C.green 3,231 Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 I know of a dog took everything in its first season smaller deer in numbers fox hares day and night rabbits would bring a shot bird to hand was marking warrens and snapping up bolters as a pup bring a fish out of water find and flush stuff. To me that's just a handy dog to have around a proper allrounder is abit harder to find. 1 Quote Link to post
Allan P 1,152 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Who the f uk wants an all rounder. Who has time to hunt everything, all different ways, as long as mine do what i want em to i be happy Who mentioned hunting all different ways, to me an all rounder is a dog that catches previously mentioned quarry by running after the fecking things. With or without a lamp. If your out and about a fair bit you will bump into all different quarry fairly regularly but that's just my take on it. 2 Quote Link to post

Wild-Bill 500 Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Something that can run anything it bumps into on the lamp and give a good account for itself 2 Quote Link to post

Shaddy93 840 Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Something that can have a good roll around without making a noise or letting go, catch and kill a fox single handed, pull a deer, catch a handful of rabbits and catch a hare, wether they make hard work of any of the quarry or not if they can still do it then imo it's an all-rounder 3 Quote Link to post

We hunt foxes each weekend. Anything else bolts and a lurcher lad slips he won't be there the following week. I'm sure lads will disagree. Quote Link to post

Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Iv known lads to go out and prove the dogs worth, and fter a season of being oit flat out the numbers thing definitely wears thin...and the loss of enjoyment that goes with it. Without doing numbers of each species you will never find out whether it's the all rounder everyone craves Like has been said as long as it catches u what you want it to now an again, noting else matters really. But to me a all rounder is a lurcher that can follow terriers in the day bushing etc and be ok at ferreting. And catch rabbit hare and deer...but have enough speed in the dog to make it happen more than it doesnt. Quote Link to post
