Inspired by Nathan,s success with his and F O D Redneck,s getting his lad 1 <cool dad or what > i made a trip to the nice peeps at Leics airguns and made a purchase .Well after a quick very foggy drive home out came the PR900W in .177 and some cardboard died an early death . Initial thoughts ,light as a feather ,simple design ,Chinese standard woodwork but works and a nice previous owner has fitted a PSI /Bar guage .And my first .177 air rifle so far so good ,pudding will be proofed when i go and see some pigeons and discuss how they like to be fried ,pied or diced .

  16. Fans of coursing/saluki type lurchers seem to think every lurcher man should have that type, they also find it very hard to understand when folk don't want that type or don't share their love for that type.

  20. Personally, I think it's got f**k all to do with collie blood in a dog. Seen dogs of all sorts WITHOUT collie in em doing it over the years, even some pure sightounds. Pretty much the same when people keep saying about dogs opening up when in pursuit, 'oh it must be have whippet in it'. I've owned and worked a few whippets and NONE of them opened up. Worst dog I seen for opening up was a 1st x collie/grey x 1st x bull/grey. Point I'm making is, if a running dog of any type is started to work before it's ready ie, too young, unfit, still mentally immature, or slipped on unsuitable rabbits etc,

  25. I have never seen the amount of pigeons as I have just recently. They always seem to drop in on the Beech-mast this time of year in good numbers but , I have never seen the numbers I have this year , thousands upon thousands. Once they clean up the Beach-mast I suspect they will hit the rape hard . I anticipate some good shooting on rape this year . I think the good weather this summer means successful nesting and maybe 2 clutches reared .

  29. I only lamp my lurcher and i have seen him put the brakes on because of hedges and miss rabbits due to this, i kept lamping him and he has over come this issue, a lot of his strikes are near the hedge and he has built confidence and awareness, i wouldn't day he was picking his runs, just learning field obstacles. If you want a dog that goes full tilt into obstacle and not have progressive experience, then be prepared to own a lot of dogs.

  31. Yeah, slipped and run til exhaustion when the dog is still unfit, too young, inexperienced or whatever. Think how you'd feel when asked to do 15 -20 flat out 100 yard sprints when you're say 12-13 years of age, and you have no proper fitness levels. You'd be put off for life

  32. I would say with rabbit numbers has low has they are I would say dogs pulling up at hedges will be a thing of the past, around by me if you get a couple of runs a night you think it's your birthday.

  33. I know a lurcher that will pull up at hedges or brambles and even bare ditches and watch a rabbit run off,the dog just don't have it's heart on rabbits but is a very different animal and will bust through anything without care on Rats,the bitch just don't do fluffy bunny but just likes it a bit rougher?.

  37. Too right Killed plenty of hares, back in the day, with all sorts of miscellaneous hybrids... Obviously, when the fabulous Saluki started to influence breeding projects, things changed drastically,..but for the average Joe,...the hunting life went on,.. as usual...

  38. allsorts of lurchers went into the melting pot to create what we refer to as coursing dogs, I acquired this bitch from Leicestershire 30 ish years ago because she was supposed to carry blood from my old 70s dogs she looked very lurchery as did allot of those early Leicester dogs and surprisingly these broken coated lurcher looking ones are still common, sadly she did not make the grade, but a lamping mate liked her and she made him a decent dog for many years and mothered some decent lurchers in retirement.

  42. Ive a coursing type x lurcher and id say hes a pretty quick killer run alot of small type land with him. Ive seen him have a just over 4 minute run i know how long it was as i started filming he was carrying an injury to his wrist and lacked a yard on the hare but done enough to keep on it this was on a couple grass paddocks and killed it eventually by wearing it down. Having a couple minutes in the tank and hanging in there is alot different to over running stuff in my opinion.
