youd be shocked if you slipped a 3\4 grey on there lol the hare would just take the piss take it on a tour until it stopped

Normal.lurchers suffer from low taper fade on strong uns had 1 recently knocked it over in the first minute but it rolled out then went on for couple more minutes then the fade kicked in 

I threw up then ran off laughing

You'd be very hard pressed to deny bull blood in some of the coursing lines wouldn't you?

If you want a dog that settles in behind a hare for 5,6,7,8, minutes, and can do three out of three, that’s fine.
If you want a whizz banger that can do one in quick time or maybe even two, then that’s also fine.

I used to like the former, but due to now wanting to be on the land of off again quickly, I now prefer the latter.

“Horses for courses”, or “Hounds for grounds”, as they say.

Your dog….your choice ! 
Cheers.

The ideal dog would be a whizz banger coursing bred that can make short work of them but also hang in their against the best of hares.

Only  pulling your leg mate as long as there tucking them away that's the main thing. Down england the hares are more willing to take the dogs on where as in Scotland the hares mostly heading for a destination dogs got to be adding some pressure more and also have the wind to sit in when needed 

Never ran any further down country but your spot on up here the hares know exactly where they want to go and it’s up to the dog to work them of that destination and be will to jump and hit cover this one of mine probably catch 2/3rd after they hit cover 

what I love the most is when he’s boxing it from a spot and it all most seems like there at a stand still then drops that gear and scoops up ….. in that moment there nothing else going on in the whole world other than that dog working that hare

“Whizz banger coursing bred” is probably the ultimate oxymoron ! LOL !

Some certainly do look quick, but then you think is it a poor hare, as I said, I think it is hard to guage on video, you don't get the sense of speed that get watching it in real life. I do think our hares down here are better than the one's up the North East though. Lol

It's cheating though using a non native distance runner to catch a native sprinting animal, iv'e alway been more impressed by a normal regular lurcher taking a few over a season than these coursing line bred cheats killing dozens each week,lol..
