Whats the most hares you done in one night

[Matt 160]

I understood the reason that they killed so many hares at SMB was because they were so fed up with poachers.

 

The keepers had been shot at, had their families threatened and lots of damage to the estate. I don't think they made the decision to cull such a large number lightly.

 

I'm no fan of shooting hares, but given it is the only legal way to control their numbers these days, people should be careful not to condemn them too quickly.

 

There are plenty of hares out there for everyone when we get a decent government to repeal this unfair, classed based legislation.

FEBUARY DAY TIME HARES.... NOW THATS A DIFFERENT MATTER

 

 

Aye,your right chap,the majority of does are carrying young!! Another one who has obviously done nothing or little,jesus!!..hares start pairing up mid to late January ESPECIALLY further South where it is profoundly warmer by a degree or two..and where are the SUPER FENS where supposedly it's the ultimate test for running dogs?? It makes me wonder at times if anyone on here has actually ever done any form of hunting?? Rant over..sorry!! All the best PP.

just because its called the hunting life dont expect to find many hunters here,this place is a magnet for special needs folk.

AGREE... i'M NOT ONE FOR SHOOTING HARES, BUT GOT AN INVITE A FEW YEARS AGO TO WANTAGE FOR A DRIVED HARE DAY, (WELL, TWO DAYS ACCTUALLY), and 300 odd were shot on the first day and 320 ish on the second day,

up until that day i would never condone the shooting of hares but they are so large in numbers up there it does not have an impact on their survival.... this is partly due to the amount of 'stick' the keeper got from so called coursing men..
