heart of wales 19 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Rabbits on ground that favours them (such as a golf course or football pitch) are an excellent test of a dogs speed, turning ability, brains and stamina It has to hare for me although rabbit on a golf course comes a close second Quote Link to post

weg 0 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 If you could only run one species with your lurchers, which would you hold above the others and why? hare for me a real endurance and agility test Quote Link to post
snoopdog 1,256 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 its got to be hares for me..as they are the test of all tests.for speed turning abilaty...{spell}...and stanima..and most important..brains..as a good dog will try to antispate..the hares next move to keep it in the field...and timeing its strike..the hare is one hell of an animal..and you need a dog of the same substanse to catch them on a regular bases.they are my chosen quarry but i have respect for all quarry and the dogs that pursue them ...i am hopeing my dog will turn out to be allrounder...he dosent have to be the best at one certain quarry ...all the best to all hunters no matter what you hunt ...or what your chosen quarry is...

Berkutchi 0 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 If you could only run one species with your lurchers, which would you hold above the others and why? I enjoy all types of running but Id have to say singlehanded hare coursing is to me the pinnacle ,I beleive the hare is our supreme athlete,and to see him given fair law and coursed by a good dog on big land in January is as good as it gets,a spectacle I never tire of,its exiting,dramatic,poetic,and aesthetically ,and emotinally fullfilling. i 100% agree mate!
