well said, but as I have said be fore good hare killers with no good breeding often don't produce, you cant beat generations of good blood and I AM NOT saying breed from untested stock, but trust the blood. and as for having lurcher blood that's where it all began. -

I agree with that regards having pures around for an outcross, it strikes me that over the years,however line breds have been bred together with the occasional saluki out cross so must be almost genetically saluki, yet are in most cases so different from pures. -

in about 1972/3 I bred a litter off fly beddy lurcher x saluki to a whippet, the land I ran was tight and hedgy typical north notts land, the dogs produced looked like strong whippets, very sharp and could kill a decent hare, I know they weren't whippets but I had to tell the tail lol -

obviously we are talking brown hares here in the uk pre ban, there is only one pure that has been any ware near able to do this with any sort of consistency, but if we are honest, individuals of even this bread of pure, that can do it, are rare beasts indeed, with the majority lacking something, ware would we be without it, still searching in my view. -

obviously that's a lot, but I sometimes have cockers left, and you cant sell for less than the going rate, or they get bought and sold on by people if you leave a profit on them. -
