Why don’t you keep them then instead you keep coursing dogs lol some man Quote Link to post

Do you not have dogs out of razor and romeo? And a stubble hare puts up a 10 times better run than one in a foot of snow 1 Quote Link to post

I think running g them in snow or summer is a pretty Shan thing too do, I reckon however that hard ground in summer deffo wrecks em more than fresh snow no matter what your running , try running less hares but do it when grounds right for it 1 Quote Link to post

chrissi19 64 Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) This is the first time I've been on the hunting life in about a year and it's only because of this specific topic, and I remember why I stopped coming on in the first place, too many people giving advice from behind a computer screen when they probably do very little hunting if any themselves, and that's a fact because I know of specific people on here that fit that category, I'll happily take advice from people that are out week in week out like myself but people that kill a couple of rabbits a season and come on here giving lads advice need to take a right good look at themselves ? my pup killed one this morning in cover but he should've killed more and when faced with a real hare he didn't impress me, he's injured himself on a bit of wire so he's currently on the couch recovering, but no matter what happens with this pup and the next one after this and so on at least im out there aiming for something and not sat in my house making excuses for average, the people that lie to themselves will never have a really good dog because they'll convince themselves their average ones are good enough, that doesn't do it for me if you're not going to try and succeed what's the point in taking part, pretty much all I've got to say on it ?

blackmaggie 3,377 Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Sounds to me like your chasing the holy Grail well dont bother you will end up frustrated and have you have given up on the pup already what's to say the next one and the next and so on will be any better maybe your getting your ambitions mixed up with your and your pups Capabilities just work on that and enjoy 3 Quote Link to post
