Now that they have had some experience on the lamp, bring them out in the day.

You shouldnt be proud about catching a lamped hare. A daytime hare is much better. You shouldnt need to double em up on a lamped hare anyway. A terrier could catch a lamped hare, with it running around in circles bumping into things and nearly blind.

Come on now, people have there own oppinions on lamping hares put i very much doubt a nearly blind terrier could catch a lamped hare lamped hares still test YOUNG dogs and rews dogs are still only YOUNG and i am sure he doesnt want to rush them, and i am sure that next season they will be ready to tackle the daytime runs.........and if you spent the last year training pups and they take a hare on the lamp after all your hard work you say thats nothing to be proud of, i'll leave it at that....... well done rew good effort

Fair enough,

Getting the confidence up then, is that it? Looking forward to proper daytime hare, that will be a day to celebrate

Best of luck with the dogs REW

I think its great that his dogs are picking up the hares on the lamp. They may well me easier to catch than a daytime hare but they are not a guaranteed catch - the dog still needs to do his bit.

 

What I would say though is that mid March is no time to catching hares day or night IMO Let them breed in piece and come back in September.
