Not too bad buddy. Its tough running down here. Its been really dry and the tracks keep falling apart. I need some corn running ;D

Thats a nice bear Slade.

I have walkers and plotts or a mix of ;D

those guys running the bear for the farmer will have no effect on your deer or bear for you hunting season. I have seen bear run out of a field, only to be back in it after the dog men leave. The farmer is just trying to save some of there corps. As for the dogs running deer, they are trained not to run them.

The topic is running bears with hounds. NOT hunting bears with hounds! Although you can under a special nuisance permit, take a nuisance bear with hounds.
