Stags during the rutt

[lurcher330 2,301]

Where stags easier or where they more aggressive during the rutt for dogs (pre ban)i know you will find stags out and about more during the rutt but with them putting all their energy into fighting other stags and chasing hinds where they easier for dogs to take or where they more willing to put up a fight

^{in ma opinion a stag would be more dangerous through the rut due to the adrenalin and testosterone pumping through there veins, they are highly aware of there surroundings and enemys ( other stags, dogs, people) this making them a great deal more dangerous than at other times of year}

[noddy10 411]

stags are more dangerous and unpredictable in the rutt.

yeah but would they have less energy to put up with a decent course from a dog,with them not eating as much and spend time fighting and chasing after hinds,making them an easier target for a dog

maybe easier to catch but harder to deal with

[reddawn 2,173]

does anybody think a dog could catch an deal with a rutting fallow singlehanded???? pre ban ofcourse

[DEERMAN 1,020]

maybe easier to catch but harder to deal with

[whin 463]

always liked abeast you can sling over shoulder deal with it and move on all this talk of big this and that well sounds good and in the [bANNED TEXT] place be good but alot to lug about unless a few of you , give me a good old roe buck easy to get rid and easier to handle ,

stags just before the start of the rutt are real strong and weigh alot more but as the rutting goes on they do not eat and lose alot of weight and are alot more tired from all that fighting and shagging this i only know for fallow not sure on other breeds but would imagine its the same atb oneshot

As you know chaps..the correct question should be Pre Ban of course. and Pre Rutt or Post Rutt.
