    What's this bloke about ffs, he's took a few lads for mugs by the sounds of things. Sometimes you've got to ask yourself if something is too good to be true...... a stranger giving away what sounds on paper a good lurcher I'm suprised at how well you lads have taken being duped, if this is all true surely he deserves a little word.

    Good write up and pics Johnny, glad to see young Tom is still going strong the bug should last for life now

    From what I've seen I would agree the 3/4 suits the lamping more than the first x, she has that extra bit of speed, although the first x will hit any cover and catches because of this, she's got that never give up attitude

    pre ban they done red coats single handed and doubled up. i think dog over bitch does matter imo. but thats another debate. the one beddy/whippet is the blue dog in the pic Nice looking dog mate,
  5. NEWKID
    our first x was beddy dog over whip bitch, the lads who we got her off worked the beddy in a variety of ways. They're not on here unfortunately as they had some interesting tales, they were next door neighbours and their houses were shrines to hunting , we spent longer than aticapated picking her up once we started yapping. I've been offered out with them but not made it yet.

    The first x is about 19-20" she's 14mnths now so this is her first season, she's getting better and basic training came very natural to her, she retrieves well was hunting up a bit if she missed but the last couple of times her recall was better. She's very head strong you need to be on top of her more so than th 3/4 who is a placid type of dog.

    Bitch on the right 3/4 1/4 whip beddy, bitch on the left 1st x, turning into decent rabbit dogs, will catch on the run and hit cover. They suit the smaller paddock type fields I run down here, the 3/4 is quicker runs the beam well but I'm struggling with her retrieve will retrieve dummys every time but is hit and miss with live rabbits , the first cross has more drive and will stop at nothing, we also run some big crop fields and they catch there ( the 3/4 suits this land more). Not everyones cup of tea but for lamping rabbits and ferreting there useful enough. The 3/4 litter brother has made

    Hence the reason why it's getting harder and harder for lads to get permission, it may not all be true but it's a shame that some people do ruin it for others, Can't your mate who farms the land sort you some permission.........
  9. NEWKID
    Have you got ferrets? as I found it can be easier to get permission offering ferreting first then once your on and trusted farmers are happier to let you on at night. Be polite, try to look half decent ( don't need a suit, but cap worn backwards and your ass hanging out of your jeans wont help lol) and leave on a good note even if it's a no " thanks for your time , heres my number if ever you need help with controling your rabbits in the future" or something like that. Persevere mate and once you'v got a little bit you'll find if you treat the land and the farmers with respect you'll be off

    Loved this thread, good pic and stories and a wealth of knowledge being shared. Don't know any of you lads, but you come accross really well and the pics speak volumes on the effort you put in, I would say there's a lot of jealousy involved from some people which I don't understand, some should grow up ad give credit where due. Thanks for sharing and all the best

    Cheers all

    All day yesterday it blew a gale loads of cloud bit of rain, perfect I thought............. but At 8 30 as we set off accross the fields there was not a breath of wind, the sky was clear as a bell with a sliver of moon out....... it's always the way. My young bitch managed 5 , ran a some new fields last night with 1 cow field holding a few rabbits, she had 2 out of here. Had a look in some big stubble fields at the end of the night which had few in them, left them for a better night.

    Bagman

    NEWKID replied to undisputed's topic in General Talk

    I was a very happy bag man from a young age ( although I couldn't carry much), I was absolutely guted this year when Dave, who I walked hundreds of miles with from around 6 years old, passed away. I would happily be a bagmn tomorrow for another walk out.

    Good write up mate, love watching th dogs around the cover, sounds like your 2 work it well.
  18. NEWKID
    Good luck lads, it's gonna be wet weather gear as well, it's hammering down here now. Your right carp man, no moon, loads of wind and a bit of rain it drags you out of the door. It's funny how most people think your mad to get exited about bad weather.
  19. NEWKID
    All set for tonight, lamps charged,blowing a gale, dogs ready can't wait to get out. Meeting at 8 on another new bit so hoping for a few bunnies later. Good luck to any one out tonight

    Nice one mate looks a decent night

    Had one similar mate, was at a little party at my brothers house and the missus was doing my head in we had a bit of a row i sai F*ck this I'm going out for a walk with the dog. Had my lamp in the van so grabbed that and the dog and walked up over the back fields and kept walking onto land I had never seen before until I was completely lost. I had left the party at around 11-30 and finally found my way back at 5 in the morning after a constant yomp, I ended up coming onto a road I knew about 3 miles from his house.

    You should also remeber the type of land your running as far as big or small catches, my young dog makes a lot of catches along the hedge line if it's harder for the rabbit to get in ( sheep fence, walls, thick bramble ect) it works in the dogs favour obviously. Obviously you need to have the rabbits there in the first place, as bosun said as long as she tries her best for me I go home happy.
