Virginia Hunting with Hounds Study

[Hunter's Moon]

I've lurked a long time but am compelled to post because of this Study.

I have hunted with and without hounds, and I understand why some still hunters dislike hound hunters so much. I also deeply respect the rights of landowners, and fully support their right to restrict access to their property.

Having said that, I must tell you that hound and still hunters are completely mistaken about this study. The Strategic Advisory Committee has indeed made some reasonable recommendations - but they are only recommendations. I'm sure many good houndsmen and landowners guided these people and I appreciate their efforts.

If any of you reside in Virginia, visit this Commonwealth for pleasure or business, have bought your hounds from breeders here - please email your strong support of hunting with hounds to HoundHuntingSAC@vt.edu
before September 12th. If any of you have any questions, I'd be happy to do my best to answer them. Thank you!
