reddog70 236 Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 just wondered how many die hard lurcher men or women on here have watched there mates come out of the game and got into guns and other methods of rabbit control over the years and your reasons why you have stuck to what you do?... or maybe you do both or various forms etc..be interesting to see what people get from there chosen sport..personally its the dogs that keep me hunting bringing them on and watching them progress etc and the bond this brings they would have to be involved or i think i would give it up. cheers for any replies Quote Link to post
Wild_and_Irish 11 Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Some people may go into shooting because they enjoy the sport but arenpt capable of looking after the dogs anymore or maybe just found a better method for their permission Quote Link to post

nighteyes 275 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 was brought up with lurchers kept them as soon as i was older enough but when this ban came in i give up the dogs for a while done abit of shooting but was never the same. its ok for pest control, but if your into your outdoor pursits for sport you cant beat bringing on a dog and watching it learn its trade Quote Link to post

blackpack 70 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 cant beat the chase etc nothing will ever beat that weather you catch or not. My uncle shoots a 22 but thats not for me yards and kill then wipe everything out at the same time. I know i will get stick for that statement but each to their own. Quote Link to post
