Bosun11 537 Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Never seen a 3/4 i'd take home..... 5/8ths, on paper, should be the bollox BUT.... So for me, the half cross, is and always will be, the daddy.... (mind which half cross you get though!) Quote Link to post
fox digger 1,086 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 3/8 5/8 and 3/4 are very similar and throw back either way can somtimes make it impossible to know which way they are bred to sombody that didnt know the exact breeding. ive a 3/4 bitch and she is racey but the bull is very obvious in her, i know of other 3/8 bred and they threw more to the hound....... the bitch is very bully looking at the moment!!

the trunk 2,859 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I use bull x near all my life found halfs to slow a 3/8 bull seem to do the job depending on the the dog am running a 3/4 grey 1/8 bull 1/8 collie an for balls brains hes made half an 3/8 bulls look stupid in ever way but av a mate runs a 1/4 bull hes one of the best av seen Quote Link to post
redcharge 378 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Don't think you'll beat the 1/4 as an all rounder.... Quote Link to post
Wales1234 5,490 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Iv got a 3/8 5/8 reverse shes 7 year old and surprisingly does very well as a all rounder !! Quote Link to post
the big chief 3,099 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I think they are better with a faster dog bred in to them to be honest for me they lack a bit of pace so breed a fast type lurcher to a bullxgh and for me that is an ideal dog but everyone is different Quote Link to post
Wales1234 5,490 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yeaaa i would of like to put a fast colliex over her or coursing dog something that would of added coat and bit more speed but iv got two young lurchers of which im happy with soo didnt see the point in breeding her just gone let her retire and enjoy he well earned spot by the fire ! 1 Quote Link to post

roybo 2,873 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I've had both ,3/8 suits me fine, But there is fast 1/2 crosses out there, Quote Link to post
DEERMAN 1,020 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 3/4 no wind ......1/2 when going gets tough wont beat it .................3/8 with coursing blood instead of g/hound best all-round cross for me 6 Quote Link to post
