coursing/lamping dogs?

[Blue one 89]

For lads/lasses that have coursing dogs, do you lamp them as well, or just run them in the day after hares and don't lamp them?

What is the reason for not lamping them after rabbits at night as well?

Cheers.

Totaly agree Have to say I do quite a bit of lamping with my coursing dogs these days and it has not ill affected them around headges or cover acctualy if I'm honest I think it may have sharpend them a little .

As we know its a different type of run and they can tend to put a bit much in early in the day time if you do a bit of lamping with them but if your dogs a deacent animal with enough stick to over come this then I personly dont think it causes a problem

i use my 3/4 greyhound 1/4 collie dog for lamping mainly but if the lads are going coursing i bring him along and i've seen him make dirt of some good saluki bred hare dogs that are only used for coursing and i've seen rabbits make a show of some very good hare dogs

As much as i prefer a Collie bred lurcher,if you ever get the opportunity to witness a proper cousing dog in the field,you may reflect on your last statement.

im not saying that he is the best coursing dog going just saying that lamping a dog and coursing them can be right for some dogs and i have seen some proper coursing dogs working in the field and i have owned some very good coursing dogs but coursing is not my main game lamping is and as i said a lot of dogs used mainly for coursing are not great on a rabbit but a dog used for mainly lamping well make a better allrounder

Lets not confuse lamping with coursing,a collie bred lurcher will outrun,outwit,outnumber a saluki bred one,in the lamp,daytime is and will always be the saluki breds domain.
