You forgot: truck box, tracking collars, head lamps, frog leg boots, on and on, lol

There is something nice about listening to the cadence of a hound as he works a track and trees up hard on a nice night though

Nope. There’s something worrying about hearing them hounds running through the woods close to my snare line.

Well there is that... but that’s generally not a concern here for a number of reasons

DPs are better anyway. Raccoons fight a snare hard leaving a mark on the leather.

I do like listening to them while they’re hunting. Not so much any other time though.
I was just talking to a guy not too long ago that still runs hounds. He was saying that just like most breeds half of em won’t hunt anymore. Told me of a story about a guy who paid 4K for a top of the line blue tick. They turned em out and the dog went back to the house.

If I was stranded sure I'd eat whatever, but like Havoc pointed out if you got the time to make coon look good an tasty you ain't starving. Without that will to survive I couldn't get the thought of nastiness out of my head. I don't even wanna skin one but I reckon I will eventually.

Plus I've seen at least 20 deer in the past week they ain't no shortage of them either and I'm 99% positive they eat better and taste better.

I love the sound of a beagle running a rabbit or squirrel we had our fair share of 13in, I've also had a coon dog and that dog never shut up I wouldn't own another personally unless I had a purpose for em which I do not to each their own.

Speaking of deer man I saw so many deer in and around the area of WV I went to. I noticed right away the coats are much darker than here and most of the does I saw were big. You wanna see some scrawny *ss deer man you should see what they got in Florida. They all look like shooters I mean fawns.

This beagle/basset whatever she is doesn’t bark much at all. When she does though you know it. Lol
Beagles are cool but man they are not smart dogs at all. Kinda cool trapping the beagle club checking them all out and watching them run. I’ve never done it but I’d like to hunt over em one day.

We had one of those as a kid too she was a great dog I do recall she was fat as crap though.
