runem 533 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 How deep can we dig really lads ? Come on let's hear them and see some pics? deep digs fact or fiction,,,,,,,,,,if you have worked terriers for a few years ,you would know the answer yourself. My deepest dig just over 16 ft,went back to car to get my camera came back five minutes later and the hole had collapsed in,,i was very lucky not to be killed. On a different note it was in the days of the old clicker boxes,it could not pick up the dog at that depth, however i could hear the dog steadily baying with my ear to the ground. 4 Quote Link to post

Rabbit Hunter 6,613 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Deepest successful dig was 16 foot with a jcb to one of my dogs. Like has been said theyre dangerous for man and dog and not something i'd enjoy doing every week or even every month. Quote Link to post
jake824 517 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 We had done a few spots and dropped a dog in a place on the way home . Never no more than 1.7 here my mate said. Box was reading 4.8 to 5.1 . One lad headed off home saying he had to get back and the keeper sat and watched me and my mate. We broke through to the dog just after 11pm. FairPlay to the keeper he did back fill with with the under keeper for us. Quote Link to post

Fellman Mark 607 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Deepest I've had was a single holer 3m of hard clay to my old Russell bitch about 8yrs ago Quote Link to post
hjckcff 1,738 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 ive had a fair share of hard digs but rarely have they gone deeper than 6 ft. the average around me would be between 3/4 ft. only twice in my lifetime have i had to step a hole and i could count on one hand the times i have had to dig deeper than my hight, most of the deeper holes here are in bankings. these are generally the easy bolts if done right. and i do prefare to bolt . even from the famous scottish two footers Quote Link to post
