morton 5,368 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 99% OF LURCHER MEN A LOW LIFE ARSE HOLES 60%HAVE NEVER HELD DOWN A PROPER JOB . Thats a tad harsh,id say 95% ,being serious though in all my time with lurchers,terriers and ferrets i found the lurcher owners generally came 3rd,yet the lads and lasses i respect the most usually owned a lurcher.I spent 7 years in the ,s without a 9 to 5 job,it interfered with my hunting and me and a close lurcher mucker worked to earn brass to eat,feed and tend the mutts and put petrol in the motor for our life in pursuit of a chase,honest or otherwise.Ive nothing but respect now for the youngsters entering the game,the genuine types,i know how difficult it is to find work now,in my time jobs where plentifull,now they are like hens teeth,so id spend my dole a little wiser,graft the dog a tad longer than the folk in employment and keep my CV,s flowing.The biggest arseholes ive encountered in hunting often lived in an Ivory tower. 1 Quote Link to post

morton 5,368 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Can't see much difference whether you need your hand holding whilst lamping or out daywalking? That is unless your scared of the dark? When i started out it was always in company and i sought the company of like minded souls to share the experiences,now i prefer the quiet isolation of lone hunting and prefer the solitude and the less demanding nature that company cannot give me.The days i hunt in company,Boxing day etc,seem more enjoyable after the enforced hermitage,i used to be scared of the dark,thats why i take a dog along now. 1 Quote Link to post

Many of us once owned that obsessive outlook on lurcher life,in my case it took a decade or 3 to re-invent my hunting lifestyle,there is as much enjoyment and gratification from a less demanding hunting lifestyle now,in a decade or 3 you may concur,until then keep at it mucker. 3 Quote Link to post

king 11,972 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 For a long time, I would have gone lamping on my own. Still do occasionally. The only disadvantage is when your dog makes an exceptional catch and you've no one to share the buzz with I usually phone Samaritans to tell somebody I had a job working for the Samaritans. I tried phoning in sick but they talked me out of it lol. 4 Quote Link to post
bob84 189 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 I always lamp on my own unless my cousin tags along I have a feeling next year he'll be out more as he got his own pup up till Christmas I was out 3 4 night but every since Christmas everything gone pair shaped. 1 Quote Link to post
