LDR 29 Posted February 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 It'll be on a first come first served basis mate, but people will have ample warning before we start taking entrants........ Quote Link to post
Paid 935 Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 I think the by should just remain as is, it hasnt really caused any upset, if you cant make it, then you know yourself you have forfeit, no one else is to blame. at the end of the thing, the best dog should out, as even if you go most of the way on bys, which would be very rare, you still have to meet a dog that didnt. also the north/south thing, when would that end ? or if following the card, would it go right to the end ? I preffer the hat draw, as then you dont have to run the person nearest, who you prob know anyway. Quote Link to post

The north/south thing just means people aint travelling from one end of the country to the other from the start, once the names came out the hats they would go on a card and that would be followed down the list, so all depends how many people enter from different parts as to how long it'd last. If there were only 4 people enter down there then if everyone is happy, we'll lump them all in one hat and everyone gets the luck of the draw, but learning from this one everyone wanted the first heats as close as possible to cut down travelling..........

Paid 935 Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Just another question, not a critersisum, and I'm sure, a difficult one to work out. Where people run. see, I understand that you need land to host a run, and most should really be able to supply this, but it does seem, so far, some people have rarely strayed from there home grounds. This i have viewed as more of a problem than the "by" thing. What exactly is the ruling here ? I know in some cases, the judges have supplied the land, and this certainly seems the ideal so land both partys cant really call home. Its a tricky one. has anyone asked for land either party doesnt know? Or is it mainly a case of whats the easyest? sorry if i havent worded this right, does any one understand were I'm coming from here ? Quote Link to post

One does understand where you're coming from............. ...............did you read all the pinned stuff at the top about it with the rules etc??? i think most of its covered there mate, but roughly it works that if one person has land and the other doesn't then it gets run on the land with permission, if neither have permission then its down to them to sort out where they run it and sort out a judge, if both people have it they have to come to an agreement between themselves and if they cant then land would be put on in the north east by us and they would be given a date to come up!!!!! Having said that, next year it'll be slightly different!!!!! Quote Link to post
Paid 935 Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Sounds good, preffer the shorter verion lol, maybe i should read all those stickies up the top there some time. Quote Link to post
TOMO 26,217 Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 MY opinion is, evry heat should be done out of the hat, you could still have the north south devide, just to keep the rif raf , down south Quote Link to post

tallyboy 32 Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Right then as you will know there was a few problems with the 'BY' thing this year, we've got a few ideas of how to get round this, but what are peoples thoughts on solutions for it??? Lets try and keep it constructive too guys............ we have a lamping comp within the local lurcher club that i'm a member of and when it comes to somebody pulling out the other person gets the by BUT the person going through still has to go out and run at least 5 rabbits with somebody to witness it, the reason behind this is that the person going through has'nt gone through without running because if he had'nt of ran he would'nt of taken the chance of his dog getting injured, so he would'nt have been able to run in the next round anyway i hope this makes sence atb tony Quote Link to post

I would think that most of these boys that are in the comp will be running their dogs at least 2 or 3 times a week during the season. I also understand were Leeview is comming from when he refers to coursing dogs getting a bye and still having to run so they don't have an advantage of having ran less. The difference is a coursing stake is usually ran over 2 days so the extra run could have an effect on a dogs performance, I don't see how it would have the same effect in the lamping comp when the dogs next run might not take place for a few weeks. LDR you have done a great job keeping this lamping comp on track, I can imagine it would have been easy to have said "feck this" with all the grief and bickering that has gone on. I don't think anyone likes to get a bye but I do think the way it has been ran this year is the only option, if someone can't run on the designated date due to injury they could be given some time, say 2 weeks, then if they still cannot run their opponent gets a bye. That's my slant on it. Quote Link to post
Guest world.hunters Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 if its in the first heat rounds then hopefully the place can be taken up by a runner in reserve if its in a second round match then i think that the person who dropped out should be replaced with the runner that the had beat in the first round. if you have 2 people drop out resulting in a match from 2 others that would of had a by you will end up with odd numbers.

LDR 29 Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 MY opinion is, evry heat should be done out of the hat, you could still have the north south devide, just to keep the rif raf , down south if the rif raf hadnt of entered the best dog wouldnt of won I haven't won yet mate..........
