I can remember the last time I saw one ran a good few years back by a kid I know who had some huge Bull/Greyhound/Deerhound types, I don't think they were the quickest of animals but they were proper powerhouses.

 

The Stag was turned into the middle of the field and we slipped the dogs and no word of a lie the Stag straight lined the Fcukers, jumped a massive ditch and made it's escape into the woods.

 

The way the beast was galloping no dog on God's earth would have stopped it single handed, it would have bulldozed the lot of the fcukers at that rate.

Agree 100% the dog who takes a beast like that singlehanded don’t exist. There’s a reason why the wolf is a pack hunter. I’m sure there has been a wolf or two that could go it alone but  0.5% catch/ kill  success is about the best it would get

reds are no mythical beast they can and have been taken [BANNED TEXT] 2 dogs,  but must be teamwork dogs alone will not take him down unless he goes down  ,then job is to keep him down.

No not with the type I run wouldn’t be man enough for the job no were near enough power in the cross I keep for the size of red deer be like sending lambs to slaughter with that head gear an power red deer have but if I had a pair of bull greyhound deerhound greyhounds with a good bit of size an power about them an it was legal id try my luck only if I had a way of retrieving the downed deer or it’s pointless

You can do it with one dog. And I would slip a big single dog on one

You guys are worried about a red stag, try beating my bull/whippet taking a bull elk single handed.

Once in the open not really a challenge, Cape buffalo on the other hand can be a handful for even the best beddy x

Unpredictable but easy, I've always found black rhino to be the most challenging.

True but no such thing as alrounder

Big difference geographically!

Love these theoretical red deer threads. Especially on a Sunday afternoon, which is a time for drinking here in rural ireland.

That doesn't mean I don't believe it can be done but the threads are great entertainment for a semi alcoholic idiot like me.

Yep, southern mice do get slighter larger than their northern brethren.
