hare coursing in ireland


Recommended Posts

i didnt see any blood -

:blink:

 

i just found this accidentally and wanted to share. conveniently enough the person who posted this video didnt leave it open for discussion.

 

i am confused on how you score this event anyway. since the dogs dont actually catch the hare.. how do you know who wins?

hi

i am from ireland and have been coursing all my life. there is two types of coursing, open and closed coursing.would explain if you want but as to how the coursing gets scored ,, as the hare runs the dogs chase it , which ever dog gets the hare to turn first gets 3 points and for every turn after that its one point per turn but rarely lasts most longer than one or two turns.so the all important turn is the first one,pls note objective of coursing is not to kill the hare,that is the most disappointing thing ever.
