when they were being used for coursing in the seventy's, I saw loads run and cant say I saw one that stood out as a good one, saw one or two good lurchers with deerhound in but other stuff too so cant say its the deerhound coming through, that made em good.

Not a dig here t c, but is it only competetive coursers that used saluki x's rather than deerhound x's? As I'm pretty sure that many people prefer deerhound/greyhound rather than saluki/greyhound, for a bit of everything including taking hares, when it was legal. Not everyone wants 'the best' hare dog ever, or a dog that can do 5 or 6 minutes behind a hare 4, 5 or 6 times a day ?

yes I suppose I am using a bench mark which is set a bit high when it comes to hare running, but how many lads on here would settle for second best given the choice. as an ingredient there fine just in my opinion not the mane one.

Most coursing dogs fail when there took out there comfort zone and put to teeth it's horses for courses and alote fail when outcrosed to bull it's just your luck the bull deerhound mix is a stonger and gamer animal than the saluki x fact I've seen it with my own two eyes a good bull deerhound it's hard to beat ??
