No I wasn’t meaning you I mean people I know, but you’ve just said it yourself a handful a season so you do lamp hares then? Don’t know why coursing men get so uptight about it even the ones that say they’re strongly against it still do it, don’t see why it’s such a big deal 

ones  i’ve lamped this season been for me pals young whippet 

id  just rather run em daytime plenty to go at on the lamp aint they without running them mate

I don't lamp much at all these days so when I do I don’t really bother with hares. I don’t eat them and bitch is funny with them too she’ll eat anything but won’t touch a hare so don’t see the point in killing them quick on the lamp if I don’t even use them

Don't blame your mates, hares are sitting ducks in the beam.

You’re right there, I’ve nothing against it people can run whatever they want with their own dogs but I know lads that’ll slag people off for lamping hares then go do it themselves with daytime bred dogs

They want gelding

Maybe I should breed my own. Reckon I could get my hands on a retired greyhound bitch. If you want something done right you should do it yourself i was always told

Night time sex 

With a daytime lover

I met her on the Friday 

She was the best 

Come Sunday morning I needed rest 

Cause she didn't shave 

She didn't use Veet

She used my face as a bicycle seat

I don't lamp with dogs and I don't like shooting but I just remember a farmer getting me to shoot some hares and I shot 45 in two hours. I think one of them made one hop in the beam. I didn't know they froze like that until then. Sickening night.

You probably need one chasing your pan lickers for hundreds of k's because they don't want to go back to you, and who could blame them.

I've never really gone after hares but I liked watching the dogs run the odd one they kjcked up. The areas I hunted rabbits there weren't many hares but the area I shot them had no rabbits for around 40km's either way but was infested with hares and fallow deer. The deer were all colors with plenty of white ones and even some a bluish color. There were hardly any roos, the farmers shot them out and the deer took over .

We were beating a small conifer plantation in the middle of a huge area of arable hoping to flush a few ‘roos to run with the lurchers, but Sod’s law, there were hares shooting out in all directions but not a single ‘roo !

After I came home, I was talking to my Oz pal and he said he shot 25 hares at a farmer’s request, the lads I met had no interest in running hares, they were far more interested in fox and pig.

I was quite amazed at this as the huge areas of land and numbers of hares would be a paradise for coursing.

Cheers.

If I was beating a plantation out for kangaroos I definitely wouldn’t be slipping on hares either
