  1. I thought the Asil was a big hardcase fighting bird,and the Indian game that I have seen were'nt what I would call small either
  2. Dont know about eagles,but my saluki crosses have introduced themselves to a few birdies that sat tight for a second or two longer than they should have,hedge bottoms are'nt always the safest of places for the old flying chickens
  3. Deer are a prey species once a decent dog has made contact they are pretty much fecked,dont mistake spindly legs and hairy ears as a sign of weakness,the saluki hybrids prey drive and determination wont let you go hungry
  4. I feed a mixture of Red mills racer/tracker,with some meat,green tripe or minced beef/chicken,like to add a bit of whole carcass now and then aswell,like the look of your red dog there looks a good un atb IP
  5. Know what you mean,they can put you in a very awkward position,often when you least expect it,dont know if they are the same in all parts of the country,but the squirrels in my haunts always seem to have a big old bouncy white tail end
  6. Three hours of rain only in the lakes eh,i'm on the opposite side of the country and the sunshine is cracking the pavement,not be able to take my veterans on the hill til it cools down a bit,young Boots has got some back on him looking stronger and more mature every time you put pics up,do you feed the 55% stuff to the older dogs aswell or is it just for the growing dogs atb
  7. Baseline bred lurchers perhaps but greyhounds saturated hounds no chance. The ground conditions alone would destroy their feet, wrists and shoulders on no time trust me on that one. . Excuse me for not being clear, I mean our uk coursing dogs in particular the ones ran on the fens. arent the fens below sea level? thats why you must allways take a catty with you To hell with the catty I'd be taking a coracle incase of flash floods
  8. would it effect mobility scooters? only the petrol ones the electric ones are ok as long as the charger has a two pin plug on What about the duracell scooters would the altitude affect there off road ,capabilities,I hear they are unstoppable
  9. Nothing like it mate,shame the anti's cannot experience what we feel superb sight ,And the man in the rain picked up his bag of secret's and journeyed up the mountainside far above the clouds,and nothing was ever heard from him again,except for the sound of ????????
  10. Could be true,not so easy for the strong silent type geordie boys to blow into a pretty girls ear as it is for the more southern impressario
  11. Got to hand it to them,they must have 100% catch rate eagle and dog ffs,now I know the real meaning of double handed,but was there really any need to use a dog to catch an escaped pet rabbit,I could have caught that with concrete wellies on
  12. Had a few old english game (furness),very high pitched vocal little birds,good layer's but too noisy for me as I keep them in back garden,got a little mixed flock now including a couple of silkies they are real quiet look like miniature alpacas
  13. agree 100% only slip in that should ever be done imho is if a young pups meets mr right on wrong day , then maybe send in a seasoned soldier to put an end to it, and even then ya gotta question whose at fault, maybe not the pup? they learn sod all from slip ins imho, gives em a false read of the workload they will face alone, maybe in the olden days this happened more and was even competed for was doubles, maybe thats cos they did not have the dogs we able to have nowadays ? besides all the fair play buisness how can ya carry a can of stella on a nice days coursing in the july heat w

  15. He moves silent, He moves deadly,strange how some of the young plugs look up to a tool that has been in and out of prison a few times,seen this myself with a supposed dog man,never understood the attraction myself
  16. Is it just me or can anyone else feel the presence of a white wolf ?
  17. Seen both long and short coupled dogs tying them in knots,but I do like the style of a fast short coupled little coursing bitch with a tight running style
  18. But have you got fly fishing by J R Hartley The hunting gene by Robin Page is some book,written in support of countrysports unbiased as it is written by a farmer/conservationist,who does'nt hunt,shoot or fish,but has an unlimited knowledge of what country life and living is all about
  19. Fences and that brings another question........is it essential for a dog to jump....... can you see where were going with this That reminds me any updates on whether a kangaroo is fast or not,and I'm not talking about the ones that are still trying to gnaw their way through old rolf's rope
  20. I carn`t believe anyone would even ask WHY????? On a brighter note, perhaps Anubis will rise from the ashes and a new era will begin He ain't been posting anything any more strange this week than he was posting before...unless I'm missing something...probably missed it eh? Fun while it lasted...I'm waiting for the book...Diana the Huntress: The Woburn Years... A snowball rolling down a hill, gets bigger and bigger until eventually it can no longer contain its own size and implodes Would this be the pere david variety of snowball
