Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'd love to see the dog that will excell both day and night. Personally I dont think they exist. Quote Link to post
CorkyJohn 808 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I disagree Dan, if a dog has half a brain it can excel at both. I only lamp now but a few years ago I expected mine to lamp all quarry, work with terriers & hunt up through the day. A decent dog soon learns what it can't catch but by that I dont mean picking its runs. All bullx's I've kept will go through any cover but know when I switch the lamp off to return.

harrylongears 19 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 most dogs will work the lamp to a certain level speaking from exsperince with me own dog my daytime dog will lamp but no were near as good as me lamping bitch hes keen enough and fast enough just seems to lack brains on the lamp. but other wise on daytime stuff seems to have brains in bundels but iv never rated cousing dogs on the lamp they were bred for somethig else if they were that good at lamping more people would use them for that purpose Quote Link to post
iceman001979 1,316 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'd love to see the dog that will excell both day and night. Personally I dont think they exist. If a dog runs both night and day what do you except off it quarry wise?And is it about numbers as well??/ Quote Link to post
harrylongears 19 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 not about numbers its about the sport? Quote Link to post
lazycunt 59 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 im only reading between the lines here but i think only a complete novice would ask such a stupid Q i aint reading between the lines and only an idiot would post such a stupid reply,man asked a fair question some say to much lamping early on can cause daytime dogs to pull up,most lamping dogs will not smash in cover ,were as u want your day dogs not to pull up [bANNED TEXT] the course goes through hedges reeds etc,so each to their own personally will only lamp day dogs for fitness on open land. idiot without reading between the lines if hes talking about a rabbit dog it should be hunted day and night but if he talking about a dog for coarsing during the day then it shouldnt be at rabbits at all is tat plain enough ballbag Quote Link to post
