Please share the story with us (me) about hunting this Roe Buck with your dog.
How?
This is incredibly interesting to me as a dog guy.
We are only allowed to use dogs on Cougar here. Never on a deer.
We hunt most animals with dogs. For most hunters here it is the dogs that makes
the hunt interesting. The dog I use is a shortlegged dog of swedish origin that follows
the roedeer slowly, barking. The more barking the smaller area the hunt stays in. Normally.
The roe normally run slowly and than waits for the dog until he is very near.It actually looks that the
roes think it is fun! This makes a very exiting hunt,when you can hear the dog come nearer and nearer.
The buck on the photo my dog hunted for about 20 minutes and I shot it at about 25meter with my drilling.
We are aloud to use shotguns and max US1.
Normally my dog hunts about 1-1,5 hour. If the roe runs stright away (normally if I spoke it) he stops
hunting after 20 min.
When you use shortlegged slow dogs you can normally take easy shots and it is really relaxing.
My friends have Wachtels to hunt roes,but that is an other affair.
They normally hunts for 15min and very fast.
Than it is full speed and action and shooting is like clay pigeon shooting.
Fun some times but not really my thing.
