TOMO 27,370 Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Fu(k numbers... Is all about run too catch ratio if the dog runs 12 rabbits and comes home with 10 happy man, You can only catch whats there 30 rabbits anit nothing if its had too run too get 30 catch my drift, Enjoy been out lads we all get old one day.... As long as the pots full and she feeds herself happy days THERES a slight flaw in that theory tiny,, you say catching 30 is nowt if they ran ,,, ide say the dog had great staminar if it ran that many, and was obviously on hard to catch land,,, such as you and i have here in the midlands, on winter weat with thin hedges.. i think the point your trying to make is if your on easy ground, and the dog has a poor catch rate Quote Link to post
Guest dances Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Most I've had in a night was 8 or 9, not had large numbers of bunnies on the lamp Quote Link to post
Malt 379 Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 7 is the most I've had, but he's 3 & his first two seasons were interrupted by injury to him, requiring dew claw removal, and two knee operations which I only seem to get called in for in the winter. If he makes double figures this season at all, I'll be happy seeing as I can only manage short sessions. Quote Link to post

I dont travel much so lamp within a 10 mile sort of radius iam happy getting 10 on foot Quote Link to post
