"Houndn'em Bluetics"so utah, first bear rig of the year!

Post by houndnem »

I'm not a very good bear hunter, I struggled through the last couple seasons to say the least. I have got some bear dogs from some good bear guys down in nm, and I hoped it would improve my stats a little. also my "Hook" dog is 7 years old and has been run on lions only. I never dared dump her on a bear until now. we got smoked the first couple races this year, but today hook found us a bear to run from the rig! dumped out and after the dogs were over the hill, we went around and dumped all we had on it. it was treed within minutes, and not too bad of a hike either. enjoy, Jared.

I always thought they were way fast, until I got these couple little plott dogs from those medina boys down in nm. now I would have to say they are average. but this day the little plott dog in the pics blew her pads and my holsteins won the race! the other plott was so fast that she missed the tree. I gotta give it up to both the medinas and bency for trainin up some smokin good bear dogs and sending them my way. Don't know if I could have pulled it off if not for that. also my good friend russel smith had a bunch of dogs in on the race. it was a team effort for sure! we also let the bear live to run again despite having two kill tags in possesion. waitin for that big bore!

Yeah those plotts are almost in a league of their own when it comes to speed. I got one and he is damn fast too. Built just like a couple of my other dogs but is quick! I sure like the looks of your dogs though, they are good looking dogs!

Nice job on the bear. What line of plotts are you running. The guys know that have run plotts in the past describe them as average speed only. I would be interested to know.

Nice lookin bear and congrats. I agree with buck i like the looks of your dogs. breed a little trigg in there and you will have all the speed that you want. Those bears sure are beautiful. It sucks that the closest ive been to one in a tree is on this computer but hey maybe some day oregon will pull their heads out of their asses...... wishfull thinking. Again good job and some very nice looking hounds!

I don't think we have to worry about that. :wink: but I said that I would never own one again and now I have two. but you notice everything hammering the tree is white and black. :lol:

I'm thinking they are weems? not sure. They are seriousely scary fast! personally as a mostly cat hunter, I had all the speed I needed with my walker/ bluetics, but I think on these bears it don't hurt to hall a little @ss!

Nice looking pack. Looked like a picture perfect day to boot. When you decide to outcross Whiskey to one of those fast plotts put me on the list for one of the black and tan males. Lol.

Right on Jared! Where is that black and white cull anyways?

Benny G,

If I ever get that far over the edge then just make sure to cut the rope.

No problem, Mike. I've just got to look out for the future of that little blue pup. :lol:

Nice to see some guys in the state getting some bears. We got several inches of snow over the weekend up here. Hopefully the warm weather this week will wake some up and clear some of the white stuff off the hill so we can get up at them!! :)

Good job on the bear! And thanks for the pics. 8)
