chartpolski 28,357 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 The question is not which is the BEST X, it's which would make the best allrounder. Bull X's excel at what they do, but I doubt anyone would buy one specificaly for rabbits and hares. Whereas a Deer x could do these and, pre ban, run fox and deer. So for some one who wanted to do a bit of everything, then a Deer X would PROBABLY be better than a Bull X ! Cheers. have a big clumsy Deerhound cross for rabbits and hares Hmmm... I thought you knew your dogs...obviously not. Cheers. Quote Link to post
mush 204 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Thanks i do chartpolski I've had deerhound x greyhounds their rubbish way to big and clumsy 3/4 greyhound 1/4 deerhound are a lot better if their not to big, but their not top hare or rabbit dogs same goes for a 1/4 bull, but a 1/4 bull is going to do other stuff a lot better than a 1/4 deerhound so i would say the bull is the better all-rounder.

OK Mush, I'll run my "big, clumsy" deer x on the quarry I got her for, and if she doesn't do the job, then I'll wish I knew as much as you ! Cheers. Quote Link to post

spud1977 4 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 well its bull crosses for me lads get the wright type put plenty of time into them and theres nothing they cant do!! deerhound crosses are very good but not as versatile as a bull cross. Quote Link to post
scoop and digger 1 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 what of been the best allround dog for foxes hares etc pre ban of course? Think you got to go with the deerhound for the likes of hares pre ban Quote Link to post
