Bosun11 537 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Though i've always been predominantly a lamper, i've always encouraged my dogs to hunt up daytime. As long as they are 'firstly' well schooled with the lamp, they have all took to it well and in the right specks, i've had good success and providing that i'm still lamping 'em regular, i've seen no difference in their night time performance. Working them alongside terriers has also brought them on in this department, so long as they have a good prey drive they do the job. My current mutt is improving all the time in this department and our daily walks usually produce some good hunting now. I wouldn't say my dogs have been any better than someone who does this type of hunting bar anything else but they certainly do 'ok'. Quote Link to post

No messin 2 Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Seen pointer crosses hunt up myself, didnt see them catch on the occasions I've been with them but they worked well as a team. My own bullx bred dogs all lamp and hunt up, field or fell. I can't see why a lamp dog shouldnt be allowed to hunt up through the day JMO. Quote Link to post
