Whats your opinion on the best lurcher cross?

[WelshVixen 4]

Ive been lamping a few times now (wouldnt really say im a "hunter" just tagged along on a few) and have heard many an argument on what is the best kind of lurcher. Im looking to get myself one so that i can go out on my own and catch what i want to, being a newbie to the whole thing i am asking all you keen fieldsports people, Whats the best cross? and why? Forgive my ignorance, im here to learn.

Every one will have there own opinion on this,,,but its like hpool hunter said all depends what ground/quarry and size fields you will be running? I personally like a saluki x,,but thats maybe because thats all ive really ever owned,Good luck with what ever you choose

Im thinking on a deerhound/greyhound, i like the full deerhounds but i think theyd be a bit too big.
