Ten Pointer
A conversation between me and my son had me thinking. He asked how many dogs I would have if I ever got back into hunting with hounds. This is just a general conversation. I don’t have dogs anymore and allot of things have changed since I walked away. I’m not planning to own dogs again either just think this is an interesting thought.
When I quit I had four dogs that could each tree a bear from start to finish by there self( on 80% of the bears). Took many years and many dogs to get those 4. I like a four dog pack especially four that can do it by theirselves. So here is my thought. I enjoyed bear hunting immensely for many years but later I was using my dogs bobcats too. Now that is a blast. I like to run hogs but I don’t like the vet bills. So I told him that I thought with enough patience and time and the right dogs. I could do it with two on 80% of bears and 95% on bobcats. Some bears just are difficult and present more challenging hunts. So I know there are many thoughts in dogs, breeds, breeders and so many factors. I’m thinking I could get it done with two stephens curs.
what do you other guys think you would try.
