    Ways to hunt Bear

    Well JJHack I will tell you another difference between a bait hunt and a hound hunt. Most bait hunts are a couple hundred yards into the woods,sit down and wait. A treed bear is ussually a long hard hike through the roughest terrain you can imagine.You are now playing in the bears territory and...

    GeorgeP

    July 15 training starts here. You are right I can hardly wait. Dying to see what these new dogs can do. I have bought enough dogs over the years to know not to brag on them until I see them go.Unlike a couple guys I know in Maine that as soon as they buy a dog it is the next world champion bear...

    Scent drags for big game?

    Hi Jt. Glad to see you made it here. Working hounds with scent drags is one thing I have NO experience with. I have talked to a lot of people that start dogs that way but I have never seen it done. I guess it couldnt hurt trying. I just dont have a lot of confidence in bottled scents smelling...

    hey houndsmen is this true?

    I guide quite a few hunters each year with my hounds. Hardly ever has anyone asked about the tracking collars. Most hunters are concerned with them getting a bear and thats about it. I go out of my way to try and explain about the hounds and equipment but most sports could care less.

    Bear kills man

    the guy must have been an idiot. We had a local guy here 2 years ago that pulled a bright one too. He had a bear that was getting into his bird feeders in the spring. He called the Fand G dept and complained about it. They told him to remove his feeders and the problem would go away. He said...

    moose hunt for tobey ?

    That is him. Some guys have all the luck. It seems like the same guys get permits all the time. Guides like him get some sort of special treatment. He must have buddys that work for the Wildlife Dept. I am trying to think of all the things people that didnt get permits are saying !!!! Thanks...

    Big D, Thumper, Cathunt-mt

    HntrJohn. The airline meant that the temps couldnt be 80 or higher to ship a dog.As long as the temps at both ends and all stops are between 32 and 80 you can ship. If the temps look too high or are real close try and ship or recieve the dog either early morning or evenings. I have shipped alot...

I think I have more...

    Registered or Not, what do you think??

    I agree with Gato and Catman.There are plenty of good and bad in both.If every thing else was equal I too would prefer a registered dog.I have some of both now.I like reg dogs better for a couple reasons.One is tracking their age.Awful hard to tell the difference between a 5 and a 7 yr old grade...

    Finaly found some one

    You are right BullHunter,it works out great.The only thing that stinks is when I want to go and cant find someone to go along.When people own their own dogs they are way more motivated to go run.It is great that my dogs get a lot more work than if I was hunting with a group of hound owners.Then...
