jigsaw 11,863 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Before I write,i have to add I dont ever run the dogs on deer,as its illegal as we all know and these photos were taken from the net,, looking at these beasts,,who would be crazy enough to risk your loyal canine companions life on these monster brutes...in my minds eye it would be a war of attrition,and more than likely with only one outcome...a very broken up (if not suddenly deceased )dog..if on the other hand they do become ground level and said canines are doing their bit,,would any man be brave enough to run in with their antlers thrashing to give the coup de gras?It'd be shitty underpants time i reckon,lol.. we were shooting up the country years ago with a stalker and one walked out into the open and my mate was about to shoot him,,I was driving a ford focus estate at the time,I told him under no circumstances was he to shoot it,and there was no way this horse of a deer would fit in the back of the car,nor would we be able to pull it anywhere near the road anyway..we ended up letting the beast be and took 2 smaller deer afterwards,but to see such and animal at close quarters,I couldnt believe ,the mass of it,....its neck at the lower point must have been 2-3 ft wide..How any dog could even slow these things down is beyond me,but again ive no experience in such matters,just my thoughts 8 Quote Link to post

Allan P 1,149 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Reds, to much effort for to little gain imo. If it was legal I'd be sticking to Roe, easily fit in a Roe sack, easier to get home and imo taste a dam sight better. 5 Quote Link to post
WILF 46,687 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I'm not suggesting it's something that should be done on any type of regular basis but some things in life are like f***ing a big ugly fat bird who is utter filth, you should try it at least once if the opportunity ever arose.........just so you had tasted the full richness of life 10 Quote Link to post
