up to them quick style,settle a bit have to have a look at its quarrys strength and then up and down the gears .if they can do that for 2 to 3 mins ,4 times a day that will do for me ;)

nothing wrong with that mate ,especaily day time ,alot of people on these internets all go on about dogs size weight colours but never seem to think ie clever fast dogs can put alot of game in bag ,nite time and day time ,its the first thing above good strong feet ,in last few years saw a good few young pups as you describe ,but hard to keep that type of thing goin,

My older bitch was an exciting dog to watch as any i've seen, real do or die, BUT, that resulted in a long string of injuries and her being nigh on retired at 4 when she should have been in her prime. My pup for this season, i really hope, should be a bit more sensible. I love watching the nutty ones but now would rather have a dog i can run regular without spending half the season repairing her. Fingers crossed

I must admit I'd rather watch a dog run a hare real tight, turn for turn: much more exciting, but of course, the faster the dog, the less wind it has: as a general rule. Yes, I love to see the slower Saluki types thinking on their feet, boxing a hare away from cover, letting it run in the open, then working it away from the cover again, but the up and at 'em dogs just give more of a thrill. Had a little bitch who could do 3 minutes at top speed: she was only 22", hopeless on plough, but once they got on the wheat it was game over, 90% of the time at any rate. There's always going to be a super hare which out wits most dogs.
