lol rabbits fast  and quick lol 

if a dog can’t kill a bunny there’s something wrong 

I've always found taking day time hares easier than rabbits unless the rabbit is in cover or as mixy ,

you think a whippet is faster off the mark then a greyhound ? 

a whippet make ok rabbit dogs but i’d say a grew make a much better one if just rabbits 

and a descent coursing bred for lamping bunny’s not many pure whippets  would keep up  unless on real good going arable farmland a good coursing bred will beat a whippet on bunny’s run all night and course a few hares at first light mate 

Yes a whippet is quicker off the mark, probably because it is lighter and more agile. We had a racing grey bitch that won many city races, she was never beaten out of the box and weighed only 32lb, on long runs the bigger dogs would pass her. I've hunted rough country with pure whippets and their feet are fine where the greyhounds are shredded. I only hunt daytime myself so can't comment on lamping. I have a 3/4 whippet 1/4 grey atm and she does ok.

So how many day time rabbits did your coursing type take last season compared to its bigger cousin,very few I'd say unless bolted by ferrets .

Me old beddy lurcher use to give mouth when she run in a wood or any where real rough, she couldn't hang on we a hare but never open up on them, I just put it down to frustration and I never started to young but ever dog different 

I seen few bedy lurchers yip with frustration,my bedy grey will yip but only in cover and it's like you say all down to frustration of wanting to catch ,I think it's the terrier in the mix
