A good day and night for me never equated to double figures,2 and 3 rabbits was a long days slog,then we ventured into the Dales.What a mistake,you soon lose your love of hunting and chase numbers,cha

Easier left in bundles to.pick up  later

You must have different standards to me cause catching 60 plus rabbits with one dog on the lamp is not easy. But then again it is to you so each to there own. 

It is easy when your lamping certain grounds

Yeah the ground makes a difference same as if there rabbits that have never been lamped but a have seen dogs that are very fit and are useful dogs but they would never catch that many in a night no matter how fit they got. That’s when stamina and breeding comes into it. A have seen bull crosses catch a dozen then that’s them but av seen small whippet type take 20s an 30s. Horses for courses.
