iceman001979 1,316 Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Hare coursing is one off the most talked about things on here and there is rules but them rules are made by the match men or the men who hunt hares single and if you dont do it there way then your not doing it right or giving the hare respect. Dont get me wrong the hare is the biggest test to any running dog in the uk running ways but are giving to much respect. Yes if you have a long dog and you are into running hare for 5 6 mins well that is all well and fine if you have luchers and slip both dogs that is fine as well everyone hunts in there diff ways may it be lamp single double snow summer if your happy at the way you run you dogs on hare that is up to you. IMAO l think 2 luchers on good winters hare is fair game,also think that if you have match dogs or long dogs it should be one dog and one dog only.if you want talk about lamping hares l think there fair play in big fields with one dog (lamping dog on it) because in big fields on the lamp most lamping dogs wont get near hare (WINTER)but in small fields a hare does not really have a chance on the lamp. But as l said lots off people like see there dogs getting tested to the max but others are just out to kill no matter what and this two setts off people will never see eye to eye when it comes to hunting hares. 1 Quote Link to post

matt the lamper 161 Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 if you want 2 test your dogs then run your dogs 1 on 1 because that fair game 2 on one 1 is ont fair Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Most coursing folk have a deep respect for the hare as a quarry species,the ultimate test of speed strength and endurance of both hunted and pursuer,these people find it difficult to understand the mindset of people who show little or no respect to the hare.The vast majority of none Saluki bred dogs cannot compete on the same level as match dogs,therfore lurcher owners try and tip the balance in their favour by fair means or foul,this is where the disagreements start.You can stand on one or the other side of the fence,or sit on it-but beware of splinters.

weasle 1,119 Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 I think if you have a lurcher that cannot catch a hare fair and square,then you wouldn't be doing your end of the partnership if you didn't do your bit to tip the balance in the dogs favor.Al tough i would draw the line at more than two dogs,or summer hunting.Then it would be up to the owner not to kill all he could find for the sake of it.

I think you'll find that these 'rules' you talk about were around well before the 'match men' you talk about ever came about. Every animal in the contryside deserves respect you just have to take the time out to see why then maybe you'll understand. Each to there own i suppose but i myself will always frown upon hares being run under the lamp and the heavy snow and such, and just for the record i'm no 'match man' either. Just a lad that loves hares and dogs Quote Link to post

Just a lad that loves hares and dogs watching veiw videos on you tube from the 80s and not one hare was giving 100 yards head start they where all kick ups . You say that every animal in countryside deserves respect will never see foxes getting 100yards head start or not lamped same with rabbits and deer etc not one off this animals are giving rules there lamped run in snow and summer hunted day and night. I didnt say it was just match man l said that long dog men also have this rules for hares and l respect that but dont run everyone else down because you think that running single is the only way to hunt hares what about people run hares with beagles???? is that wrong Quote Link to post
