Your probably right to be wary, although you should be pretty safe with stories from overseas. They make a good read so dont stop posting, makes me want to plan a holiday! Do they ever hunt from horseback?

ye some do but all the cattle roads on the plains or prairies are acsessible so walkings good and i like a good stretch of the legs, done the horse back thing good fun to,i open up sometimes mate usaly one to one about real memories ,sometimes im hard work and can be a fecher but if i lke a guy etc they get looked after ,and show them respect , but the normal posts on here can make your blood biol , when i think of the hassle and time ive put into hunting breeding good dogs ,all the best tyla

Cheers Whin, the reason i asked about the horses is that its a bit of a dream of my wife's to hunt like that, not to hounds like here but to running dogs like ours. If thats a possibility then it makes talking her round alot easier if we ever scrape up the pennies for that kind of trip. ATB

Thats good to know, I'll have to do a bit of earning first (Im in the first year of a new business) but once it all comes together I will be in touch. I'd much prefer to go to someone recommended than just take a guess at it. ATB

a good yarn whin , hope you found old David in good health, did you get to see his australian deerhound when there?missed out on the hog hunt when I was there but saw some great jack rabbit races from davids rabbit dogs.

pretty rough country to be running dogs out there a, they always came back looking like pin cushions from the cactus they ran through.
