very nice tassagh. i'd say they keep the lurcher busy?
thats what or pack is missing, a good fox killing lurcher. i'd have 10 brushes this year if i'd had a good long dog.

The lurcher in the picture is my own, shes collie/irish terrier/greyhound, v.game but gets herself into some messes because she hits the hegdes and barbed wire too hard. She was out for 4 weeks but i've a young bull x lurcher doing the business also. Theres no telling how many red fellows i've missed this year but its nice to see the odd one getting away. Theres a gang down my way that surround the bogs with maybe 15 guns, slaughtering match, doing more harm than good.

gun packs and bullet lampers take more then their fair share alright. but what can you do? each to their own. just wish they'd realise that they are damaging their sport for the future.
i've seen a few run away into distance myself, got to respect old charlie he's a cute cxxt at the best of times
