CarraghsGem 92 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 g What are the laws on dogs with deer in Ireland? Cheers banned, few lurcher lads pay any heed to it though. Cheers. However you can still run the hares legally? nope! but as above.... few pay any heed round here my area is swarming with hare as well I see. In southern ireland it's legal though, no? im not 100% on this but i think it might just be, but garda have better things to do than chase hunting lads around the countryside, NI psni are more vigilant when it comes to hunting. ive a mate up there who is followed everytime he goes out with the dogs Quote Link to post

Chid 6,441 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 size the irish hare is slightly smaller ... the irish hare is closer to the blue/mountain hare than it is to the brown hare ... having said that the irish hare wont go to ground like the blue one will.... the irish hare as little black tips to its ears normaly Quote Link to post

kevin from bristol 95 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) there no average differance in speed between the two its the hare on the day ,ive coursed both and theres not much between them the irish hare is like the ones you find in wales on the hill tops bit smaller than the english brown with slighly shorter ears i find that the ground over there is on average smaller than whats coursed over here so it seems harder Edited February 11, 2011 by kevin from bristol Quote Link to post
mossyh07 64 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I find the Irish hare has a more distinct colour and there coat seems to be smoother looking than the browns. I've only had the Irish vs, Brown discussion with one person who has hunted both and he said the Irish had the edge. Please god I'll get to cross the sea and put a bend in a few browns and see for myself some day. Quote Link to post
