London coursing lads

If you want a dog that settles in behind a hare for 5,6,7,8, minutes, and can do three out of three, that’s fine.
If you want a whizz banger that can do one in quick time or maybe even two, then that’s also fine.

I used to like the former, but due to now wanting to be on the land of off again quickly, I now prefer the latter.

“Horses for courses”, or “Hounds for grounds”, as they say.

Your dog….your choice ! 
Cheers.

 

It's cheating though using a non native distance runner to catch a native sprinting animal, iv'e alway been more impressed by a normal regular lurcher taking a few over a season than these coursing line bred cheats killing dozens each week,lol..

No better feeling than bringing a dog on from a pup...giving them a spin at 10/11 month old and  watching it take it's first rabbit/fox/deer etc...no drug comes close Neck😔

A pic of a few dogs owned by London lads in the past. The white bitch was the litter sister to the great grand dam to lucky the dark destroyer i believe. The brindle bitch was a fx saluki greyhound.

Some certainly do look quick, but then you think is it a poor hare, as I said, I think it is hard to guage on video, you don't get the sense of speed that get watching it in real life. I do think our hares down here are better than the one's up the North East though. Lol

I’ve had dogs that were straight lined by hares all over the UK and Ireland ! LOL !

Cheers.

Never ran any further down country but your spot on up here the hares know exactly where they want to go and it’s up to the dog to work them of that destination and be will to jump and hit cover this one of mine probably catch 2/3rd after they hit cover 

what I love the most is when he’s boxing it from a spot and it all most seems like there at a stand still then drops that gear and scoops up ….. in that moment there nothing else going on in the whole world other than that dog working that hare 

When the hares run and stay out in the open and try and take the dog on like those easy English hares we think we've hit the jackpot up here lol 


 

can't beat it mate no better site in the world. What age is your dog ? You mostly running down the borders ?

I can’t be doing with it mate a both lurchers iv had that was half coursing dog was same. I wouldn’t take chance again haha when the few iv had that didn’t have coursing dog in were brand new in every way other than they couldn’t run hares like a coursing bred 

 

if I ask myself what’s more important, having as little stress as possible withy he dog or a couple extra scabby hares, then it’s same answer everytime. Keep your hares haha
