Thats the way I’d look at it They don't always catch them doubled up on some places never mind singled 1 Quote Link to post

I've no experience of deer so can't speak on it but foxes I've plenty. Running dogs and terriers are 2 different things every body enters different mind the pun but I've put dogs into quarry in all different ways it's all down to the owner and if the dogs up for or if you think the dogs up for it Quote Link to post

Just for me as times gone on its gotten less about catching everything and more about seeing how good the dog is Quote Link to post

There’s certain things do need doubled on though from time to time I’ll agree i was out every other day when younger driving about at em now i couldn’t think of out worse to hunt boring driving about you can only slip on fox because out else the dog will be f****d and won’t get near a fox Quote Link to post

OldPhil 5,507 Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 (edited) WELL,..this thread (the first one with any real substance, for many a long year) just goes to show,..how very different we all are It is this incredible divergence, in both thought, deed and lurcher type, that has made the running dog world, so unique. Long may it continue... Edited February 15 by OldPhil 9 Quote Link to post
joe ox 2,555 Posted January 24 Author Report Share Posted January 24 5 hours ago, Leo Sayer said: Joe now am talking a few years ago on another forum. I put a post on about some fallow I'd run and you pm,d me asking for the place and I told you. It was called Durrisdeer or near there, we had got lost one night and went over a mountain road and ended up near there and I ran I nice fallow buck. But I'd seen and been lots of times ( as add most of Carlisle Workington and Whitehaven lol ) to fallow at st Anne's and Johnstone bridge. But didn't know the fallow had spread that far. Just out of interest did you ever check out the Durisdeer area and see the fallow ? We went back and never saw them there again ? Cheers Leo I never went to durisdeer but did check out a place near to a Loch I think it was you who mentioned it to me. 1 Quote Link to post
