I'm not saying or trying to imply that there is anything wrong with hunting with dogs, or for that matter that i would personally shoot someone elses dog for running deer. That i posted above is something that i was told when i began hunting with my dad. I've encountered on many trips into the woods, seeing my neighbors dogs running/chasing deer, I informed them of it and that was that. one time there dog was chaseing two doe that almost run me over-well they would have if wasn't for the tree i was able to get around-they were close enough to me i could have reached out and touched them-WOW they were close!! one year (several ago) i was standing on an edge of a cornfeild and there was a couple of guys using dogs for bear-what a sound it was, just listening to them go was truly awesome, i listened to them until they couldnt be heard anylonger and forgot to watch for the deer--oops-- I'm srry for rammbling on. But as long as its done legal go for it, I'm hoping someday i can try it.
