Fast ground

Some ground local to me never seem to do well on the lamp it's grass but cropped really short also it's one big hill when the rabbits get going downhill there like rockets even the young dog can't live with them , if anyone else had this pls reply so I can feel better about mesen and stop crying

Ive got the same problem and so have others that ive taken there.i dont have the excuse of being hilly either,its on the levels.straight line and even my mates whippety thing cant catch them.

Some rabbits run up and down the hedge,these are suicidal and dont slow down and head first through it.

There's a bit of waste ground near me plenty of rabbits on it but people come from near and far to hunt it poor rabbits are hunted 24 7 365 day's a year if you're dog can catch one over there he'll catch one anywhere there bang wide and fast as f**k I haven't seen a squatter in donkey's years.

This place is grazed by coloured ponies they eat it right down to note maybe a smaller whip/ beddy or summat might do better

The most difficult place we used to find to catch rabbits on the lamp was golf courses, they were like shit off a stick!

I've got a golf course to have a go at but it's been closed for a year went overgrown and recently been flailed plenty of sign of rabbit umpteen people walking dog's in the day so have to be lamped hopefully they won't be too quick?

I agree I do like the golf courses even better if you got one holding a few longlugs only thing I find is it can be very dangerous for dogs ...

Yeah those sand pits come out of know where.

Golf courses, smooth well drained, usually firm, slippery, with bunkers and a few nicely placed trees about. Dangerous? Very.
