whippet 99 2,613 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 i must admit to respect the hare as quarry, the old fashion way is to do them day time. every one to there own, its illegal either way now in england. by far the best method of control- catching the weeker ones and the strong healthy ones to live and fight another day . what ever you chose is down to how you respect the lady of the night. good luck Quote Link to post

pink head 28 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 flint67, i disagree with you too, my opinion which we are all entitled to, including yourself look at the lad, he is young, thats the type of folk our sport needs the up and coming youngsters to be getting involved!! well done mate, great lookin bitch you have there he 34 . the photo pre ban.

flint67 2 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 pre ban or not , lamping hares is dishonest . .dishonest to the dog , dishonest to the hare flint67 if your were out lamping pre-ban and there was a hare in the field you'd walk away would you then? Simple answer . .yes , id switch the lamp off. Hunting is about respect and traditions. Hares are coursed in the daylight and given law. .if you walked up a hare and she squatted then took off 6feet from you , you wouldnt slip the dog would you? Youd give her 50 ,60 yards and if you really wanted to prove your dog even further head start. I started hunting nearly 30 years ago and the guys who showed me the ropes had been hunting 20 or 30 years themselves , its just how i was tought thats all . .its an honour thing. That said i will leave it at that . . Im obviously in a minority now Quote Link to post
Edd_Wiltshire 9 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 F*ck me lads. With all of the anti crap going around the internet, police in all areas talking about targeting hare coursing. Can we not agree on one thing, we all love hunting, but we dont all like the same kind of hunting. Some like ferreting only, some lamping, some daytime(pre ban) and some shooting only. It take all kind of people to make a forum like hunting life. Lets just agree to disagree and there will never ever be a finish to this thread! Pretty sad state of affaris when a thread like this degenerates into a slanging match in less than 2 pages. If i wanted to listen to this kind of rubbish every night, i would get married!
