  1. What did lads do before locators were about?
  2. Whats vinnies breeding pal? Sounds a good dog.
  3. 22 that a good number in a night does it retrieve?
  4. If you run the dog on too many failed runs does it nock there confidence, or do you keep going at it or rest them for a bit?
  5. I struggle to find them as I am only on my phone
  6. I haven't been in the sport long and don't no many people in it so If I av a question to ask I thought it would be ok to ask on here and don't expect to be called a moron.
  7. He about 21" at minute but will make about 23 when done i was told,
  8. I don't really no much about hare coursing as iv av only been in to the dogs 3 years, pre ban matches could you run any lurcher that the owner thought might stand a chance at winning and what where the lads preferred breeds. ?
  9. I think his retrieving will get sorted eventually as I can see a big improvement this season, I race him in summer on simulated coursing and everyone used to laugh when I ad to run up the other end of the course because he would lay down and try get his muzzle off but I went to one about 5 weeks ago and he came back as fast as he went away and come right back to me. And I only vibrate it and he noes to come back. We both out alot more and I'm not getting mad with him we are catching loads more rabbits and both enjoying our sport.
  10. He is catching well he got 5 out 5 runs a few weeks ago. The catching wasnt the problem it was his recall he would catch one kill it drop it then hunt the field up in the dark. None of that now and he is starting to bring them back he got one tonight about 150 yards away I brought it straight back but 3 nights ago he only brought it half way back. Last week he was straight out of motor jumped wall caught it back over wall and put it in the motor I was amazed.
  11. Trust me I ad tryed everything he just wouldn't come back till he had scared everything away I only ad to use the electic shock setting a couple of times then now I just vibrate it and he noes to come back, it has improved both our nights out as he gets more runs down the beam.
  12. I got him when he was 13 months old he and didn't have any basic training. He would come back everytime during the day but once slipped he just would hunt up the hole field I would stand waiting till he decided to come back tryed treats and praise but he still did it everytime the e collar was the last chance and I was so relived it worked because he was my first lurcher and I like him but he was just making me so mad. And the retrieving sometimes is getting better. But still kills and leaves them in middle of the field don't really no how to improve it only give him loads of praise when he
  13. Cheers pal ye he can shift, I do simulated causing in the summer and he does well when he is fit. He struggles in small fields to get up to speed but he's having the best season of his life so far. He was really getting me down when hunting up fields after a slip on lamp, but now I got him on the e shock collar he comes straight back and he is bang on now.
  14. Iv ad a look and can only find one other post, can't be that many lads with them on here?

  17. Does anyone ferret with there whippet x greyhound?
  18. my pup he is 7 months old anyone use them for lamping if so how do they get on. ?
  19. Anyone heard of a dog called shadow meant to be a offspring, if so whats he like my mate says he was really good ?
  20. When lamping do you have your beam wide or tight and why. ?
  21. I'm happy with 50% catch, but some nights he might get 5 out of 5 and others he may Get none but it's not always his fault I may slip him on a crap slips we av alot of small field around us so it easy for them to get away as long as he looks keen and try's his best I'm happy.
