moonlighter 1,163 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 The only reds I’ve ever seen were in Richmond Park, as I was biking round it last year.. absolutely massive they were. I’ve ran fallow in the past and these looked twice the size, especially there necks.. it’s a no from me. Quote Link to post
MickC 1,825 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) Hinds are taken a lot easier than Stags.It's all down to the individual beast (Stag) some take off and can't be stopped using every bit of the terrain to there advantage,some take off get tired and then stand there ground and seek sanctuary in shallow rivers,flooded peat diggings,streams etc and some are just big ignorant beast that hardly move and don't recognise the danger till it's too late. I've seen all types take them Colliex Bullx Deerhoundx Bedlingtonx Salukix. Up Caithness early 90s I seen them ran regular with a mates Deerhoundx and these where good dogs,however the best dog up there for them was a firstx Saluki/Greyhound,I'm sure it was called Brandy iirc,a big 28" dog.

I know you probably don't care mick, but you know hardly anyone off here is going to believe you. A first cross saluki/greyhound? Come on lol By the way, I am a believer 1 Quote Link to post

I never even seen the Brandy dog run mate but the lads who told me about it all had there own dogs running the same stuff and they where not the type to lie or give credit to a dog that didn't deserve it. Those that have ran them know they can be taken and those that have not are usually the ones doubting it . Just the way it is . 6 Quote Link to post

The further North you get they dont get as big as the some of the South/Park deer due to environment/food availability but certainly still a formidable task.

A young pair of 5/8 Bullx litter brothers with a Stag late 90s, also a pic of a hind standing with 24” Bedlington/Greyhound.Try pulling these off a hillside in the middle of nowhere. That stag looks shagged out tbf mate Quote Link to post
