my eyes if you're dogs are as good as some people say on here you should not have a problem catching lamp shy rabbits I'm not a fan of blowing my dogs trumpet but some say when there dogs are super fit they can catch everything so why worry about lack off numbers or is it the lack of coins in your pockets from the low numbers your getting ? Myself and many more do it for the love of the sport . Some do it for the the love of the money
