Mr Jones 4 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Yes Andri, would be great if you could copy and paste it in to the thread or provide a link to it. Cheers pal. Quote Link to post
andri 73 Posted September 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Chipper doesnt think any lurcher past or present could do 100 in a nights session. His best in a night was 73 and three hares and that was two dogs.He said some of the lurchers he has seen and owned were as good as they come and they werent cabable of it. He would like anyone who has done it to tell all to EDRD. atb andri Quote Link to post

bud9 79 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 i dont think any dog will catch 100 rabbits in one night becouse the dog could not have a hundred runs and still be standing but thats my thoughts my dog could not do it thats for sure Quote Link to post
hunter89 3 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 i dont think any dog will catch 100 rabbits in one night becouse the dog could not have a hundred runs and still be standing but thats my thoughts my dog could not do it thats for sure if a dog is super fit, had wind and was given things such as electrolytes etc how can a 100 rabbit runs be impossible when you compare it to a coursing dog that might have 5 runs 3/4/5 mins a time Quote Link to post
UNFIT 0 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 (edited) just work out the fastest time every rabbit could be caught ,then add the retrieve time of each rabbit ,then include time for the dog to recover after each run ,and see how long it would take to catch 100 rabbits ,and how long the dog would have to run for .then see if it is possible , Edited September 14, 2009 by UNFIT Quote Link to post
