Jo i told you last night when we were out,   The reasons i dont run doulbed up is dont see the point in it, Its not like were trying too fill a quota for the game dealer ect, I like seeing one dog o

very rarely double up,but the odd occasion i do,then we ensure that both dogs are slipped at the same time in the same direction.Too many dead dogs from slipping halfway through a run! atb shushy

edited to say above post you read my mind lol surely once your pup comes to adult hood malc1 he will be ran single surely, as on a rabbit two lurchers is over kill and arnt really being tested to the full, anyone can admit a doubled up anything is easyer to catch then ran single.

imo its not always easier to catch things running doubled up. some dogs will push there self harder when doubled up and look good, but dont succeed very well as single handed dogs.

aye from the competion trigger2 is that what you mean doubled up, obviously only one dog can put a catch in but the odds do turn in your favour having two dogs on them surely. you are right tho mate when doubled it ain't always the best dog that gets the catches. the way to sort that is see them single like you agree that gives you a true indication to how good they are, do you agree trigger2 or do you think different

That's very true often the fastest dog push the quarry away from the slower dog.
