The first thing my bitch ever took was a deer a muntjac to be procise never paid any attention to any other quarry at all and at 8 months banged it over on the plough the next was at 10 months then she took deer ever since as being her number 1 priority nothing else really mattered to her so long as she pulled down deer.....

My lurcher bitch took her first muntjac at two years old,messy affair though,she took it by the arse and wouldn't let go.Had to cull the deer with the dog still hanging on to its rump.She's far more skilled now,and doe's the job by herself.We only ever catch them by accident though.

I had my Bullx pup and his litter mate out with some older dogs one night and was letting them watch the older dogs running the Deer just to introduce them and give them an Idea of what I expect from them.My two mates had slipped there dogs onto a herd of Fallow and they had dispersed in all directions.As they were walking the fields one way I was walking sort of into were the other lads had been about 20 mins before.I was just scanning the feilds with the lamp and I picked out a hind walking up the fence looking a bit as though it was on wobbly legs so I slipped both the young dogs and they ran straight over to it and pulled it to the ground.The two pups were 8 month old at the time.The only thing we could think of was that the hind must have earlier on ploughed into the fence when the other dogs had broke the herd up thus making it half concused and gave the pups the perfect chance to pull it.I wasnt complaining.

Ive just checked with my mate who owns the other pup and he says they were 10 month old at the time :icon_redface:

Mylast lurcher had his first Roe at 12 mths, about two days after his first rabbit.I dont think Roe take much catching, Hares are a lot harder

 

Certainly not the hardest deer to catch but have you ran many because i certainly wouldn`t say they dont take much catching but there you go.....

i always wait till about 18mths because if they get a bad experiance it dosent set them back like it would if they where younger i see pups take at 8 mths but when i c them the following yr they hestate be4 the take becouse of a kick they got as a pup
