Guest MY LAW Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 I strongly believe in the saying "if it aint there; you can't catch it " !!!! I go on one mates permission and take 4 or 5; go to another mates and get double figures; go to another mates and 20's and 30's are fairly easily managed; I haven't been on land where there would be enough around to take 100 since the early seventies; but if the numbers are there, there are dogs that would do it ! I know two guys on here that have 60, 70, 's with a couple of dogs, regular, just need to get an invite out with them !! LOL !!Cheers. nice to see your still a member of the i know club ATB Quote Link to post

Guest MY LAW Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 just a few figures to dwell over ,if a dog caught 1 rabbit every 2 minutes for it to catch 100 it would be on the go non stop for 200 minutes ,thats 3hours 20minutes ,that is a lot to ask of any animal. Quote Link to post

WHITEYrs4 29 Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 I just quickly off the top of my head checked my maths, if im wrong please correct me but lets say it takes 5 minutes average to spot the rabbit on the lamp, slip the dog, dog chases it, catches it and brings it back to the lamper, now ive worked it out 5 mins for one rabbit this so called super dog would have to run constantly for 8 hours and 20minutes to get 100 rabbits, without taking 1 second for a break, and thats without all the ones it misses and travelling from field to field! Can I ask what battery are you using? Is it a generator or are you using an extension lead from your house? If anybody on here could take me to a place and catch 90 rabbits in 1 night with a dog I will give you £1500 as long as I can take a camcorder with me! Also the people who are catching 60, 70 and rabbits a night could you put some pics of your dogs up so I can see what condition their in because they must be some fit looking dog if they are catching that many in 1 night. 1 dog 100 rabbits ha ha ha Quote Link to post
