Coursing
Coursing means different things to different people. Lure Coursing is about all I do right now. I hope to get out and do some OFC one of these days. I am active in many ASFA-sanctioned clubs in the Southeast: Vice-President of Coursing Hound Association of the Southeast, Secretary of Greyhound Association of North Georgia, and a charter member of Southeastern Greyhound Club. I have represented Southeastern Greyhound Club at three ASFA Annual Convention of Delegates and represented CHASE for the last four years. I lure operate for all breeds and am an ASFA All-Breed Licensed Judge. I was honored to have run the lure for some of the finest Greyhounds I've ever seen run at the 2003 International Invitational in Colorado Springs and the 2004 International Invitational in Indianola, IA. I will be posting trial results as often as possible. If you are interested in how the Southeastern hounds are doing, keep this site bookmarked and check back often!

Coursing is one of the world's oldest field sports. Since the days of the Pharaohs "gazehounds", dogs which hunt exclusively by sight, have been tested in competition. Arrian, a Roman writing in AD116 laid down: "The true sportsman does not take out his dog to destroy the hares, but for the sake of the course and the contest between the dogs and the hares, and is glad if the hare escapes." His words are just as relevant today. The Dogs Past Present The Hares ... Results 16 Clocktower Mews, Newmarket, Suffolk, CB8 8LL

    Dear Deputy,
    Further to our letter to you of August 31st re. breaches of the Wildlife Act (1976) by coursing clubs, we draw your attention to the following abuses uncovered by state wildlife rangers who attended specific coursing events during the 2006/2007 season.
    We challenge any member of Dail Eireann to review these reports, all of which can be verified by contacting the Wildlife Service, and then still deny that hare coursing amounts to a breathtaking act of barbaric cruelty.

    Lure Coursing
    Lure Coursing as a competitive dog sport is over 30 years old in the USA, and 12 Sighthound breeds are eligible to compete and earn the AKC recognized titles of Junior Courser, Senior Courser, Field Champion and Lure Courser Excellent. These titles in their abbreviated form of JC, SC, FC ,MC, and LCX become part of the hound's name, are entered in the American Kennel Club stud book as part of the hound's permanent record and become part of the hound's official pedigree. Lure Coursing is wonderful fun for both owner and hound and gives the hound an opportunity to satisfy the basic urge to hunt with no live "prey" involved.

      Getting Started in Lure Coursing
      The purpose of non-competitive lure coursing tests is to offer sighthound breed owners a standardized gauge to measure their hounds' coursing instinct. The purpose of the competitive lure coursing trial program is to preserve and develop the coursing skills inherent in the sighthounds and to demonstrate that they can perform the functions for which they were originally bred.
      Although lure coursing events are artificial simulations of coursing, they are designed to measure and develop the characteristics of the sighthound breeds.
      Lure coursing tests and trials are sports and all participants must be guided by the principles of good sportsmanship both on and off the test and trial fields (Regulations for Lure Coursing Test and Trials Handbook, Chapter 1, Section 1, page 1).

    About Us
    Hello Parents, Grandparents, and Caretakers
    My name is Debbie Beam-Tougas and I created "Coursing Around"
    With over 18 years of fitness experience which included being a Certified Fitness Specialist, Aerobics Instructor, Personal Trainer and Post Exercise Therapist for a chiropractic office, I inherited a passion for teaching individuals the importance of staying active.
    In 2002, I was recruited to teach the fitness component of a Government Subsidized overweight program for children ranging in age from 5-15. I still remember the first class I taught. There was a 6 year old by the name of Ruben who was approximately 40 lbs overweight. After only walking part way around the building he had to stop because he was extremely out of breath, hunched over with his hands on his knees and needed a rest. This was a wake up call for me and practically brought tears to my eyes. Also hearing what these kids had to endure on a daily basis because they were overweight was devastating and heartbreaking. At that moment I knew it was imperative to help find a way for kids to be active, social and have fun all at the same time. My challenge was to keep the attention of kids from ages 5 to 15 for 45 min with just blacktop and at times, an outdoor basketball hoop. So with some sidewalk chalk and an imagination "Coursing Around"

  • Introduction One of the most enjoyable past times that a Deerhound owner can share with her hound is the sport of lure coursing. Lure coursing was developed in California in the early 1970s as a way to allow sighthounds to use their hunting skills without chasing live game. The dogs, in pairs or trios, chase an artificial lure (usually a white plastic bag) over a set course plan and are judged in the following categories: enthusiasm, follow, speed, agility and endurance. The title "Field Champion" can be earned when your dog has obtained a certain combination of placements and points competing against others of her breed. This article is not intended to go into a detailed description of lure coursing, rather it is meant to give the reader advice on selecting, raising and training a Scottish Deerhound for lure coursing. There is an excellent lure coursing FAQ written by Bonnie Dalzell that should answer any questions about the sport in general.
