Australian staghound

[dodger 3,560]

I remember seeing a bitch similar bar a touch lighter to this run a hare in new south Wales Australia for a good 2 or 3 minutes though orchads crop fences the lot n although missed she ran well n often wondered how they would do over here n surprised never here of them they looked a durable faster more useful type than the Deerhound I would've thought

A friend of mine toyed with importing one mate . But he's got his own line going now and from what I've seen.  He done the right thing.  Just good lurcher and coursing blood

This just caught my eye; 

Very cheap pups. 
I’ve hunted around Ballarat, and although I’m not a fan of Airedale crosses, if I lived there I would be tempted to give one of these a go.

Cheers.

Yes, mate, the land is huge, makes the fens look like my back garden !

Theres plenty of hares, but none of the lads I met were interested in them, they considered them pests.

Also ,I’ve never seen a saluki or saluki x when I’ve been there. I’m sure there will be some, and the land is perfect for coursing, but I don’t know anyone who runs them.

Cheers.

God experience there..what way do they hunt the foxes do they use hounds  or terriers that lurcher second picture from bottom is a cracker 

[dodger 3,560]

Good pics charts and as you say they don't seem as bothered do they.

Interesting tho as I asked a farm I was staying on if I had a dog would be let me have a run n he said n that was the same with his neighbours when he took me round there for a couple of beers

They do it all; I went out with terriers bolting to the lurchers, walked up with lurchers and I went out with the Barwon Fox hounds.

Those hounds are a mixed pack of English Foxhounds and Irish Beagles ,

Crackin pics out of likes 

Was also thinking tho not only is it a nice invite but you certainly put the miles in there going to Australia for some hunting that's dedication or daft keen lol

Good memories
