SLIPUM88 39 Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Has anybody done this with lurchers and what's it like never really been a horse man unless it's 2:30 at aintree recently went on my aunties horse and had a cracking day mooching through the woods covering land that would take hours to do on foot so have been thinking about getting the dogs out with it what's your thoughts has anyone done this and how did it go in theory it should be brilliant plenty land to cover plenty exercise for dogs and horse and plenty fresh air for me my dogs are well trained and obey me but I'm a novice on horse and the last thing I need in the woods on my own with two dogs is an unruly horse what do you think anyone with first hand experiance would live to hear from you Quote Link to post

Bosun11 537 Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 There is one or two in the US that hunt this way. Don't know anyone over hear that does it but i would find it interesting if someone had enough land at their disposal to hunt across on horseback to lurchers and tell us what they do?

Polkey 70 Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 I was talking to some one that rides the other day about the same thing. She thinks it would be to much noise from the horse and give anything a clear warning you were coming and anything that didn't and broke cover would spook the horse. Quote Link to post
