    best lurcher i ever seen work was a 1st cross springer grey 1979. mind ive never seen another one since
  4. paulus
    but that begs the question why would you want a gun dog with extra pace as presumably they are all ready bred right for the job,or are they,dont know iv lost myself now Would this not technicaly be a lurcher ????? ATB correct

    as mine are to,well nearly lol,but it was a general question i suppose not personel requirement if you know what i mean most gundogs are purchased as a shooting accessary buy those who have to keep up with the set

    not wanting kennels full of breed specific dogs i use my lurchers for everything including retriving shot game, even in water, in the pigeon hide and rough shooting i expect them to bush and retrieve. i admit they havent the style of a spaniel or a lab but the do the job to the standard i require and forefill all that a lurcher should do aswell. they cost nowhere near a gundog to buy and in most cases are easier to train and tend to have a longer working life. i have no inclination to field trial or pay to shoot driven game so in short why would i want a one track pony of a gundog?

    old flash is 10 now still catches on the lamp but suffers next day if you slip him too many times, hes a crafty old git in the day knows just were to position himself to just nip in at the end of a course to snaffle up the prize, he still retrieves anything shot and is as good at the end of a dig as he ever was. hes bull grey x colliegrey/beddy/whippit/grey. will try to find a picture to put up

    dont how sooty sam ran but i had a blue bitch he sired back in1994 mistral (fast lady of meliden) she took hare and rabbits well. she was an exellent ferreting dog, the only dog ive owned that would crown a laid up ferret. she also went in on the odd fox. all in all a very game little bitch.

    traditionally long nets have always been made in square mesh not diamond mesh as are purse nets. as i said earlier make one a stop net or something smaller for a start,
  15. paulus
    longnets made in square mesh hang naturally and makes a good top and bottom for the lines to go through, knock one up and see the difference for youeself just start with 2 loops then keep increasing untill you get the hight you want then increase 1 and decrease 1 alternatively untill you get the length you want then decrease down to 1 loop Paulus ay chance you could put any pictures up Please Y.I.S Leeview have a look on this site www.knotsindeed.com/learn/

    This is kind of true, but I've always thought that less than a fag paper separation means the barrel is likely to come into contact with the stock during the firing cycle, so it's not truly free floating. Neil, if the fag paper catches it means the gap is a little on the thin side. What's the stock on that rifle? If it's wood, I'd get some fine sand paper and a piece of wooden dowel slightly thinner than the barrel, and gently ease the channel where the paper catches (you'll need to take the action out of the stock to do it) until you can smoothly pass a fag paper all the way down to

    if the paper goes all the way down even if it catches its free floating if if wont its not

    the basics are simple the rest is just practice. dont forget that purse nets are made in diamond mesh and long nets are made in square mesh.

    if your going to make a 6 foot net in 3 inch mesh start with 12 go up to 24 then back to 12
