WILF 46,646 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) I once ran12 one night with a single dog and broke the dog.........I make no appologies for doing it, but with hindsight it was a rediculous thing to do and I would never attempt that type of thing again on big open fields like that.......I had to ask myself why and the honest awnser is because they were there and because I got carried away.......none of them were kick ups!

TOMO 26,064 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 I,v just been speaking to a fella on the phone , he tells me that ( pre ban ) he took 19 hares one night running two twelve month old dogs ( singly. ) Now leaving aside the rights and wrongs of lamping hares , my question is CAN IT BE DONE ? I think it is probably possible ,why anyone would want to? Would be my question. ile answer that question t ,,, "money",,, if your getting £4 - £5 per hare,, if you can catch 30 40 hares in a week,, its good money... rember the lads doing this 20 years ago were poaching,,and out of work in thatchers britain,, it wernt about sport. all the best mate.

DottyDoo 500 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 is this another member with anothyer account at the wind up.whether he was telling the truth or not.he is an arsehole running dogs that young against hares,although i dont vbelieve a word of it. surely the reason most folk would call the dogs owner an arsehole for running dogs that young on hares, would do so, on the basis that the dog couldnt handle said hares....... looks as they them dogs could handle them, all 19 a them, i applaud the guy for havin the time to get the dogs fit, an the balls to try an see how far he can push his pups...... well done i say Quote Link to post
