And where would you find a herd of deer just standing around anyways?
Unfortunately, almost any afternoon in my yard... A few weeks ago I looked out the kitchen window at 4:30 in the afternoon - broad daylight, and counted 4 doe and five yearlings/fawns... Brazen little hussies!
I know, I know...I have 8 that come in every evening, but they just dont stand there like cows. At least not when faced with one or two dogs...No time for the squirt gun manuever (sp?)
There might be 6 as soon as I run out...just kidding of course...anyone here a Conservation Officer...
I highly suggest a compound bow. In some states, you can harvest a deer on your property without a license, unless I'm mistaken. Razor sharp broadhead, perfectly placed shot, lots of deer don't appear to feel a thing. Mmmm
A dog has alot of friends because he wags his tail instead of his mouth.
Depending on your fitness level and time you can spend shooting, you could be proficient in a few months. Helps to have the ability to shoot on your own property.

Couple of similarities here, Here if they are owned deer on say park land etc then it is legal to shoot a dog or animal that is chasing them , and yes they're currently trying to bring about laws banning the use of an E-collar in England and where this guy lives happens to be Wales which have already passed legislation banning they're use , or i would totally agree with the fact that an E-collar is going to be most effective !
We have way too many deer here. A police officer last year was going to work on a motorcycle was killed by a semi truck while avoiding a collision with a deer. I see deer almost daily.
I used to live in Upstate NY, and i saw deer every single day just like you cheryl , not so here in the UK they're confined to park land for the most part!
I let my boxer chase deers in my back yard. He doesn't go after them unless I tell him too. I only allow this when the deer gets too close to my yard. Vegetables and flowers draw their attention/appetite.
I don't think any dog can come close to catching a deer. Boxer doesn't even come close, and my last dog, a boarder collie mix, never got close either. Collie mix was fast!!
My boxer got to the point where he'll just give up 8-10 seconds into the chase.
How many years of target practice would it take to become proficient with a compound bow? Just curious.
LOL!
I'm from the most indigenous country in all Latin America. I'm the poorest example of a hunter. I'm the laughing stock of the family in regards to hunting. I also have the most highly technological compound bow in the family. Sad.
Simply put, some people are not born with it. With some it takes a few month, others, it just never comes.... regardless of your lineage. Oh yeah, I'm the only one afraid of heights! My country is nothing but Mountains!! I love Maryland!
