Who misses the Waterloo cup ?why?

[Nige2010 5]

Il tell u all who misses it the most fellas ? The hares themselves . Since the last course was ran they bulleted the lot . Everyone said it wouldnt happen but it did . The antis never gave a flyin f*** about the hares. Id rather see 20/30 hares fall to good dogs at the four coursing events each season than the 1000+ they shot ! I live on the land and its an empty place now without the hares.

i hope all them antis are proud of themselves its a f*****g discrace all them hares shot

playing devils advacate here,,,,, but i dowt the antis wanted the hares shot..... i bet the estate wanted them shot, proberbly to stop lads coursing,,,,, and possibly because the lack of income from coursing means the estate needs to make more from the cereals grown there.

 

it is sad though that the estate felt the need to remove the hares,, and they couldnt let them thrive there.

 

but thats land owners and shooting men for you.... if they had left the hares and told the keepers not to police/catch illegal hare coursers, and left it to the police , the police would have been inundated with loads of lads coursing. by dooing this the estate could have put 2 fingers up to the government for banning coursing. just a thought

IMHO TOMO the antis werent bothered about saving the hares :whistling:their trump card they saw it more of a class thing.We tried Field Trialling Greyhounds muzzled dogs shotguns in place after the hare escaped under fencing and they still objected and tried to prosecute to their loss financially

There was a massive hare shoot within the week of the ban coming in on Altcar sacrilege I know but illegal coursing was a major problem,so what options were available? remove the hares and the illegal coursing problem was removed,the estate has been in trust since Lord Levenhulme's death,they dont have as many keepers now and what they do have are retained by shooting syndicates.

i hate the antis as much as anybody,,,, but as far as the antis are concerned the estate played in to there hands by shooting the hares..... because the antis will say the hunting people and estate wernt bothered about the hares, and lets face it they wernt or they wouldnt have shot them.

 

another thing aswell,,, we all know hares were netted and moved around even altcar had them brought in some times... why wernt the hares netted and moved afterwards,,, of course you will never net as many as can be shot at night with the rifle,,, but they could have saved some ,,,, ££££££££££ of course to much money to do that , when theres no financial gain.

 

the above just goes to show how little the estate thought of the hares. wich gives the antis ammo.

 

and like i said about the ilegal coursing,,, they could just have let the police deal with it... this like i said would have been two fingers to the government for banning coursing, from an estate that was supposed to have been a coursing mecca

ive not bin for a bit but they still most be alot of hares at altcar there they have hare shoots all over england and there still there as [NO TEXT TALK] been there lately bet there is a good few there

[bigbulls 26]

Only made the pilgrimage up from Cornwall once but so glad i did !

Being in my early twenties at the time and living and breathing running dogs, wanting to talk about bull crosses all day to any one that would listen and sitting on a grass bank with the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. I couldn't take my eyes off the ore inspiring events happening right in front of me and was sat with a few of the Wigan and Preston boys who were idly chatting about running some now very well known bull crosses. One of those days where you feel like you have it all !

if you were to ask the average anti wipe out all the hares fox deer rabbits to stop hunting happening i honestly think they would be up for it .they dont give a flying f**k for the animals themselves .with them its a stop hunting at all costs thats what ive found with them over the years.obviously not all are like this but a big majority certainly are .i truthfully wouldnt piss on them. if they were on fire.a hare shoot is a hoorrible site to any running dog man or woman.antis and blairs lot ide shoot the frigging lot and pay for the privelage .

I'm lucky enough to live close by,I think they just seen the hares as pests once the coursing was banned,a lot of crops are grown around there,I'm sure I seen a photo somewhere of all the dead hares been shot,anyway it was the most poached estate in the world,haha your lucky to see hares there now honestly, I walk it regular and drive through there most days it's changed,the place is like a ghost town for hares I hope the new government wakes up to smell the beans and reintroduce hunting with dogs so we can sort it out and make it like it was

Any one with an interest in coursing misses the waterloo, fortunately im old enough to have attended several times, i get pissed off when i think of the good times i had when i could drive down the road and go to the old yorkshire and rydale meets, i feel sorry for the young lads that never got the chance to go to a properly organised meet.Same thing happened round malton when the ban came in more hares were shot in one day than were killed by greyhounds in several seasons. As a shooting man myself i refuse to shoot hares, and would never attend a hare drive id feel like a member of a firing squad.

wish i had the chance i no when it finish but when did it begin

nealy 2 centurys old and the fcuking antis and fcuking goverment and whoever else was involved what a bunch fcuking wankers how could they do it

[TOMO 26,205]

HERES SOMTHING ELSE I THOUGHT,,,, its been said that the hares were shot , so ilegal coursing would be a waste of time.......ok i get that,,,, but the irony is,,,,, it was the very support from lurcher lads that gave the estate its numbers at the warterloo... i bet 3/4 of the crowd were lurcher lads that have poached at one time or another......... you know im right .

 

so after its banned the hares were shot , to stop us lot........the very people that paid the entry money.......... sad ..............
