Why the laugh Charts, a serious question mate? I've never seen out and out Deerhound runs or a half cross either. I've seen a Deerhound cross struggle to come to terms with a roe on YouTube hence the question.

Greb, I've given you a bit of a wide birth recently, well, you and a couple of others on here, BUT, you seriously need to STOP watching so much absolute bullshit about dogs, especially running dogs/lurchers etc, on you tube.

The best dog I ever saw was a deerhound blooded cross.

Its mother was a heavily deerhound influenced dog and she had killed around 600 deer in her working life I think…..she was I believe (and my memory may be a bit off) put to Scout (or maybe Trigger ?) and that produced Tigger, the dog was just a machine in every single way.

Jmho but that video means nothing !……again, jmho, but daytime deer are a different ballgame altogether compared to night time.

You just don’t understand how say a daytime Fallow can motor until you have seen it and run them……those things can go !

Personally thought it coulda been flattened when it first came away from hedge.  But who knows . Dog might not a been getting its feet right . Looked like wet clay land . Them roe are a total pain in the arsenal

You know yourself mate, dogs miss, it just gos with the territory so to see them miss stuff that’s hard to catch in the daytime is no big deal imho

As you say, there’s all sorts of factors at work.

So why bring up fallow ya gret divy!

That dog didn't look close to catching that roe and it was supposedly a deerhound/greyhound, hence me questioning how capable pure deerhounds really are on deer.

I've stood there my self saying.  " how the hell did it miss that " the grabbers grab on to the misses . But when a dog does something special,  they say little

Have you seen pures run or half crosses, what you reckon mate? And as I said, that dog didn't look that great, just not quick enough.
