Females in Heat

Post by bency »

For you guys that hunt females, do you feel that your female(s) hunt just the same as she would if she wasnt on her cycle?

Seems to me they are more likely to trash on skunks and javalina..
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

Speaking for myself I have never had any problem with their hunting being affected and I have hunted mostly female my whole life as that is what I prefer. The only thing I can say about them, is when they are coming into heat and during, they take on male like actions marking bushes more often and sexual advances towards the other females. I guess that may slow them down or make them less about business, I have never noticed it to play a big enough role to affect their hunting. Of course that is hunting all females throw a male in the mix and everything changes.

As to my personal Professional opinion. Mostly bear hunting over the years I have come to the conclusion that it depends on the breed. However NOT with the blue dogs . The PLOTTS in particular tend to be TRANS-SEXUAL :lol: :oops: :mrgreen: :beer
