I'll second that headache. Unless the dogs are actively running deer the deer really never pay them much attention. But you can't convince the big money antler hunters from the city of that fact. That's the truth, I guess I understand where they're coming from, but they should go along a few times and see what actually happens in the timber. I believe it would change their minds

Angela, you may live in one of the best kept secrets in the hunting world.. MS is a sports person's paradise.. I lived in Columbus a few years and really couldn't believe how few people and how much open ground..I've still got a number of dear friends there and travel back several times a year. Our son stayed on in Columbus, but just transferred to Corpus Christi TX so our visits will get less and less I fear. Great memories!!
Yes it is. There is a lot of land taken up by deer leases just like anywhere else, but all the nearby public land kind of makes up for that. They also have really great hunting and trapping laws....or rather lack of laws, lol. The hunting and trapping laws is why we chose MS over the neighboring states such as AL, TN, and AR. Sorry about your dog, CajunMan. The redbone in my profile pic is tied for my favorite dog along with my childhood best friend. 2 years ago at Christmastime she left the house to go hunting and never came back. I'd never owned a tracking collar in my life up until that point, but I have one now.

Buddy I hunted a lot without a tracking system years ago, just like everyone else, but I wouldn’t turn one loose now without one for sure. Best of luck with your Redbone. I’ve hunted with some good ones of those too!

Coon hunting is a ton of fun. Have owned some good hounds over the years, and some not so good.
Good and bad come in all breeds. I think it really depends on what you are looking for, and honestly what color you like. Research the bloodlines of your breed of choice; traits, styles and size can vary within a breed. All depends on how they have been bred.

Been hunting walkers for a while. Never competition hunt. Just keeping myself in shape chasing up and down hills. You pack unskinned coons back to the truck?
