No, its usually done in a block or an area where you can surround. One man will take the dogs in and turn them lose to jump the deer and the others are standing around the borders to catch the deer crossing out.

Gotcha. Thanks.

It's because of the terrain. A pack of walkers can run 30 miles an hour on dry ground and they keep up with the deer way better. It makes for some very fast chases that go a long ways.
The dogs simply can't keep up in the swamp.

That's not how it's done here. Wish you could have seen the roads in Kisatchie during the peak of it.
Camp Claiborne offered something that gave the hunters huge advantages and it was done very often there. The fact 1000's of acres are split into small blocks by the old unused roads gave the hunters small areas easily surrounded and the deer had to cross someone basically.
ETA: Ive done it and it took the sport out of hunting to me. All it offered was target practice at shooting deer running wide open.

There were way too many people on the roads. I mean the numbered roads. It was pretty scary.

Yea. I grew up with our camp off or 212B so we drove by them over and over again going to and from the camp. Knew quite a few of them also. Ive never been to the camp when it was open that 10 people or more werent standing on the road with guns in hand. I understand why people have a problem with it. They ran our way alot also, but all they were doing were pushing deer onto our property that werent there to begin with so we took advantage and always hunted major crossing when it was open.

Never heard of anyone getting shot, but Ive heard of close calls. I didnt do it much, just on a few occasions. Like I said, it didnt appeal to me. And like you said, I felt way too nervous. When we did we spread out pretty good, but someone would always leave there place and go to where the dogs were headed and that meant they were in someone elses range.

They all have radio trackers now.
Go to the nearest gas station and just put them on the next big rig out of town. If any dog, collard or not crosses my path while hunting it is dead, unless I recognize it.

I've returned every dog I've found. Spent enough time out there to get quite a few dogs following my truck. Makes me wonder just how far he/she roamed for me to be the one finding it. The owners have always been nice and showed up quickly. I'm a softy when it comes to the critter.

Exactly. You know where I lived on the Bayou. I had dogs all the time coming to the house. I would tie them up and the owners would always show up. Even let one borrow my boat to go across and get one that crossed the bayou. Ive never met one dog hunter that wasnt nice and thankful, never. Thats why my first post in here was calling out those whining about it on here and what all they wanted to do, but didnt mention any attempts at talking to the hunters. I know some have and it wasnt directed at them.

Thats what I said. I like to hunt alone.

Dogs generally do not mess up your hunting. Dogs really don't bother deer that much. I've seen deer come in five minutes after the dogs go through. Most dogs don't have a prayer of catching a deer and the deer know it. Most of the time, they aren't even running when you see them. They are so far out in front of the dogs that they are walking.
Late in the season after the deer know they are being hunted, you should be downright thankful if your neighbors are running dogs because that may be the only way you are going to see a deer.

You sir would get your arse shot if you were to shoot my dog.
Do you own a dog?

as well you should.....it ain't the dogs fault....
someone asked me once.. when a guy who was hunting the property line of my friends property was bitching about our bird dogs - on OUR land....saying he would shoot them if he saw them again....
I shudder to think what my response would be if one of my bird dogs were shot in that scenario... It would be a safe bet it would likely make the news...

Oh, and one more thing. It is laughable that anyone shooting a deer while sitting in a box blind ten feet up in the air over a pile of corn would say anything about the "ethics" of shooting deer being run by dogs.

Havent heard that one yet ... Good point...
