Now I know this post is about bobcats so I'm sorry that my reference partains to lion hunting.

Last year I was hunting Lion in Southern Arizona with Warner Glenn. He hunts off mules in some dry tough country. He had along with him a running walker dog that would sure do the job. I got to questioning him on the dog asking some of those same things you just commented on. He told me that the dog cold trailes with the rest of his and gets along just fine in every aspect of the game. He stated that if the dog didn't look different than the other dogs you wouldn't know he was. I watched him close and Warner was right on. He handled and did everything just like the rest of the hounds.

Bigfoot,

Put the right handle on them and Running Hounds will "Hunt with you" not you hunting them.

It is all in how they are trained. In S. LA Dad used to hunt horse back as well as in S. TX. Joe Rufus Lyne, Cotton Fairchild amd Floyd Warren are all legends in Bobcat Hunting and all hunted extensively horseback. I hear Clinto Brown and some others are currently hunting some horseback and in semi-desert country with Running bred Hounds.

You have described the way Running Hounds handle a track very well, and as Dads Hounds are proving more and more they will TREE.

Great Post! Do you know or hunt with Mr. Jerry King?

Thanks for the kind words Bigfoot!

Mr. Jerry has been a good friend of Dads for years. He is still a hard Hunter @ 80+ years young. He has Clint, a 13 month old littermate to our Princess and King Athur and Glen Rybard's Bigboy and Lillie. Mr. Jerry called the other day to tell Dad that Clint has been treeing on Bobcat, Grey Fox, and a Lion or two. Mr. Jerry has worked to teach and bring this trait forward in the Pup.

Mr. Jerry and his Hunting partner have a nice pack or Trigg/Walker based running Hounds that produce Game.
