runforyourlife 361 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 There is no way a dog single handed could take down a fully grown Red Stag. I see them everyday in life and no f*****g way could it. Aye, it might be able to get a grip and hold on but anything more, naaaa, never buying it. Well, they have mate. You seen them with your own eyes mate? Actually pull a red stag down and look like it could dispatch it on it's own accord? We are talking about lurchers here, dogs capable of catching other game like rabbit, hare, the odd fox? What do you mean "the odd fox"? Can i ask you Baw, what type of lurchers you seen working? In my lifetime? I've seen whippet crosses, collie greys, bull crosses, saluki, beddys, seen an alsation cross once, it was shit hence saw it once.... at the moment mostly Deerhound crosses and collie crosses. I have a deerhound cross, stands just under 29tts, I'd refer to him as a game dog. I'm not going to even remotely talk about incidents regarding subject but let me just say, up here it is enevitable you bump into stuff and on a few occasions he has been on "terms" and I'm just thankful he hasn't been injured. Now, as I stated, I can't for the life of me see a dog single handed taking down a fully grown red stag, not the kind we have around here. You'd need to be very lucky that it brought it down near your feet so you could dispatch but with the terrain I see them, you'd need a bottle of oxygen to get to the bloody dog. I've read books about such animals taking down deer, I have also read books about fairies at the bottom of the garden. Like I said, have you actually seen a dog with your own eyes take out one of these animals? Ok fair point. Maybe they are lieing... Where is it you live, i take it its in the highlands mate..

SPOTTY BACKED BIG RACK 90 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 runforyourlife have you ran all six in numbers and took mature bucks/stags in all the species? before the ban obviously.

What ever the subject is on this running dog forum you always seem to feel qualified to answer and in most cases have very strong views. Forums are for opinions mate. And no and no. never said i have. Read my posts on this thread, and i have stood corrected everytime. Its a good thread mate, with no arguing, till someone says something like this. I am learning mate of more qualified that myself, so pls go away, and dont try for bother, not interested.. Said it before, and i'll say it again. i comment on things i feel i can, or know a bit about, or have practiced in the topic.. Ie, dogs, fishing, ferreting. i dont go on the hounds, guns, birds, poultry, etc...maybe we shouldnt know anything. Why do you think half the guys who have done what you asked, dont speak, because they get that type of attitude, and arent allowed to have knowledge or no about the topic... Quote Link to post
runforyourlife 361 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 p.s. i feel as i worked the dogs most days, i would be a bit gormless if i didnt have ideas, be them right or wrong, or if i didnt learn anything, or had nothing to say on a topic which i am fully committed to, sorry if it offends you mate..
