Cajunrules 8 Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 Not an argument, just wondering. Why is it that in the shooting section. If a guy shots a rabbit or 2 or 3, it is a massive long and drawn out write up.... with 100's of lines and different pics of the same rabbit.... I think if, if every lurcher man on here wrote about every rabbit we caught, the site would crash with to much imput... Really dont understand it, I can shot a rabbit, so can my mum... I cant run after one tho.. That is an interesting question RFYL. Haven't got a clue why the write ups are longer though, or why there is less bickering on those sections (as Watchman pointed out).

runforyourlife 361 Posted September 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 I'd rather more pictures of dead rabbits & decent write ups in the lurcher section TBH. Pisses me off when you get a picture and write up of a young pups first few rabbits in there and it barely makes it past page one, then you get someone posting a thread about Hancock, Minshaw or any one of the other famous internet dogs & it turns into 20 pages of childish bickering & bullshit. Makes me wonder just how serious some of the serious dogmen on here really are... Yeah, totally agree with you maltenby but bloody hell dont mention the name "minshaw" all hell will break loose, or you may even get kicked off, lol. Adebate is good for any topic and forum... And a good argument(not swearing or abusive or agressive) can do no harm, as long as everyone comes out friends at the otherside. Sometimes we have to agree to disagree, everyone has there own opinions but there are people on here, who dont even go out and catch any game... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ideation 8,216 Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 I know what you mean RFYL, i do enjoy reading te right ups, but sometimes it gets VERY in depth, with 24 photos of the 8 week old kit thats been shot, from every possible angle. Like many have said we can learn a lot from them in regards to their positive attitude and helpfulness, but at the same time there is SOMETHING i can't quite put my finger on which i find a little creepy or strange. . . . it's like a group of boy scouts (as i have said before) who spend a huge number of their posts telling each other how wonderful they are and handing out 'slut points' right left and center for every kill. I think at the start i would like it if the running dog section became more like the air rifle section . . . . . but after a while i think it would be a bit boring. On a seperate / side note. Considering the move forwards with regard to accuracy, power etc and that many air rifles are silenced, multi shot and fairly deadly, do you think there should be some regulation / licensing on them. . . . i'm just not sure how safe it is having anyone being able to get hold of a lethal fire arm?

stabba 10,745 Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 I regularly go out with a shooter....He,s one of the mildest and humble blokes you,ll ever meet....im sure if he wanted to do a write up on here it would be both entertaing and ifformative. but he chooses not to and just gets on with it. If only all the lurchermen were like him this forum would be a much better place...atb stabba Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Considering the propensity of a certain sector of society favouring a certain type of dog IE bull,staff,rott,ETC and their more than lethal attributes one has to wonder whether dogs should be licenced/regulated,see I am just not sure how safe it is having anyone being able to get hold of a lethal canine. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
