100 bunnies singled handed

[Leeview 791]

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)

then a dog would have to be running continous for about 3or 4 hours and on the move for 5 it cant do it .

Please read my thread again, I never said the dogs were running flat out? they werent carrying the rabbits off the fields, Doesn't anyone have dogs that walk down the beam anymore?

These lads bided there time till the conditions were favoring themselves not the rabbits and they were abundant on there, the dogs were superfit doing several miles alongside mountain bikes not running trotting to build up stamina a few days every week

loads of math mathmaticians on here any lampers?

 

 

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

tomo .if it can be done ,then it would be done ,i dont see it being done anywhere ,do you ,this with 2 dogs is totaly different.i have seen a lot of good bags over the years ,i have had good bags my self ,but they never come close to the 100 ,the dog might get 60 or 70 ,but the last 30 takes 3 times more effort ,and that is some thing it wont have left in it ,and has for putting a dozen in the bag in 5or6 mins ,i can run 100yards in quick time but i cant keep the same time up for more than a couple of mins .

i never said it either ,i was just pointing out that the dog would have to be on the go for 3or4 hours ,just trot a dog behind a car and see how long it will last .never mind how fit it was

and has for getting out ,i will be attempting the 100 with 1 dog my self ,with a few friends in the next couple of months ,all will run 1 dog rabbit after rabbit untill it cant continue running ,this will take place on a few nights ,and the rabbits ARE there to do it that is why i want to see how many we can get ,it is nothing to do with proving a point .but i wont be posting on here how we get on ,even if it can be done .

I can recall a copy of the then Shooting News with Tommy Mcphee and his bitch on the cover with a nights catch of 122 rabbits he got up in Caithness..true or a hoax? All the best PP.

saying it cant be done is a little narrow minded i think. im not slaging just saying. like i said on the other ten million threads, a lot of lads go by there own dogs standards or dogs they have had and don't think for one minute there are better dogs out there. given the right conditions and the rabbits there is no reason why it cant be done on a full night out

is chipper smith that big bloke with the little head ....mmmmmmmmmm ..or it could of been the little bloke with the big head.....

read the coloum in edrd and i dont really care if its been done or not, theres so many bull shiters about i dont think we will ever know.

100 rabs a night for one dog is alot of exertion on any canine. unfit , if you try do do this , your as sad as the rest of the people who go out lamping for numbers instead of rabbits

you be lucky to have 20 down my way. they are persacuted 12 months of the year

did 108 in the early 80s in caithness, but that was with 2 dogs at that time mcfee the magiceon was doing it regullary

the place was stuffed with rabbits then, we took over 1000 in seven days with ferrets nets and dogs,i was in my 20s and fit and had

more time to get and keep my dogs fit then. still get some good bags now,but nothing on that scale

right ground, right dog, right man ? could be done.

i wont be doing it to say i have ,i am only going to see how many we can do with one dog ,because i have been invited to a place that has a serious rabbit problem ,and this is on 4 big farms ,the person reguarly ferrets between 50 and 60 in a hour to a hour and a half on a week end ,most of the time the rabbits are stuck up with the ferret behind them because there are to many in a hole so he digs about a foot or two ,and can pull out up to 15 at a time , he also shoots 20 to 30 with a air rifle at night on a quick walk and this has not made any difference to the damage they are doing on the one farm ,he has not even touched the other farms ,and none of these farms has ever been lamped with a dog to his or the farmers knowledge ,i have never seen this amount of rabbits that he says is there ,so like any body else i cant wait to see it ,years ago i had large bags of rabbits ,but i dont go out after them very often ,so its not a ego thing ,and 2 of the lads that are coming are novices of this site ,so it will be a good learning curve for them as well .
