Lure coursing equipment is that which is used to create an artificial or mechanical lure (often referred to as "the bunny") which can travel at speeds in excess of 50 mph. The artificial lure is pursued by any animal or bird that possesses a strong prey instinct.
The modern day version of this type of equipment was conceived (in the US around 1971) and developed by various sighthound enthusiasts for the purpose of testing their dogs instinct and physical abilities in a competitive event. This equipment is now used by sighthound people in various competitive lure coursing field trials and racing events. The equipment is also used by other dog owners for various reasons such as physical conditioning and for just the sheer enjoyment of watching a dog have fun. Lure coursing is "funnnnn" for the dogs...they do it because they want to run fast and chase an artificial lure...they cannot be forced to chase a lure.
The equipment is now used by several zoos to exercise and condition cheetahs and African wild dogs. Falconers utilize lure coursing equipment to both train and condition their short wing hawks (those raptors that hunt game on the ground) and to perform educational demonstrations of a hawks hunting techniques and flight abilities without sacrificing live game.

, injury risk, importance of health and conditioning of the dog, your first trial.......
http://www.greyhoundadoption.org/lurecoursing.htm
Southeastern Greyhound Club HOW TO GET STARTED IN LURE COURSING
BY JOHN PARKER
(This article originally appeared in the Summer 1998 issue of Celebrating Greyhounds.
It has been revised and updated by the author)

Lure coursing is a humane sport which re-creates the chase of the hare by the pursuing hound. The "bunny" consists of strips of white plastic attached to a continuous loop line that runs through a series of pulleys to simulate the zigzag path of a rabbit on the run. No wagering is involved; the dogs run for fun and the occasional ribbon or trophy. Coursing is not merely a race. Greyhounds and the other participating sighthound breeds are judged not only on speed, but also on enthusiasm during the course, agility in making turns, how accurately they follow the path of the lure, and their endurance in completing the course.
This article is intended to provide step-by-step suggestions for getting your Greyhound started in lure coursing in a way that will help you avoid some of the pitfalls common to coursing newcomers who "leap right in" without adequate preparation. It is not intended to be an exhaustive treatise on lure coursing. It is based on my own experience in lure coursing, numerous discussions with coursing veterans whose experience goes back many more years than my own, and the experiences of a number of Greyhound owners whom I have had the pleasure of mentoring in their "rookie year."

of the field sport of coursing the testing of the speed and agility of the hound with the hare as quarry. From the Countryside Alliance.......
http://www.countryside-alliance.org/edu/edu2-3-5cour.htm

Coursing
Coursing is one of the world's oldest field sports, dating back to the time of the Pharaohs. The object of coursing under National Coursing Club rules is to test coursing hounds, which chase exclusively by sight. Coursing rules are designed specifically to mark the speed, stamina and agility of the coursing hound. It is not the object to kill hares and, if a dog kills a hare, it does not necessarily win the course. Unlike Park Coursing, which is popular in Ireland, all coursing under National Coursing Club rules takes place in open country, allowing the hare to escape. Some grounds have special refuges called "soughs" installed to assist the hare's escape. In an average season, seven out of eight hares that are coursed escape.
The Hare
Lepus europaeus, or the common brown hare, is a larger, more athletic cousin of the rabbit and weighs between 7–9 lbs. The hare is designed for speed and its uphill acceleration is phenomenal. It has many predators, especially when young, including foxes, stoats, cats, raptors, and owls, but its deep chest, well-muscled body, strong back legs and clawed feet enable the hunted hare to be a master of evasion. The hare's sight, hearing and sense of smell are excellent, as one would expect of a prey species in the wild.
The Course
Beaters drive the hares one by one onto the running ground, in the same way as for game shooting. Alternatively, as in rough shooting, the participants and their dogs put up the hares as they walk across the fields to be coursed.

NATIONAL COURSING CLUB
Established 1858 A Brief Guide to Coursing Glossary of Terms NCC The National Coursing Club, the governing body of greyhound coursing, is responsible for drawing up the rules under which affiliated meetings are conducted. THE MEET The place where everyone gathers before going to the actual field where the coursing takes place. RUNNING GROUND The field where the coursing takes place. THE BEAT The area from which hares will be driven on to the running ground by beaters holding flags. "The Beat" also describes the "beaters" as a whole. DRIVEN COURSING At most meetings all the hares are driven by beaters. The running ground is often walked-over before coursing to clear any hares sitting on the field. WALKED UP COURSE The crowd walks across a field with a slipper in the middle, putting up hares to be coursed as it goes. Some meetings are completely or partially "walked-up". SLIPPER The official in a red coat responsible for releasing (slipping) the dogs in pairs simultaneously. SHY A hide for the slipper.

Coursing Open Field Coursing Lure Coursing Open Field Coursing Hunting, or coursing, is the ultimate game to play with your Saluki. It is the breed's raison d''tre and their continued use for this purpose has preserved them as they are over a long period of time. The Saluki is a prime hunting machine and weapon; his natural born instincts give him a strong desire to run down and catch whatever he sees moving. Of course, these instincts can get him into trouble if he's turned off lead in the wrong place at the wrong time. The first thing to remember is to hunt with a Saluki in remote and totally safe areas, far from roads, livestock, or other temptations that can lead to disaster. Bear in mind, a Saluki is an endurance runner and can go for miles. Second, make sure your Saluki gains experience and is conditioned slowly and progressively until he is capable of running down and catching prey. The best strategy is to start him as a youngster. Raise him with regular visits to open fields where he can learn about natural barriers, obstacles, and changes in terrain, and at the same time build a solid, strong body, a foundation capable of handling what is in store. If you are starting with an older dog, be sure he is in good health and weight, and work him slowly up to the condition necessary to handle the rigors of running down and catching game. Typical courses are one to two miles in length; your Saluki will be expected to run this distance at full speed and return prepared to do it again.
