bertha said:Speak to the BSFA, they run a circular course, the lure goes round and back to the beginning in a single loop. You need to see it work out how to run it, it makes for far more interesting coursing. The course is laid out over 250 yards and upwards, jinking like a hare. When I went up to Newburylast year the dogs all got one go then they ran the lure the other way. Some dogs get crafty and can work out just where it is going and cut corners, they are docked points for that.
Food for thought, yes? :thumbsup:
I'd second that, having done both kinds I much prefer the rethreadable circuit to the continuous loop. Quite a lot of consideration needs to be given to course design, with a course that allows a number of different routes to be rethreaded between the various rounds, as the best dogs can get lure wise very quickly. Would also prefer knock-out type competitions.Strike Whippets said:I know some people don't like the continual loop lure system as dogs can get caught up in the line and the rollers are higher than the flatter re thread able ones :unsure: .......bertha said:Speak to the BSFA, they run a circular course, the lure goes round and back to the beginning in a single loop.
