Blowing out they were

Tbh I don't think you can call that last vid a good example of the breed. It's like saying all coursing bred run the same

Although I stick by my earlier comment..... whiney, snipey nosed shit bags

That could possibly be the slowest most boring run I've seen, what attracts you to the galgos sandy as if it's daytime your into the coursing bred dogs we have here make them look poor

I don't think you can judge the hole breed on that them two dogs to be fair busher....some of them other clips are by far better dogs

I don't like slow stuff, I've run English more than Spanish and my bitch runssimilar to an up and at em English type. The pup has more pace than her already, but its nice to know there's a bit in the reserve tank

Might be the heat and hard going ground that makes them look slow be interesting see a video of one running over here is there any vids of them running here??

Back to the hot weather exercise =

At this time of year not a lot  keep dogs well watered and shaded evening distance walk across country if they get there selfs a run if it presents its self so be it I get down to a few brooks I change walk routes regularly so I can check land out this time of year is boring as shit with fields full of crops and walking routes over grown 

[joe ox 2,547]

Its shit this time of year, my dogs are usually glad of the rest at the end of the season. Their chomping at the bit ready to start at the minute and the youngsters acting like wankers testing my patience all made worse as bitchs are in heat, which I shouldn't complain about as its better they are in this time of year rather than mid season.

[sandymere 8,260]

I'm chomping at the bit myself, looking forward to seeing what the pup does. But more hot stuff on the way so for now I'll stick with the hot weather training

 After all time is ever moving on... 

and it'll soon enough be time to be getting them out but until then I'll enjoy the rest of the summer

i was not gong to comment, but I cant help it, we must remember that the double handed boys are not  trying to catch one, just chase it, because they are proper sportsmen, and us single handed men are only interested in killing every thing that moves, I don't watch the clips any more cos they are crap, the heat don't matter if the dogs are watered proper, and their feet are  good, when I was a lad I ran all year if I could find somewhere short, and dogs were ok, nowadays its to hot or to hard in September and October even if you wanted to have a run to risk the dog, yet they would I am sure cope well enough, speed is only a small part in the makeup of a coursing dog, I have in my time seen one or two ok dogs, and the fastest are seldom the best, imho. do the hares in spain have a breading season or does the climate mean they bread all year.

[joe ox 2,547]

Dogs are capable of killing all year round. I however take no pleasure in killing babies and milky does. Hard ground increases the risk of injury minor or otherwise, I do not wish to take the risk of shortening any of my dogs career's with injury because of impatience.

My best catch dog was also my fastest dog. I've owned far nicer, but slower lurchers, and their catch rate was nowhere near my old dog's catch rate. But, he wasn't a coursing dog

Dont really understand that bit about running doubled arnt trying to catch it ? The only time ive ran doubled up in my life is if there is a couple runs about was desperate to get something on a shit night or for things a single dog would find hard to handle. Never heard anyone slip double or single then whinge the dog killed.

Same as that silly c**t charles bronson, or whatever his real name is. All these serial jailbirds turn to art. Again, similar effect on the mind as taking too many drugs
