Good to see the dogs position themselves for the bolters, the little fast one's are superb, they can catch a bunny before you've seen it!

What sort of length are your hedge nets? Only done a small amount on the hedgrows myself, suppose there a lot quicker to set up than a load of purse nets in rough nettle beds and scrub in the hedge bottoms.

15yards on quickset poles, most of the hedges on mine are real thick and generally hawthorn!,you,d end up looking like you,d bin stuck in a sack with a tomcat setting pursenets! lot easier sticking the net through agap, the rabbits almost always run tight to hedge and i think it gives the dogs a bit more to do
