Frenchieboy Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 (edited) I've just come across this photo taken many years ago (Back in the late 70's) I wasn't so much into shooting as coursing and lamping with my lurcher and working my terried with my mate's dogs. I know it's nothing to do with pigeon shooting but it certainly brings back memories. Oh how I miss not having a dog or two working with me". This photo shows the first fox that my lurcher "Gemma" caught single handed on the lamp! Edited February 15, 2010 by Frenchieboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted February 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Good looking cur, what mix was Gemma ? Gemma was a Bedlington/Whirret cross Geryhound/Collie/Saluki! She was just over 6 months old in that photo, a bit too young to be running foxes I know, but she really was dynamite and just wanted to work. We used to lamp her with my mates bitch 5 nights a week where we expected at least 30 rabbits from them each night and then rest her on Saturdays ready for hare coursing every Sunday! I have never had a running dog as good as her and I very much doubt if I ever will again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted February 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Was that a picture of snoopy on your t-shirt I don't think it was but who knows, after all it was a l o n g, l o n g time ago so I can't rightly remember. (Memery loss is another sigh of aging isn't it?) If anything it is more likely to be a picture of "Yaz" (Taz or Tazmania was my hero and just as mad as I was at the time)!

It's a senior thing you know, the fingers not co-operating with the brain! By the way...................... I believe it's your birthday, have a good one mate!
