getting ready for fall
« on: Jul 13, 2012, 01:51:44 AM »
Let's get started. Just wondering how many of us out there have started running our hounds to get them tuned up and in shape for the hunting season. Me and my friend mark (a hunting guide from maine) started wednsday night july 12 and had great results. I have a feeling its gonna turn out to be a great coon season this year.

Been running mine more now that our training season has opened.Working a bunch (too many ) of young dogs to get them ready for a good kill season.

Ive only got one hound and he is 12 years old. I wont take him out untill the season starts. Where are you folks from? I hunt Southern Maine and Rebel does pretty well. He is an awesome strike dog(rig hunting) long bawls on track and the best locate you can imagine. Solid as a rock on the tree with steady chops.

Kudos to the dog for diving right in - But hopefully he's learned a painful lesson about which of those woodland creatures he can mess with.  Mine (he only hunts for food and place to sleep) hasn't had any run-ins with a porcupine, but his learning curve hasn't been great with skunks...
