scothunter 12,609 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 a rabbit any lurcher worth its salt should be able to bowl old reynard over with ease.i mean if its used for foxes that is. Quote Link to post

Born Hunter 17,775 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 fox if given 100 yards head start not if bolted . Do you think a dog would stand a better chance on a rabbit with 100 yards head start? Quote Link to post

DottyDoo 500 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 there will always be exceptions to the rule, but id say a fox is harder to catch Quote Link to post

obi2 239 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) Some rabbits that have been lamped lots are like mini rockets, seen some take off at amazing speeds. The dog needs quicker reactions at a faster speed and to strike anywhere will do whereas on foxes the dog slows down a good bit to time his strike and it has to b placed precicely orvits a sore face for him.Different techniques are needed for both. But both as exciting as the other Edited June 28, 2011 by obi2 Quote Link to post
