Think what you will. Don't really care! Know a lot of small clubs that are old school and do not have/need all the high tech gadgets you guys use to kill ,er run deer. You can do your thing, will do ours....my point is, with todays dog hunting here in central Va., we all will be looking at empty kennels if we don't take a good look at what lays ahead. All the Tracking collars in the world is not going to save a tradition that has been enjoyed for many ,many years,Is far more complicated that a simple gadget.
Sounds to me ur more worried about loosing ur hunting rights with dogs.. I understand ur view in a sense. I feel like clubs need to realize that a 15 acre block is much too small with hounds run a bird dog or Beagle of some kind.. that's common since...
U say all the gadgets in the world won't help save this tradition, how ever the garmin of today can an will help 99% of the problem u go around with ur garmin an mark all ur way points hot spots whatever u prefer an u cast ur hounds u keep an eye on ur garmin an it will tell u exactly where ur dog is no guessing of what side the rive he or she is on an if it's crossing the rd goin on to another trac of land u will kno.. so in all do respect the collars an expensive gadgets are worth every penny.. jus my thoughts
Still waiting to hear what a straight legged beagle is....
Is it that thing where you tape up the joints of a beagle's leg making his leg "straight" so he can't bend his legs and therefore can't run as fast?
Do you put a beagle's legs in a cardboard toilet paper roll so it makes his legs straight and he can't run as fast?
There is a straight legged Beagle and a bench leg Baegle.Straight leg beagles are just one to two inches taller and looking at the chest down they don't have the bowed out legs,don't know if it is crossed with anything or not.I know it's not my conversation but just putting that info so you can look it up or ask a old time rabbit Hunter,Happy Holiday and HAPPY Hunting.
