If any of you greats does anything other than TALK then show me a picture or video, so I can have my soap opera to watch after church on sundays.
I have posted many pictures of my dogs and bears that have been caught by them, unlike some of the above mentioned (Larry, Catch) I do get results and have the pictures and videos to prove it. Obviously some people dont like to see others sucsess, I have been accused of bragging on many occaasions and now dont post pictures that often. I am by no means a expert, this is only my second year. I was accused by many last year of taken credit for my results from dogs that was trained by others and bought by me. So this is my second year, and I am still putting a LOT of bears in the trees and have done quite a few of them with the two pups that I bought at 11 weeks old and trained on my own (they are now 15 months old), and both are among my top dogs, and have been 100% trained by me. I am not the greatest bear hunter or have the greatest dogs, but obviously I have been doing something right. I am happy with my results and my dogs, I guess that is all that really matters.

The way you went about getting into bear hunting was a smart way to go and a shortcut to success for sure, but whatever finished dogs you bought deserve the credit.It is my guess that they trained you and your pups how to get it done.
