adamb20 22 Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 took my pup out tonight for her first time on the lamp. shes 9 month in the middldle of august. ive mooched her during the day since 3 month but only retrieved with her on the lamp. i lit up the lamp and theres a clapper in the middle of field so i walked her onto it (with butterflys in my stomach lol) it jumped up so i slipped her. she caught the rabbit with ease with a perfect strike, my older dog wasnt striking propperly till about 14 month. she then went on to catch five out of 7 runs before i called it a night. im absolutly over the moon lol. i was a bit disapointed with her retrieving as she played with the rabbits for a bit before bringing them back but with what ive seen tonight im very optimist for this pup. cant wait for this season now. would put pics up but the program i use to convert to web page pics has ran out of it's free trial.

the pikey poacher 1,157 Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 no need to get your nickers in a twist but just looked at another post of yours and you said that you were using dummies on the lamp now i fully understand that you caught 5 out of 7 if they were dummies and im no cheeky c**t i just said very well done if it did catch that many rabbits first time out Quote Link to post
adamb20 22 Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 mate I'm by no means saying I caught five fit winter bucks. Its its not her first time out its first time on the lamp. She's had four daytimes rabbits so far so how is five kicked up lamped rabbits so hard to believe, why is it only you that has trouble believing it??? Quote Link to post
