Ditto to JC! Other than I don't leave them loose on the rig. I like to confirm a track before I put my dogs down. Helps to make sure they are running it the right way.

Great post Dewey. The bobcat forum has become interesting again.

Rabbits rabbits rabbits! If we have a couple bad years of a rabbit population, I usually will notice a low in the kitten sightings, as well as the bigger toms moving to the lower elevations. This last year Ive noticed more dog boxes ...

Midland XTC 300's work great. Smaller than Go Pro's and are 1080 as well. They come with several different mounts. Adapt to a collar well. Makes for good videos.

Just bought meadow grass for 17.75 a bail. Last year at this time it was 13.00. Dogs will be eating good soon!

I am usually right with them on the track. (if I can keep up)! He is just wound up unless I run him a bit. The good thing is, is that he doesn't open much so he doesn't pull my other dogs off with him.


Good post!

I have a dog that I have to lightly shock every now and then for overrunning a track. If I don't road him for a few miles before I cut a track, I will have to slow him down with Tri Tronics for sure. It works for me. He seems to know exactly what I mean when I push that button.

Exactly!!

I think guys are running for numbers (bragging rights) and only killing if they have a client or a friend wanting to kill one. I dont know about you but to me it seemed like there were a ton of bears around this year.

Good question!!!

It states 1264 as of last week.

Walking a dog out is the answer usually but when they get away from ya and start running it backwards and you can't get them to come back, I will use my Tri Tronics! They learn real quick to come back, then I encourage them to go the right way. I only have to tone them now, because they were trained ...

I use MSR evo's. The cheaper ones. Around 100 bucks. They work good for me.

Live to hunt- you are right. I'm to fat and to chicken to climb them towers or hang from a helicopter! Perfectly fine with my feet on the ground! It takes a different breed to wanna do your guys work..

Good huntin!
