  1. 'Care of the racing Greyhound' Its a text book for trainers. It has everything about health and training in it. Its Australian and written by three people,also 'The Greyhound trainer' by Montagu Harrison. This book was around the 60s I think but has a lot of knowledge and very scientific about training for coursing and track,also very good on feeding and the best Ive ever read. Ive read it over and over. Both books are easy to find,but let me know if you need help. You wont find more in depth books.
  2. Thats a nice print,hang on to it if you like it.
  3. Cluson Blazerlite with 100watt bulb is good but if fields are really big the 240 will be better but harder to handle.
  4. Never never put pics on the interweb of you or your dogs...But what annoys me is if those pics had a rifle in they could be in Field magazine and found acceptable... We need to keep doing it but resist the bragging ffs
  5. If you can breed bitches that are like dogs you are on to a winner. I like both sexes in my kennel,but if I could only keep one dog it would be a dog.
  6. you wont want to use the lazerlite after the blazerlite mate,its much better.
  7. How do you know its shit,its not even out yet. Bit harsh that matey
  8. Forget that,its not as powerful as my Blazerlite so wont bother.
  9. I havnt yet but will be getting one. Cluson lamps and Lazerlite models are well made all British and beat Deben hands down for quality.
  10. Thats spot on that is. One night i was on my my way out (stammering already) and I was going somewhere a little but not very naughty. It was a very black night in november with enough wind to stir things. On the way I put the radio on and found myself listening to Bram Stokers Dracula being read by a deep voice together with menacing sound effects.. I really enjoyed it and nothing bothered me about it until I parked up and got out into the black night with those huge russling black oak trees on the edge of the wood that I had to walk through to get to the fields. I just could not get rid of
  11. Yes mate,there is the Galelao memorial cup in the east of England about to get under way I believe.
  12. I love it when they start talking about the knack..
  13. Do we get a discount for advising you on rearing??
  14. Out last night and caught 200 rabbits and a panther,cant seem to get pics up..
  15. Make sure the bitch has loads of good grub of high quality. Minced beef or lamb and goats milk. Dont get pet mince thats full of crap,just pure muscle meat. Use a complete meal as a mixer but use a puppy one so its high protien. Remember what goes in her goes in the pups and there needs to be enough goodness to look after her aswell. You want to see a bit of butter on her ribs. Dont think about cost or you will cut corners. Personally I would never keep a large litter on a bitch. 6 is maximum for me. The less you keep the more they get.
  16. You are a game one Bird...you stood your ground...
  17. Nice handy size that mate..What other cross could you get to produce that type and still be good around a hole aswell as being a good catch dog? Whatever they are they are rare. You cant beat Bullyx for alround usefulness..
  18. I doubt that will heal mate. Probably go like leather,but no hair..
  19. If the farmer was a decent bloke he would have made it so you could still go..after all its his land and shooters will agree to anything basically.. Hes the money grabbing creep not the guns.
  20. If you only go when its black and windy though you have a lot of nights off. stiff breeze and light rain is my best conditions.
  21. Lightforce are all british made and built a lot better than Deben.. Ive never had a Deben I havnt had to repair and virtually rewire from new,and there not cheap to buy.. Ive got the LA9 with metal reflector and 100w bulb with lithium battery.
  22. Anytime after dark when conditions are best as DW 69 says. Might wait for a bit of rain or wind picking up. Pack up when ive had enough or the dogs have or my mate has. The only advantage to going very late is you are less likely to get seen if you are trespassing but then you stand out more to the rossers on the road home unless you are driving a taxi.
  23. A great cross but better with a whippet/grey rather than just whippet.
