Guest fence_hopper Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 just a question as im not fortunate to have deer around me but am still curious to what dog would be the best pre ban, do you need a big dog, fast, hard dog, or is your 23 inch allronder capable of doing the job any suggestions would be great Quote Link to post

Guest MURPHY Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Surely it depends what species of deer your persueing. A dog capable of catching and holding a massive fallow buck may not be the best dog for catching a GOOD cwd which can run, turn and seems to have endless stamina. Have a look at what deer your going to be running and what type of land your running on then make a decision. Quote Link to post
