Frank Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Had a great night lamping last night with my freind on his permission. The half moon had just gone back down and the rain cleared, thank god, as it was bucketing it down, when i arrived, but after a cuppa and a chat at my mate, it cleared and the moon went to bed with the wind, picking up.. Lamped for a couple of hours and got 19, not many missed, as the dogs were all on good form, striking on the run and turning on a six-pence.. We had 3 dogs between us, taking turns at sliping. My mate, had his 2 mainly whippet crosses and i had my lurcher bitch. My bitch got 8 and his got the rest. Great night. Pics below, my mates 2 whippets, nearly 2 and are working very well, very sharp strike ect.. Thanks lads for bringing me out, you know who you are... Frank.
