Still hunting allows you to lure in a deer with food plots,corn feeders, doe urine or rattling, and then instantly ambushing them. Dog hunting gives deer the advantage by allowing him to run freely ahead of the dogs. This will always be a much more exciting hunt that is truly missed in the Great State of Texas. I guess Hog Dog Hunting will have to do for now. Obviously the 1st blogger's (Dale's) not much of hunter if he thinks dog hunting is easy.

I have hunted with dogs all of my life. I have also still hunted. I don't get the same pleasure from still hunting. Hell I would rather hear the dogs run than kill a deer most days, and all you people bad mouthing people hunting with dogs, don't knock it until you try it, you don't know what your missing. My grandpa has hunted with dogs for 70 years and if he was told he couldn't run his dogs anymore I don't think he could survive so all you left wing tree huggers can kiss my conservative heritage loving ass. If you don't want dogs coming on your property then but a fence around it where a dog and a deer can't cross dogs can't read. Its not just the dog hunters that hunt from the road I've seen plenty of still hunters shoot deer from their truck windows, but they are just bad seeds aren't they. All I got to say if you want to kill the economy even more then outlaw hunting with dogs and make your President Obama happy cause hell you probly voted for him. I live in appomattox va.

Stop talking about shooting at deer running 30 MPH, stop telling people that its your GOD GIVEN RIGHT to dog hunt, because its not, and stop telling people that they are wrong to still hunt because "anybody can execute" a deer still hunting. Im from a dog hunting family and over the last 35 years I have seen dog hunters run across yards shooting deer, running cars off the road, cutting private fences and trespassing, totally disregarding land owners rights and using the same lame excuses. This year, on the 7000 acres surrounding me dog hunting was banned by the timber co. I saw more deer this year on my place than in the last 15 altogether because I didn't have a pack running through from oct. 1 th jan 31. Sorry guys, but if you dont police yourselves, you are a thing of the past. personally I think its too late, but you can try.

It has become in some places an event that the use of hounds 15 inches and smaller are required I do this as it just keeps the entire day alot less stressfull. One last item I would like to add. most times the deer is taken in front of a pack of hounds, the deer at times can be as far as 15 minutes ahead of the dogs and unless ill or injured the hounds are never "right" behind it Anyone have any questions about this style of hunting I will be glad to answer them, it is a huge part of my faimlies life, that involves 30-40 of us in the entire days hunt with only 10-15 of us involved in the actual hunt Dog hunting deer is a pure social event

There are druggies and drunks in every corner of our social makeup

I do hate it when people put there hounds in bad places, whether it be close to a road ot close to private property where dog hunting is not allowed

The original thread sounded to me as though this person had some strays run across his stand
We take alot of effort in making sure our hounds, if lost can be indentified and we can be contacted
We also use tracking collars

Last week we had a devestating experience. We are dog lovers. My husband accidently hit a hunting dog. We killed it. I cried and cried, actually still do. This poor dog had a number painted on her side and big box around her neck. The hunt club was given our numbers by someone that helped us. Later that day they came and got the dog, and their box. But they never contacted us. We would have gladly paid the value of the dog, and then some. It cost several thousand to have our vehicle repaired. After reading on this site I can see where some people truly care for their dogs and see the value in hunting WITH a dog. But people should do it responsibly as one young lady pointed out. There was a truck on the side of the road full of dogs. Not sure if it was the same club but why would anyone allow their dog on a fairly busy road? My husband returned to get our vehicle, we're out of staters, and passed 3 puppies walking along the same road where we killed a dog. For those who do not hunt it is absolutely devastating to kill a dog. They are domestic animals in our world. Our dog lives in our house, is treated almost like royalty! Hunt responsibly! Also, we swerved to try and avoid the animal. We could have hit another car head on or collided into a tree. We're lucky it was as little money as it was. It was the mental trauma that was bad. Just wanted to share our story in hopes that people would take care of these beautiful puppies. I’m researching hunting with dogs. Last week we had a devestating experience. We are dog lovers.
