mackay 3,328 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Some of the easiest (if easy is the right word to use regarding hares) I've seen caught were at the bigger end of the scale, whereas some of the best and many memorable runs were average sized. Not saying this is the case the country over just my experience. 1 Quote Link to post

shamus 36 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Never weighed them but our game dealer used to grade them into above or below seven pounds, obviously better money for the above sevens, a bit like grilse and salmon i suppose. Quote Link to post
