    Yours and Stormyboy's parcels are shown as being with the courier for delivery. I don't know why it has taken so long for them to get to Wigan. Probably the cobbles on the M6 slowed the mule down. Arrived on Wednesday mate thanks. Looking forward to trying them. Good idea using crimped wire-wish I thought of that before using the braid! Wrong man Was for Nicepix bud.

    you can daze a rabbit and not your dog even when running towards you. If you hold the lamp low(shoulder height or lower. there more chance dog being effected. I always thought thats why the lamp is held high and kind of shinned down to quarry to control where the light hits and the glare. To daze quarry and not the dog ??????????? keep the beam in front of the rabbit , I'll leave it there also getting a bit boring lol Spot on. (no pun!) And you are in a better position,wind permitting, if the rabbits are running towards you-an old hand told me years ago,better lamp them COMING

    You can modify any lamp blue eye style. Use the stick on blue tint strip folks used to put across the top of the windscreen,usually with names stuck on! A circle on the centre of the lens cuts down glare big style. I've done it to all my lamps plus a cowl on the outside-all you can see from a distance is a thin bluish beam even in mist/rain.

    I assumed by "down there" thats what you meant. And the rabbits aren't any faster lol.

    Not in Cornwall they don't! Hares are pretty scarce.

    Old dig,new entrance? No sense at all- You really are on drugs. I doubt you've even seen a fox. Sort your head out ffs.

    WTF does that mean?? Like I said....... You've said you've seen one Plummer-this is what you base your 'opinion' on? You shouldn't really comment on things you have no experience of because it casts a lot of doubt on your point of view doesn't it cupcake? There is a saying-a wise man speaks because he has something to say. A fool speaks because he has to say something. Do us a favour and have a think about that before you post one of your illiterate ramblings......

    Try chipping your joint or shortening your lines a bit bud, the drugs are f***ing with your mind.

    Thats THL you're describing there.

    I think you'll find the short courses are for vertebrates, rats , rabbits and moles. Grain fumigation is a specialist area requiring individual module training,same as buildings,aircraft,boats etc. Each one is a separate module.

    I was gutted when you lost him mate,my old girl was lined up for him! I had some fun with Piper though, little sod started killing below after a while.

    Not a case of jacking it's a case of stamina-being able to run on. Sighthounds aren't noted for their stamina,with the exception of Salukis and maybe deerhounds. 40 rabbits is a good feat for a lurcher, and exceptional for a pure whippet. Bloody well done that dog. if you keep your dog fit it should have no problem running on. Of course a dog needs to be fit but all dogs have their limits.

    I had a dog in about 1980 that was vampire x pagan, he was used as a digging terrier and was a first rate dog,had a few before him and a good few after him and if I had a chance of any of them back then I would pick him. And mole265 he was not the least bit snipey and from what I remember neither was vampire. Would that be Toby by any chance?

    I wouldn't say that was out of the question for any decent whippet, providing the ground is right and rabbits are there. It'd be a poor excuse for a sight hound if it couldn't manage 40 rabbits if they were there to be caught. Well done Trev, looks a good night It's defiantly not out the question for that whippet,,,,but i think your wrong saying any sight hound should catch 40,,,a good lurcher on good ground I would say should catch 30... How many chaps do you know with a whippet or sight hound that have done 40 ? Agree Tomo. Not many.

    PM'd you

    Excellent vid Nicepix. How much are these traps? Edited-Just seen the other thread.

    The original post asked how many tolerate a hard mouthed dog bud. A hard mouthed dog is one that excessively bruises rabbits-crunching,shaking,live or dead to hand or dropped in the middle of the field. If its badly bruised the dog is hard mouthed, simple as that.
  22. stormyboy
    If a dog bruises rabbits more than neccesary,its ragging excessively!!
  23. stormyboy
    Thats what hard mouthed means surely? Most dogs will lightly bruise some rabbits at some time, as has been said it's unavoidable picking them up at speed. A dog that rags excessively once caught is hard mouthed. So what is the definition of 'hard mouthed?'
  24. stormyboy
    And the topic is about hard mouthed... Not tagging the shit out of the rabbit . What does that mean?
  25. stormyboy
    Exactly-put up with=accept a badly trained dog. See above! Maybe that should read some people put effort and training into a dog and make a decent working animal that rewards the time spent. Some dont.....
