bryanm45 787 Posted September 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Do you get the ferry from Fishguard (how much) and its sort of between limerick/cork how longs the drive, do you race your dogs Bear. Quote Link to post
BEARINATOR 2,871 Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 The car on the ferry is £79 http://www.ferryto.eu/ferry-from-fishguard-to-rosslare-in-ireland/?sems=G-c7-a142-k10138-p Not sure about the drive though as I'm going to stay with some friends for a few days, legal dog work and not just daft rabbits and rats . My mate races my greys as I ain't got any interest in a artificial hare Quote Link to post

birddog 1,354 Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 aye good find, impressive speed and close races but is that really coursing ? what happened to turn's, go bye's, wrench's etc ? would a drag lure not give the same result ? how far did they run ? no real test of strength, agility or stamina imo, can we really compare that to true open field coursing ? 1 Quote Link to post
