Guest Frank Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Its not numbers to me, just being out working my dogs, is what makes me tick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bosun11 537 Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Its not numbers to me, just being out working my dogs, is what makes me tick. Fair play to ye Frank, a man thats contented..... A rare thing with running dogs these days. For me, as I get older i'm swaying to much of the same, though I've always liked the numbers game and had some fair 'ol hauls BUT to play the 'numbers' game the bags don't have to be the biggest...... it's 'where' and 'how'...... Taking as 'little' as four bunnies off a speck where most fail to take one is numbers, two foxes from an area lamped to death at the end of the season is numbers, taking 'game' on the 'QT' where others 'fear to tred' is numbers...... :secret: Numbers measure your dogs and you (though they should never be deterministic to your dog!) Either its bragging rights or under yer hat.......playing the numbers game...... Fair play to ye! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Coney 3 Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Yet to hit double figures this season but still enjoying it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Neil Cooney. 1 Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 I don't lamp nowadays but most was 45 with 2 dogs. But the best was 14 out of 14 runs in 50 minutes. Quality but I have to admit when I was lamping hard it was a numbers game. After all it is pest control. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
