The Taking Of Deer (Pre Ban)

[Sweeney 316]

Deer are a risk to dogs full stop....especially the regular taking of fallow. Dogs will be dragged threw wire fences ect I dont bother with them much these days as much as i use to do, they can really destroy a good dog, you could get lucky and take a good few with not much of a problem, but the day will come when your dog or dogs will come unstuck, not pleasant. Just my opinion and experience on the matter.

I know fallow, reds and even muntjak can cause problems for a dog, but I heard Roe are more of a low risk ??

Have never taken roe, as we done have them here, going by some descriptions and story's of dogs taken them, they do seem easier, but like i said, i have never taken them.

Fair play, well I think that's the only deer that I would run, if your dog takes one of those I think that's good enough in my eyes.

the muntjac is the king of the cover, hunting them with dogs will take its toll if done regular, its just an accident waiting to happen but i would think it would be very exciting stuff to watch, they can also run when pushed to break cover, you could get a liking for it easy enough, these days deer can be a pain in the arse as their numbers have swelled just look what happened with Fenton

The other advantage to hypothetically hunting muntjac, is where they can be found these days....any & everywhere!!

 

Can be tough customers though.......

I would value a good deer dog the same as a good coursing the dog has still got to match the deer for speed endurance and skill but its also got to match it with physical presence and keep it down till you arrive

Then there's 6 different types that each bring something else to the table

The dogs life if he's on deer all the time will be hard and runs the risk of death every run

That dog of Nicks caught 100's of small deer and a muntie buck saw him off one night willow,but woodland hunting of them WAS some real heart in mouth times Paulus and very addictive like you say.
