Great stuff, this sport has always been one of those which I just love to do with the dogs..
-
If I knew where Squeak was I probably could, but hes like the scarlet pimpinelle, I had a copy but lent it out, and as usualy, it didnt come back..The onlt thing that spoils it is the swearing, but if you turn it down, there is some interesting footage..
-
There was a video made by the lads who did Lurchermania..WOW, but it was never released, but there were copies made if anyone can get a copy of this one it is worth a look..

whats the most rabbits caught in one night

you wana check your books again boy, come off the stage now with your 216 in a night,you wouldnt get that with a pair a cheetahs! he he he hup! Dont have to look at books matie, check a previous post; "It wasnt beaten where I live matie.. and had to ammend it, it was 216 with 3 dogs..got wrong off Kevin, in my book for some reason I put 213 too, but the scores that Yella and Sophie got are the same, it was the third dog Jack that got 55" Thanks for pointing it out though, well done you -
Yip Helen, there is a big gulf between working deerhounds and show deerhounds..not just in size..
-
Canny size Helen, but Ive had a pure deerhound that killed 27 rabbits in one nights work, and also took bolting rabbits in the daylight. One bitch I had also won through to the semi finals of a lamping copmpetition against lurchers..so their not all that bad. But, an average lurcher is probaly better than a good deerhound for rabbits..and theres plenty of them knocking about now, hope you get what you are looking for

Hey Kay, I know nowt about converters, but, most of the people I know who have Canon gear like yourself, go for the cheaper Sigma lenses as opposed to the more expensive Canon lenses, have you had a look at any of these..both new and second hand.

Hey Jigsaw I will give you a black and white photo of Queen Victorias false teeth for them..

When I was ringing with the BTO, the thing that amazed me about coal tita was the size of their feet in proportion to their body, absolutely massive, always took some getting out of the nets..Nice collection of photos of them though hon..just need some long tails to come next

Cheers Bird, agree with most of what you say, ground does help alot, your not going to get 30 rabbits on a golf course..and you certainly cant catch big bags if theres not the rabbits to catch, that why we travelled..but, Ive took lads from different parts of the country and they came back with a lot less that on the same ground we were getting a lot more. Even on good ground the rabbits dont just jump into your gamebag. I remember a lad from Durham carrying his dog back to the car, and calling us mad for the way were were grafting ours. Locally at the time Im speaking of, there were a lot o -

some squatters, some short runs, some that ran like hares, you know what its like on a nights lamping..Yes it is a hell of a score, I am a numbers man, and its the best Ive done in one night, and an achievement that I never let anyone take anything away from what the dogs did on that night..no we didnt have to carry them back, no they werent totally f**ked, that night happened on the 1st of the month, Yella was out again on the 3rd-9 rabbits, 7th-33 rabbits, 14th 8 rabbits, 18th 3 rabbits, 23rd 11 rabbits, 25th 24 rabbits, 27th 15 rabbits, 29th 8 rabbits and 30th 9 rabbits -

It wasnt beaten where I live matie.. and had to ammend it, it was 216 with 3 dogs..got wrong off Kevin, in my book for some reason I put 213 too, but the scores that Yella and Sophie got are the same, it was the third dog Jack that got 55 My bitch Yella got , my mate Kevin from Bedlington his bitch Sophie (Yellas daughter got 81 and 2 hares) at around the 50 mark each Kevin asked what we were going to do, I told him we are going to go for a number that will not be beaten for a while. We were quite away from the road, and on top of some quite big hills and we were catching rabbits, killi -

213 rabbits with 3 dogs in one night Sorry have to ammend this post, checked my record books, it was 216 with three dogs.. -
Cheers Kay Like I say, there not out of my breeding, and the owner of Kilbourne deerhounds, with a lot of the other opinionated ladies connected with the breed will never be top of my Xmas list, but the woman who bred these is ok, but I do like that bitch, and she does go back to some of the lines I was looking to when we used to bred..

Cheers matie, none of them my birds, pics Ive taken here and there, the falcon is captive bred belonging to a friend..

I agree, the bitch is a stunner. Sorry Jacob I am not sure of the price, but the breeder has given me an email address as a contact; bannetstanedesign@btinternet.com

The ones Ive seen on lamped well, Ive had 2 that both got into the hight 20`s, and the dog Axel off Lurchermania I saw get over 30 in one night..what they have is determination, the temperament to run rabbit after rabbit all night, you can take them out every night of the week,,what I havent seen yet is a deerhound x greyhound that couldnt kill a rabbit on the lamp, or indeed, during the day

Looking good from here
