Just read where it's legal in Florida on private land and maybe 11 other states. I'd think that deer would run for miles, the meat would be ruined, and how does a dog know where to stop?
I've read where there's hunters tripping over each other....and 4-wheelers tearing up the woods with disregard to others. I think I'll pass.

Legal here in Mississippi as well. Most around here use beagles. I think they use them to keep em moving.

Just my way of thinking. And I read reviews from residents. Is it legal in Iowa? It must be illegal in about 39 states.

No it isn't, but I wouldn't say its a bad thing without knowing a lot more about it. Just like hunting over bait, deer drives, crossbows, etc... all stuff people condemn without having the knowledge. smile

you much like running coyotes have drivers and standers the drivers are dogs and the standers tend to stand it off at the next field or road

the truck runs the dogs to the far end of an area then the dogs get let loose that truck quickly drives back to the stander side the deer are often moving when they come to the standers but they also tend to be buck shot legal states.

the areas they are driving are often so thick a man would need a machete and all day to get through a mile

I think it would be great but you need a lot of land and guys to do it right


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I would be interested in learning more. It's not legal here.

It would certainly remove any necessity of skill and stealth. Nothing like going out and enjoying the peace and tranquility of a day in the woods!

Hopefully peta hacked his account and Gary didn't turn into another liberal, anti.

Nope. Just asking questions and read reviews from other hunters in Florida. Everyone has their opinions. I'm asking opinions.

I like dogs and like every kind of hunting I have done with them except coyotes with sight hounds. I dont want to see it outlawed or anything but I dont enjoy it.

I don't particularly care for poking critters with razor blades and callously waiting for them wander off and bleed to death with a high percentage of lost and wounded going to waste but I won't bad mouth it.

I don't either Danny. Now you're going to be called a PETA liberal! I like to see a little bit of sportsmanship and effort on the hunter's part.

Legal here and if done in moderation I have no issue with it as long as adjacent leases or landowner's are in on it. Custom to half the deer with the houndsman. Just a different way to hunt and get the deer moving.
The problem is though that usually it's not done in moderation and often the houndsman could give a flip how the adjacent lease holders or landowners think. Lol.
