100 bunnies singled handed

[hunter89 3]

just work 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 ,

 

i'm not saying its possible to kill a 100 rabbits i'm saying its not impossible for a dog to have a 100 rabbit runs and need carrying off the fields! but the answer to your question would be if you was out for 5 hours then the dog would have to do that in about 3 mins each time, (5x60=300) (300/100=3 mins)

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 ,

Picture the scene; Dark December'96 night wind howling in their faces, forestry at their backs the rabbits feeding well out 2 lads set of lamping these pastures, they've known about this situation for a long time just waiting for the conditions to be in there favour, the colliex's were picking the rabbits up and retrieving them live to hand, many of them were squatting out in the field as there refuge was "blocked by these 2 lampers" with their backs to the forestry, the bitches were not flying out they just made there way down the side of the beam and onto these squatters from their squat some did run and were caught, the rabbits mounted up and were left to be collected later, they carried on in this mode for 5hours eventually running out of forestry or else they would of carried on, they'd walked 7miles along this forestry that night and caught 186 rabbits between them, they did nt match each other rabbit for rabbit and one did take over the ton.

The 2 lads were mid 20's back then keen as hell dedicated and focussed there dogs equally good at their job as you would expect from them

Their names Kevin Walker+Simon Dixon the land was/still is around Annan, there are members on here who can verify this as being accurate and the truth

thats 20 x 25kl bags of rabbits to make the ton they must have had strong backs and a pickup to take them of the park and as you said thay covered 7mls that night across feilds unless they had a 4x4 and access to the fields it would have taking them all day to carry these numbers back and another shift to gut them to me thats 3 shifts for a night out lamping it just dosent add up and 186 rabbits - 5hours maks 36 rabbits an hour and add on the time to cover the 7mls which would take you on a road 1hr 15mins each way give or take and i will be generous and give you 5mls per hour thats 1hour 15mins each way no chance

personally would not run my dog/s that hard no more than 10 would do me on any night.... each to there own though!

Dont think it could be done now..

so what do you know when was it done or are you just having us on lol.

got to add a bit on though the most ive seen by one dog was 44 and quite a few were taken within 10 yds of the seat plus squatters.youd have to travel at least 100 mile of were i live to see enough rabbits to do that number,never mind the tun.

then a dog would have to be running continous for about 3or 4 hours and on the move for 5 it cant do it . Edited September 15, 2009 by UNFIT

well said lee, to many people THINK about it , rather than getting out and doing it. i had 40 the other night, in two hours, ok there were two dogs , but Tara could have done them all on her own in the same time. also had 45 with Tara in 2 1/2 hours. had with two dogs 3 1/2 hours.

 

how many times on land that is thik with rabbits , have you put a dozen in the bag in 5 or 6 mins. ile be honest ive done that many many times , and if you havent, WEL get out more

Well said tomo, but what gets me is that now a days people do 2-3 hours lamping and think they've done a nights work, dont realise that some people are out 6,7,or 8 hours and their dogs are super fit, not saying doing 100 would be easy far from it, but it is obviouly very possible to done with the right conditions, the right dog, the right gound, and the right lamper.
