Lamping.....It Pays To Check!

[Rolfe 2]

Just thought it might be a good time to mention about checking land you intend to lamp at night........In the daytime for any new hazards.

On my patch, they had recently cleaned out the ditches and left this piece of debris on the field edge where i run the dogs after dark. A dog hitting this chunk of metal at high speed after dark would be in serious trouble i think.

Good point rolfe now that would do some damage atb FV

Chain Harrows left at the corner of fields are another problem.........the grass grows through them and they become virtually invisible........but can do serious damage to a dog travelling at speed.

I once saw a lurcher run into a set of disc harrows while lamping, very near cut the poor sod in half, the only good thing to come out of it was that it had a quick end.
