  1. Is that not cheating and making it easier for the dog. .when on foot i regularly loose gear when it goes beyond the beam..but the dog come's back for the next go or keep's trying in the dark which usualy result's in a miss..or sometimes a kill..personaly again on this subject i think lamping while driving field's will produce mediocre pooches that could well excell if walked normaly.. Why would you think it as cheating? As a personal thing... i have seen more gear and got more runs by venturing off road... i rember the first time i did it. Back of summer in a vw passat estate i r

  12. f*****g hell. What do you do? How can it do it too?But before I get too excited, what's your blotto line? After all 'turnover is vanity, profit is sanity' lol. Profit runs at about % Is that before costs (rent/rates/tax) or after No rent or rates at all... and its before tax I do 'service' not 'product' However, i have something else coming up soon to do aswell. Im taking a little gamble on it, but if it pans out well, then itl make me a happy man

Just start off small distance and gradually get further away... it doesnt harm now and then to switch the lamp off and recall the dog so it knows lamp off means get back. Keep building the distance up ... eventually throwing the ball in darkness so the dog has no idea where you thrown in..... then light it up and send the dog. It may not work for every d
