Who has Merriams?

Merriams turkey were introduced here but they were not real successful. I have seen a few on my farm but there is an established group of them a few miles away that seems to do real well.

OK New England houndsmen

John, We fill hollow logs with bait (usually cookies) stand them upright with one end burried in the dirt. On the top we put a big rock or somthing. This way we know somthing big enough to be a bear was at the bait. Sometimes we also get lucky and rig one but most of them are run off of baits...

Getting ready for hide season???

Whare I live there are tons of coon but no bear. Usually my dogs are real straight on coon and it takes a couple of times hunting bear to get them interested in something new. Its interesting to me how dogs trained strictly on bear seem to be more willing to tree other game than dogs trained...

Natural Selection

I understand your point Dan, What I am getting at is that deer are no different than any other animal in that some are high strung and others are very easy going and unaffraid. In a high preassure area the later type are the first to be elliminated. Over time the more anxious-high strung deer...
