Meerihunter 7 Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 I've had some of my biggest bags out in heavy rain, keeps dogs cool prolonging stamina. I find the rabbit dislike going into longer grass/crops though but on short grass like on golf courses I find the rabbits are out in good numbers despite the rain. Quote Link to post
reynardhunter 3 Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 maybe the rabbits ar the smart ones stayining in out of it! I,ve always thought that myself terrier man, you hear stories about big bags on stormy nights, its never happened to me, Quote Link to post

Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Hey Brock I was out the other night, pissed down and saw plenty of them around, just bad night for you I guess!
