Re: I thought snow was supposed to be easier!?

Saturday was the first day of our South Dakota bobcat season. All we did was embarrass ourselves... I agree with twist on snow and hounds. Snow sure helps me to find tracks but I am not sure it helps hounds that much. This year I have one veteran and two eight month old pups to run. Danny was quick ...

Re: Tailgate Adventures TV Show

I have made a point of watching each show except for one. In a half hour program I feel you have done a good job of represents hound hunting to the general public. Yet in such a short amount of time it is hard to show or explain why we veterans really run hounds. Its tough to picture the pleasure we ...

Re: What size and build do you most prefer for you big game dogs

No one is stating a preference for sex as they state their preference for size. Amoung littermates it is easy to see a ten or fifteen pound difference between males and females at full maturity. I wonder if we are in some cases comparing apples to oranges.
I like a athletic leggy hound that fall ...

Re: Dad's dogboy

I'll sign this card to!! I love hunting bobs to in a much different area though. By reading DBs' posts I have learned charecteristics of bobcats that we don't see here because of our differing hunting terain. I truly enjoy his posts.

Re: retired dogs

The questions posed here are gut questions that each houndsman must deal with individually according to his own situation and views. Personally I can't imagine selling a old freind. On the other hand I have never allowed one to suffer his last days or hours either no matter how it hurt to put them ...

Re: changing of the guard

I lost my old hound in January. I found I wasn't the only one in are pack counting on him! It wasn't the same without him for a while but other hounds have developed to fill the void he left and we are back getting the job done.

Re: Want to See Everyones Cameron Hounds

I am impressed with how uniform the cammrons are in all the pics. I have two 3/4 cammron x smokey river pups that I am about ready to start. They are real similar in type to these pictured. I guess that is a compliment to Dels breeding program. To me the personality traits I look for in a hound are ...

Re: muzzle loader questions

The only reason I switched back to modern rifles for hunting was because I became part of the bifocal crowd and needed a scope to shoot at game accuratly. If you are ...

Re: Tree Climbers

I am probably going to bring the roof down on my head for this statement but here goes. I have never tried to stop any hound of mine from climbing. I have never had a hound with any kind of injury because of it. They learn their limits. They don't like being up in the tree when the action starts on ...

Re: tailgate adventures tv

I think it is to be on again at 6:00 PM mt Sunday night on channel 230 dish network. I watched it Thursday morning at 5:00 am. It was a good show that explained much to a newbie. It showed nothing that should have upset any of the antis I don't think. I wish them my best!!

Re: CONCEALED CARRY

My SD permit only cost $5 or $10 so I don't take a chance on a concealed weapons problem. The permit that I have is honored in several other states. I don't understand why it isn't okay in all states.
