watchman 256 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 wait a second, is this a common thing to do? I've never ever heard of anyone wanting to do this before...do you mean picking up for you when shooting or do you mean like actually trying to catch a pheasent/pigeon or whatever with the lurcher? iv decided..............................yep you really are a dummy bird that should stick to stripping off for the lads,before you ask no i aint got no problem with you and will not get drawn into a conversation about it either, just saying it how i see it simples excuse me but just because i have never heard of a lurcher being used for retrieving game it makes me a idiot? Have you ever thought we may not do it in my area/group of friends...highley in appropriate comment and very much un-called for, i asked a gunine question...and anyone who has been out with my lamping/met me know that i know the crack. And for your information i very very rarley do lads mags (entered that competition for a laugh). I am A art nude model and most of my work is sold privatly art student ha ha,cracked me up,work sold privately eh....................oh well i suppose we live and learn sorry for my mistake and for not hearing a lurcher being used to retrieve GAME as you put it what else we all going to use them for then mate ragging stuffed toys and pulling us off our mountain bikes maybe Quote Link to post
Catcher 1 639 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Had young lurchers retrieving shot wodpigeon at 15 weeks old. Bring thems on a treat Worst bird to start them on Catcher....too many feathers that fall out to easy. I start them on what i shoot first bud.As for woodpigeon at that age they are so keen to please.never had to mutch of a problem.One good pluck then i let them carry for a bit. Quote Link to post
Lab 10,979 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Had young lurchers retrieving shot wodpigeon at 15 weeks old. Bring thems on a treat Worst bird to start them on Catcher....too many feathers that fall out to easy. not so sure,they retrieve them they will retrieve anything,nothing like a flapper to get the dog interested ....you just said the very same thing in your last post. A young dog shouldn't be started on pigeons because of the feathers falling out, wether its a lurcher or a gun dog. Snipe are great to start of with...... A winged bird isn't good either as it makes the dog want to run in, probably more a gun dog fault though rather than a lurchers... Quote Link to post
hickymick 37 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 What method is best used to start lurchers on feather? OPEN,next doors ,poultry coop then stand back and observe. What section of the wildlife officers manual is that in........... Section 1 Things not to do ?. You should try and be a bit clearer then next time............. think you got him lab :laugh: now just wind in slow,you may have to back wind cos he is a big kooz carp Quote Link to post

I'd choose not to as a pup wasted early is never going to come on to be anything special. Quote Link to post

scothunter 12,609 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 cant believe anyone would take the time to introduce a lurcher to feather,they should be keen enough to chase a crisp poke blowing around.never ever did it,all my lurchers it just was a natural instinct to take the odd pheasant that was unfortunate to stray in its path.
