US Fox Hunintg


Recommended Posts


Glad you like the pictures and thanks for the interest. The hounds are mine, they are what we call a Walker here in the US. The ones I keep are all closely breed from a particular line that works for me. Low scenting, aggressive, fast running hounds. I hunt them on foot, usually with no help, been using a small pack of nine all season along with me comes two terriers and a shovel. This is my 8th season since starting with my own hounds, accounted for fox #39 and #40 this past week, I am very satisfied with that and having a great time.

Are they pure fox dogs Bones? Or do you run them on anything else?

Mr. Stabs They can do the job on a coyote too. Not as many around as there are fox, but I will catch and/or shot about 30 this year. Coyote running is a nice change to running fox, flat out chasing close up on the game, pretty intense.

Shovel is manufactured in US, made of good steel with wide head, not as light as it may look. You guys really do not want to know about these terriers, I will tell enough so you know what I mean....they are just wee little 10 pounders. You would have to hunt in my area to understand why we keep such small terriers, but the bottom line is that is what it takes to fit in the small holes we have. To get this size terrier there are a few different breeds mixed into them and they come in all colors. As far as the country I hunt in, it varies from open cultvated farm country with small wood lots to steep rock strewn wooded mountains. The hounds I use are the same in either country, but I use different terriers in the rocks compared to those I use when I dig. I have tons of pictures but can only practially post only a few interesting ones, if there is anything particular you would like to see, let me know.

Where you at in the US bones? We are in Ohio and have some coyotes you can come exterminate. Had a pack come in on a cow with a new calf last week. When my husband went out to drive the pair in to the barn, two yotes barked at him and didn't even seem afraid of him. That's a little too brave for me. He has started carrying a 410 with him to feed. Keep chasing those darn pests.

 

Nice pack you have. The boys hunt coon with friends and their walkers.
