Mark.B 0 Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 I have got to agree best Lurcher book has to be Rogues and Running Dogs followed closley by the Complete Lurcher by D.B.P.Both these books were my bible in my early teenage years. Quote Link to post
whippet08 8 Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 ive read a few and in my opinion jakie drakeford understanding the working lurcher brilliant read excellent training methods, hunting tips,bringing on,recall everything,plummers books are good too,also the countrymans weekly has usually a few pages on lurchers every week.
