  1. Oscet do you run deerhound cross by anychance?
  2. That's not right. A dog that'll run 300 yards before it even gets near its quarry and then run that down and catch it, isn't just an animal that runs down the beam. There's dogs out there that would struggle to run 300 yards and catch. If you're 300 yards away and your quarry is away and running then there's something wrong with your fieldcraft. You need to get an asthma pump or some slippers! If it's walking or standing, it makes no difference, in fact a walking animal will stop and look at the approaching dog more often than not. 100 yards is not a long slip and not much of a test. I
  3. Long slips could make a good advert for specsavers
  4. Mik I' am all for testing dogs and seeing what they are made of but long slips prove nothing other than a dog will run down the beam, which IMO any decent lamp dog should do from an early age There is also a massive difference between giving a dog a long slip on something sitting/standing still and an animal on the move.
  5. Do you use a blitz? there a bit over the top for rabbits IMO
  6. I meant you would consider? I' am of the same opinion if your out for a big bag hoover them up without long slips. If I' am out just messing about 100 yard would be about my max I probably would not give that many of them as I prefer the action a bit closer where I can see it properly TBH.
  7. Yer and if the game is on its toes its a tall order for any dog just to get on terms.
  8. TOMO you do as many rabbits as anyone what would be your longest slip for a rabbit?
  9. How long would it take a greyhound to stop if it was at full speed over 300 or 400 yards?
  10. Are you not due back in the mental facility this morning? No out for another day ya mug Absolutely no need for insults.
  11. Sadly time and tide waits for no man, age takes its toll and slows us all down in the end
  12. Are you not due back in the mental facility this morning?
  13. I' am getting it now the stripes make them faster a bit like when boy racers put go faster stripes on there cars
  14. They can't be white or afraid of the dark. I like a dog thats just as eager to get back on the slip as it is to get off it, none of this whistling and calling just lamp off and dog back. I' am gutted one of my dogs is white can you put some light on this theory
  15. Yes they have got to follow into cover and not pull up well before it
  16. What are the other factors people look for in a lamping dog for it to be called good?
  17. Aaron you have a way with words
  18. 800m = 2624ft 81⁄16in hunter1372 you missed a 16th of an inch off
  19. A lightforce blitz has an 800m beam. I' am just wondering if the bestest lamp dogs will or should run right to the end of it?
  20. Did you know max a good dog on the lamp will run all the way down the beam :laugh:
  21. Its not me spoiling the topic, your the one throwing the insults around because your not happy making a fool of yourself Crying to the mods...... classic
  22. Yes its very small but what has that got to do with you making a complete tit out of yourself
  23. I' am not picking an argument just enjoying watch you make a tit of yourself again is there any topic in which your not an expert? Ps' see your avatar Thats how youl prob end up a grumpy 'lonely old man lol Rather that than have experts like you around me good lamp dogs run right to the end of the beam
