lurcher330 2,301 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) My 3/4 greyhound 1/4 collie was a good hare killing dog in his day ,10 year old now but he would take 3 or 4 turns out of them and would make his strike at any time of the season,but saying that he had a few head over heals moments as well Edited February 20, 2012 by lurcher330 Quote Link to post
Between#The#Lines 2 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Every hare should be aloud to get out off the seat no mater where you hunt.Be it Ireland ,Scotland,England,Wales it does not matter.The fields could not be that small to slip straight out off the bed.Am sure there as been plenty hares over the season that have been caught in 2, 3 turns.This are hares that are caught on a ware and caught sleeping in the bed or young lever t not knowing what the danger is coming towards it.If you do catch hare like this slipping straight out off the bed do you really count it as a catch?????

juckler123 707 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Cracking dogs lads Ive done my share of both pre ban out for a dinner and out for sport if out for a dinner id let them hunt their own but id go more early and late in the day so the hares are on the move more often than not or at least sat feedingnothing better than watching a dog hunt a field properly but saying that If i was going for sport id go later in the morning in the cold months dinner time and the dogs would be on a slip and the hare given a good start. Ive found running the dogs free helps them slow up quicker than when they are run off a slip only. owned some quick killing dogs in my time as well but they also had enough wind when it was needed interesting post Edited February 20, 2012 by juckler123 Quote Link to post

DogFox123 1,379 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 In my eyes the chase is everything, Wouldnt it be good if every hare that is caught could be returned harm free without injury. We can all dream Quote Link to post

realdogman 14 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 In my eyes the chase is everything, I agree mate, but thers nothing worse then them dogs that take ther time and grind the hare down, they have got to be busy Quote Link to post

DogFox123 1,379 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 I was just saying wouldn't thinks be good if all dogs were light enough mouthed to catch the hares injury free. The killing of the hare was nothing to me as I never ate them Quote Link to post
poacherslad22 122 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) I personally like to give them a head start ( depending on the size of the fields as to many yards) as it's a sport at the end of the day. We cant class this as a sport if we don't give it a "sporting chance" Edited February 20, 2012 by poacherslad22 Quote Link to post
