places that are poached

It might not be rocket science but there was a lot more to foxing that point and slip. Not everyone had dog that could do the job. No skill involved? Nonsense not every fox came into the call some were lamp shy and took a great deal of coaxing or skill to get close enough for a slip. What about the nights with no wind. Theres an art to doing things the right way as there is with any kind of hunting

I hope Obi2 has read this?

 

Maybe then he will realise why his "number of foxes" thread was a bad idea.

 

I know its not really the sites fault[although in the past the mods must have been f****n stoned at times] but this and other sites do hunting no favours,you dont have to be Sherlock to see whats still going off do you,at least magazines are edited well before they get published.

 

Any dickhead can kill foxes with lurchers and a lamp,test or no test,thats half of the problem,NO SKILL NEEDED.

 

Thank f**k im just mooching about with a rabbit dog these days.

well if thats the case ile give you a knock to come with us show us how its done.

 

So lamping foxes is a highly skilled craft then is it

 

Ill give you a few pointers,walk into wind,have a powerful lamp,maybe a call or if you want to go really ott use some kind of bait to draw them to a particular spot.

 

Or you could[and probably do] buy a landy,drive the fields,smash a few gates/fences and throw a useless heavy bull x that couldnt catch me at them,pretty popular round here that is.

its like reading a book easier said than done so you must have bagged up every time you went out pre ban if its as easy as you make it sound ??

 

"its like reading a book,easier said than done" so its easy to say "i read a book" than actually read a book??? maybe its hard for you to read a book mate[being a thick c**t] but i manage pretty well.

 

What thats got to do with lamping fox ive no idea,well exept thick c**ts can do that is.

my reply did sound daft lol dint mean it how it read ye an youve had tons of fox thats why you have to post ya pics on here when you get a couple to get a pat on back ya thick c**t lol

so when your struggling to get a slip and coaxing and using skill how is that testing for the dog you just said it the hardest part is getting the slip and the dog has no control over that

all am saying is the hardest part is getting the actual slip after that any dog with half decent speed will catch them ive seen some good fox dogs bull x deer hound x pure greys seen dogs that can end it quick some on impact ive seen some draw it out can someone one tell me which was the better fox dog one that takes them down and grip there neck and end it quick or one that back ends them makes a mess loves the battle theres them that keep out the way of the stick and those that love it which would you rather had

if were talking hunting dogs getting tested on speed and agility while in persuit then we have deer,fox,hare for speed both hare and deer are faster then fox if its agility then the deer can jump higher, further the hare is smaller harder to strike on both hare and deer run for longer fox can get through gap and tight fences the dog cant but so can the hare and the deer will probably jump it same as the hare can go to ground just like a fox the ony think a fox has the others ant is teeth

attenborough no someone thats seen and done enough to no that for speed and agility while in pursuit the fox is bottom of the heep yes

[WILF 47,547]

I have been told that back when it was legal, some foxes will twist and turn with the best of them, hug the hedgerows, not come to a call and generally be very hard to pin down.........other times they will sprint in to their death, 4 yds and its all over.

Some would make a fight of it and others would be put away quickly and easily.

No different from any other wild animal really...........

 

 

 

Are they a test for a dog?, yes, sometimes they are..........but not always

 

Are they a test for the hunter?,.........just as above

The skill was in presenting the dog with at least an even chance of making contact with its quarry not just hoping for the best. The test was for the dog to make the most of the opportunity. Its all irrelivant now anyway unless you live in ireland or abroad.
