Aussie Whip 4,181 Posted June 30, 2020 Report Share Posted June 30, 2020 I've seen a few really good dogs that were useless,throwaway animals to the former owner but in the right hands proved their worth.Some self titled good dog men go from decent dog to decent dog disgarding them until they luck upon a one off champion just to feed their rep,these aren't dog men at all,they are wankers. 3 Quote Link to post

If you keep a decent standard and don’t budge from it you’ll get failures, it’s what you do with them that matters. A lot of men will just lie about it and say the dogs class when it’s not, make every excuse they can think of for a bad performance, this gives the impression that these men must be top class with dogs cause they never get failures but really they’re just full of shit Met a few lads like that over the years every dog they seem to have had or keep now are champions till you actually see them run in the flesh then that’s all you get from them is excuse after excuse.

Had it loads, dogs kill 2s 3s every time out then when you see them run they don’t look like killing a thing. Life’s too short to tell lies & make excuses for duffers, best cutting your losses and starting again. I had a dog jack on me not too long ago, it’s a horrible feeling but always better doing the right thing. 1 Quote Link to post

two crows 3,342 Posted June 30, 2020 Report Share Posted June 30, 2020 why has this thread turned into a hate coursing men thread from a rabbit dog thread, lol, the biggest problem with getting a good coursing dog is the brown hare is harder to catch consistently than people think, so the failure rate will always be high, regardless of breeding. 1 Quote Link to post

Some of the best dog lads I’ve met have been in their 20s & some of the worst in their 50s, age isn’t a reflection of how clued up someone is 2 Quote Link to post

Shadow100 1,066 Posted June 30, 2020 Report Share Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) I don’t bother with coursing anymore it’s all historical conversation, let’s get back to legal rabbiting. Edited June 30, 2020 by Shadow100 Quote Link to post
