The original question was "what does an easy earth look like ?"

IMO if you know what your looking for 9 times out of 10 if an earth looks easy, it will be easy.

If you don't know what your looking for and are trying pups IMO you'd save yourself a lot of time and bother by going out with someone who knows the game (and not someone who does their digging on a high stool.).

But like I say, that's 9 times out of 10, the other 1 time has happened us all.

Great when it goes right, when it doesn't, you bring the youngster home, help him forget about it (give him a dram, LOL) and hopefully the next time he's tried he'll win.

Neil you'd be suprised (perhaps not) at the people involved in our sport today who cant read an earth, just look at the name calling by a member on here when some tried explaining certain things, it may not be 100% foolproof but reading an earth is an important part of our sport even moreso when entering young uns

I'm joking about everything you howler take a joke. If your on about my comment to fox dropper I actually agree with 99% of the things he says on here, also a handful of other people. I could put my five pence in too and was about to press the 'post' button yesterday but I actually thought feck the hunting life it's not worth it.

It was just about the question of the topic. As been said the eye can usually tell you most of what you need to know about the earth, gradient of the ground, if the entrances are nose diving on a steep bank you can more or less know your in for a few feet, made up ground etc. What I find more about the smaller earth's we go to are not so much the depth...but the tubes can be tight. Rooty etc...and as we know some young dogs don't like to go tight, some don't mind it. What I find more is we dug certain earth's a lot of times nice and easy 3-4 foot all over...Then some day you get a stubborn fox that uses every square inch of the earth and half of it you didn't even know it exists...radius wise and depth wise, two tiers etc. Once you get to know the earth as we do with most of ours by now it makes life a lot easier...A few of the earth's we can more or less tell the route he's gonna go as he does it 9 times out of 10...different animal every time of course this is game bird protection so every fox is shot.
