daytime dogs

[watchman 256]

did you mean old?

regardless of their age they panic and in densely wooded area's and smash into things and get caught up,in the open during the day it would be very different imo

No i ment the odd one's .Those i have seen [bANNED TEXT] they hit woods and dont panic just seem to glide through in leaps and bounds usually leaving the dog standing.

must be the same ones iv seen

[Trigger 26]

nothing hard about taking deer a decent sized game dog will do it no problem, apart from that it must be one of the most cruel uses of dogs. i have no time for it or people who do it.

 

i have never been into hare coursing but have run a few in my time and it takes a helluva dog to give a good show on a fit hare in small fields with law given. ive taken a few but my dogs are rabbit dogs and a hare course used to be the equivalent of six rabbits so there was no point.

 

my hare chasing days were pre ban by about ten years, if i see a hare in a field i will leash the dogs these days its just not worth the hassle and often the farmers quite like them if there is only a few so why upset them. Permission isnt easily got.

why do you say that taking deer with a dog is cruel? i dont understand why people bang on about it being cruel.

I know wat you mean i think its people who have never done it and just go on wat they have read or heard imho its the most natrual form of hunting known to man and one that setts the adrenelin flowing like no other.Nature its self is cruel and takeing deer with dogs is way down the list of cruel acts in natrual behaviour in nature its self.atb dell

you speak alot of truth there poacher3161.

is in occasional?or as in strange?

im talking about very dense woodland maybe its very rare but seeing is believing,and ive seen it more than once

I am not doubting you but it must have been occasional surely.

not saying you haven't seen it your self,just that it is not a regular thing is it?like a lot of scenarios its about opportunity,and when it comes knocking you hope to take full advantage

yea it seems to have gon .... the anti bit made me laugh lolololol :whistling:

[stroller 341]

Im not an anti by any means but i have my opinions about deer coursing and those that know me respect that.

 

I agree it is one of the oldest sports and any hunt with hounds has its beauty and savagery, but i beleive its not the hut that repels me its killing of what in my opinion is a beautiful animal, and up here there are only a few about and i would like to see a few more.

 

i hunt for sport and a bit of banter i kill a few rabbits by ferreting, bushing or shooting and thats enough for me, hunting isnt my job its a hobby, i love my dogs and some days more than the kids, i have a lot of stuff going on in my life that means i dont have the time a lot of people have to go out 7 days or nights a week and even if i did i probably would still look for something else than hunting to fill the time.

 

anyone want to discuss my faults or call me silly names is more than welcome to talk to me at the leeholme lurcher show near coundon co durham, my pictures on my avatar so you can recognise me

i have ran them all imo fallow and roe are easier to catch than a hare but you try catching them chinese water deer them feckers can run and there turning ability is awesome ive had real good coursing dogs not be able to catch um

my old bitch only ever took 1 hare and that was only cos she snatched it out its seat.caught cwd regular though with no real hassle.

very impressive dog. walked round woodland nearly everyday for about 2 years coursing endless deer with mates as well and alot of the dogs were far from average and from all those days only one catch. lost interest in the end during the day. seen deer as put glide through dense woodlend and the best of dogs just rebound. with dogs ranging from 40lb to 100lb being honest the terreirs had a better chance and that was slim lol.

i totally respect your views mate.on the subject of not many deer by you it may be because the older stags have become infertile with age yet still posses the strength to win the rut.hence population shortage.very good reason to hunt them i think.get some fresh blood in and watch population grow.jmho.

Thanks watchman, its just peoples opinions and in my house even my son doesnt agree with me on certain hunting topics.

A good strong roe that knows its ground and knows what a lurchers is will test a dog just as much as a hare and thats a fact

[ROCKO+BECKY 4]

takes a very good dog to do both roe and hare daytime when they at there best by any means and even more so if it being done regular pre-ban

You know nothing mate everyone knows that deer are big clumsy things that run round with there eyes closed just waiting to run into something. A buck rabbit is more of a test to a lurcher than Bambie FACT!!!!!!!
