The Slipper in organised greyhound coursing won’t slip the dogs on a weak or “spent” hare. They slip with 100 yards law as the object is to test the dogs against each other, not to kill the hare.

Id of thought people would slip on the strongest of hares, with fair law, to see  how good their dog is.

Different scenario if you are out for one for the pot, I’ll take kick ups or out of the seat if that’s the case, but for sport , you want good hares and fair law.

Cheers.

You can tell how good a hare is just by looking at it, not running it ???

As Rudyard would say; “ you’re a better man than me, Gunga Din” ! LOL !

Maybe they can, but I certainly can’t ! 
I can tell how good a hare is once a dog is slipped on it, but no way I can say “ that hares got five minutes in it” or “ that hares only good for a minute” just by looking at it standing or sitting in a field.

Im certainly no expert, but I’ve seen and ran more than my fair share of hares and could probably say, “that hare with the huge head and torn ears looks like an old buck” or “ that little hare looks like a leveret or small doe”, but I wouldn’t be so presumptuous to look at a hare sitting in a field and say “that hare looks like it’s got five minutes in it so I’m not going to slip “ !

Ive heard a lot of BS in the lurcher game, so now just smile indulgently when I hear some things ! LOL !

Cheers.
