  1. Who owned it back in day walloper
  2. Ian asked me to contribute in the second scotty12. It's not been finalised yet
  3. 2 weeks minimum with the white deed
  4. In mho, lucas hare is stronger. Had everything under control and knew exactly where it was going to feck the dog over . Had that hare been on the slop where Kim was running, it woulda been ripping even more yards of daylight. Lucas doesn't actually bend/pressure that hare once it's so strong . However, there's absolutely nothing anyone can criticise Kim on . A true warrior with plenty gears and grit . Top top animal and a joy to watch . Now there will be lads with fast lamping and rabbiting dogs thinking, she couldn't miss . That hare and ground would do these types of dogs big end . But
  5. Didn't lucas owner run him on 4 the day before on same land . Not a wise move in hindsight
  6. Ffs Banger , we agree again lol
  7. That defo would help . Different land/terrain even a thermal dont help
  8. Eddy sweeneys bitch that broke her leg at the comp . All the coursing men had her down as winning till she snapped her leg in a ditch
  9. I owned a beast x grey . Decent enough dog . Poor feet. Greyhound blood for you
  10. Don't be daft bro . Give white death 3 weeks off . Feck everyone else
  11. Thing is trig , slower types run average hares longer than clever aggressive types . And the slower types owners believe they come across real un regularly. But there are that 3 maybe 4 runs a season that you come across a hare that's absolutely bionic. That's where your 4/5/6 minutes comes from . And if a fast dog doesn't have decent steam , then the springs are going to pop . Lads with aggressive fast runners want to stick to 3 runs . The plodders owners tend to want to move the goal posts to 5 . Horses for courses
  12. I totally get what your saying fens. I'm other way round . Watching a fast aggressive dog that knows a real hare from a decent one . Adapting yet still forcing mistakes . That for me gets the juice flowing. Each to their own buddy
  13. They limeys need some Scottish frosts lol
  14. In Scotland you need a mouth and gears . But need to hang in there if needed . How many dogs have you seen that made most runs into wars . Good dogs put average hares away fast , put good hares away in minutes. Very very few real uns out there that go over 4 minutes . Jmo . I'm no fen expert in fairness
  15. What if you were matching fens ? Quicker the better I'd say . Games changed .but yes everyone loves a war tbf
  16. Think al stick some on you tube. I canny sleep . That'll sort it lol
  17. Most likely he did . But i think in hindsight he'd realise it just encouraged more tadgers into our beloved pass time . Glad im just an auld ratting man now
  18. Where did you get them from pal . I travelled down Cumbria to buy a hob . He was pissing about last week , first outing for him . He bolted 2 . Yesterday he bolted straight away. Pissed about for 5 mins then went very deep and was in deep for a good 20 mins . Only surfacing after putting a few out like cannon balls . Hes very very friendly. Lad done a great job rearing them.
  19. Gunt, imagine auld bang lived in Scotland or Ireland. He'd never have went out . Ooooops I forgot. He doesn't go out . Pulling ya chan bang . Lamping on big arable, can't see the harm in today's climate. Gets a dog fit just incase someone gives you an invite daywalking. Each to their own lads . Just be true to yourselves
  20. Mick . Don't you think banger makes a valid point. Great dog men have packed in and been replaced with fools ripping up ground. I said years back when the videos were being made for armchair fans that were too feart to go spin a few . Here's a question. " do you think the videos made promoting a video in a hummer was a good idea "?. For me it just got young lads with easy money interested and looking for chasers . As I said then . Bumbers in hummers . The fan club didn't agree with me other than romeos owner .
  21. Tbf banger . I couldn't agree more . I even said it on hills and fens years back . I was only one saying same . Most members were licking arse and back slapping the fools . Well said banger . At last we agree
  22. Get a proper course of antibiotics in him pal . Happened to me 12 year back . Whatever spiked it scratched the bone . Infection got in . Toe off . Sickner
