The best part of hunting for you....

when the dog strikes love it

 

Yep, that's what I like too! Maybe it's because I'm a relative newcomer to the game and my dog hasn't really caught that many (50 odd over the last two years) When he strikes and holds a rabbit I feel a great mixture of relief & pride that the dog had done his job. Maybe once I get used to the feeling of a dog actually catching a rabbit, I'll be able to relax and enjoy the actual chase a bit more.

Being out at night is one of my favourite things. I like how quiet it is and the fact most people are tucked up in bed. I love watching the dogs run and be tested. I love how the quarry runs and outwits the dog. I always admire the quarry and what amazing animals some of them are. I love when you meet a particularly good animal or one that outwits you time and time again and your always happy to catch it but a little bit gutted aswell. Being in the company of good dog lads and having a laugh all night. I dont think i will ever get enough of lamping. I can go out on the beer or spend the night in a club but nothing compares to the buzz of being out transfixed on that little beam of light. Its not just antis who dont understand. The general public and alot of part time hunters will never understand the feeling of loving lamping. How hard it is to get up for work with little or no sleep but you know you have to else you cant afford to go lamping the next night lol.

The best bit for me, watching a pair of eyes come bounding in, feeling the dogs heart beat pick up through the collar as they anticipate whats about to happen

I must of said on atleast 5 occassions last year, i wish that one had got away. Its a strange sensation but you do sometimes find yourself rooting for the quarry

simple answer.............just being out there doing it, forgetting all your troubles as the saying goes,f**k the world and everything that's going on in it,for me its a total get away from it all and watching your dog work on the lamp,well you really just cant beat it
