Iv'e never seen a brown hare that could outpace a decent dog completly they always have to resot to turning to shake off a good dog. I have seen blacktailed jackrabbits that could outrun good dogs but they are not common. every once in a while I will run into one that is in a different league alltogher and leaves my dog eating dust. but brown hares NO!! all the best Dirtwinger Quote Link to post

Totally wrong. What with you and the guy above you with a greyhound coursing for 7 minutes. What is it school holiday time? I will say only this, as there are obviously some people on this thread who know jack shit about coursing.MOST people ,UNLESS they are timing a run ,WILDY overestimate how long it lasts.
