jeppi26 1,855 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 £135 to £200 for that costs nothing to go run bunnys or even £30/£40 to make one of those Quote Link to post
neney 1 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Thats a bit much, think may have to look in to making something or get the husband to run round the field with the string and lure attached too him with the rabbiting would love to take him out but bit worried then would I have to worry about him killing cats and little furry dogs?? also do I have to finish off the rabbit? sorry complete newbie to hunting with a lurcher my dad hunted with beagles Quote Link to post
Its_grim_up_norf 577 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 you dont want to go and run bunnies incase he kills furry little dogs or cats? where are you running bunnies pets at home? yeah you'd either have to pay the money, or make one yourself. ive not found a cheap one anwhere unless someones knocked one up themselves.

Molie1337 35 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 I have seen one made from a caravan step with a starter motor attached,empty plastic cotton real of welding wire for the lure string, attached to the starter motor and a button/switch for making it go, attach it to the car via cig plug and away you go.....

neney 1 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 That made me giggle what I meant was once he's got the taste to hunt are like my neighbours cats safe? Quote Link to post
Molie1337 35 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Surely encouraging the dog to chase anything, lure or bunny, is only going to encourage it to chase, be that rag, cat, rabbit skin or real rabbit and everything in between? 1 Quote Link to post
fox digger 1,086 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 very cheap to knock up lads and isnt beyond the capabilitys of anyone who is a bit handy at the ole DIY.get old starter motor of any old car, even a motorbike one if your not putting miles of string on it, and a spool of some sort.(electric fence wire spools are perfect or the mig welding wire spools). 1 Quote Link to post
neney 1 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Never thought of it like that! not bother about him chasing the cats as long as he doesn't kill them none of neighbours would be impressed with me Quote Link to post
