Re: Natural Tree or Trained to tree?

Can/t say have had ravens help find bobcat, but can say I have walked away from a tree where
I was unable to find the cat and after getting too far to want to walk back to that tree. I spotted the bobcat in that tree,

Re: Natural Tree or Trained to tree?

An ever better of cougar not being easy to locate, George Horner was a long time well know houndsman in this area told me about an experience. He started track early morning, dogs trailed for hours, when he found a track & knew dogs were backwards. Turned the dogs around, getting late in day whe...

Re: Deer Hunting With Hounds

Mule man you are hunting with different type dog than most I hunted with here. I have not ran many deer and if they ran one they were punished. A trail hound and couple yard dogs here can catch and kill these black tails. Year or so ago had such combo running deer regular where my home is located, f...

Re: Deer Hunting With Hounds

If it was legal in Oregon, it may be fun to get a couple beagles, smaller type and listen to them run. If I hunted them with the dogs I owned in the past, there would be the worry dogs would bay them up.

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs

Mule man it must be these black tail deer are not as difficult to catch as those whitetails. Not saying all these are easy to catch, but they are much easier than catching coyotes in this country. Now days with all modern equipment much easier to have a pack of broke dogs, Also helps once a hunter h...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs

Thanks for the answer, i think most of the deer belle ran were started red hot. I don/t think terrain got get much rougher than here where I did most all my hunting. I did get belle broke to a point to where Tom Barnette would say lets just use belle to start we want catch a bear today. But even the...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs

Perk this opinion of mine has nothing to do with you or anyone/s post, I will use the belle female I wrote about as an example, she would not pull to other dogs most times, she did her own thing, but recall the first time I hunted her with my mentor Clarence Berg/s pack. Dogs started a cold bobcat, ...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs

Perk here have seen dogs that I and others owned that were three to five years old before they made dogs one could depend on to locate and tree on bobcat. Dogs have a short life spam my experience best years are 5,6 & 7. If a dog is helping catch game always tough decision when to give up on the...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs

I f they false treed and I could be sure they were false treed, in old days gave them a harsh talking & switching. In more modern used the e collar. I never got real heavy on unless it was happening too often & dog was not searching well before treeing. Hunted with a good hunter some that us...

Re: Dogs,Dogs,Dogs

I kinda read your post wrong yesterday. Yes sure nice to see dogs start like the Belle female. But those type dogs can be too quick tree some times. Instead of hype them up to start & tree one has to work on taking some tree out of them it can be done, but mostly likely not 100%. I learned with ...
