moonlighter 1,160 Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 My first ever lurcher would catch winter fen hares regular..but as I was only a kid I never travelled far from the house. But in them days the most I ever caught in one day wound be 2 as they was bloody heavy to carry! But looking back I don't think my dog had another in the tank and the 3rd hare would probably see the dog just running behind it. She was the sister to stats fly and cass, so was beddy, collie, greyhound. She was no match for my saluki type lurchers now on daytime hares, but then on the other hand she was not fed and conditioned the same to fairly compare them. Quote Link to post

sighthound123 31 Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Here's a question, would a heavily saturated saluki type or even pure saluki have a chance at taking a hare up in Cumbria in the small fields i have to run? probably not compared to a 3/4 bred collie grey or a saluki/grey or various grey/whip saturated lurchers. But i doubt the lurchers used for the fields up here could go down to the fens and run 4/5 runs for 4/5 minutes at a time. horses for courses thats all it is isn't it? You have a dog that is suited to the land you like to run Quote Link to post

cantona 310 Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Many moons ago, my uncle had a fairly good dog called Jim. He got his fair share of hares on the biggest land that was close, that being Pocklington. Until the Law intervened that is and they were all summonsed. But, i'm pretty certain that although Jim could do those hares he would have probably been blown away if he had got onto a decent strong fen hare. I think there is a major difference between going out and running the odd hare, and going hare coursing.... I do find it interesting that the one thing those that slag fenland hares/hare coursers off have in common is...that they haven't been there and done it. You don't hear a peep from those that have been and sampled the class lagomorphs that can be found on the biggest of land.....Funny that. At the risk of getting banned, can I ask you to define what you class as coursing? As for slagging the fens, i can't speak for everyone but it's the style of running that I slag. I know the fen guys thinks it's great watching a hare towing a dog about for 6,7,8 minutes but it isn't everyones cup of tea. I reckon the fen coursers enjoy it because it gets results, no other reason. It certainly can't be for the entertainment value cos I would rather watch caravans getting towed down the m74 you certainly have a way with words Quote Link to post
