Bwana, I would LOVE to, but can't...

I do not own the dogs. The fellow I go with does not hold a guide license and he won't take anybody but friends.

As a matter of fact, I am not certain if he is going to stay in the game. He says no. The safe area for hound hunting is alomst gone now. Meaning, hounds cannot be run in areas where there is a large number of wolves and the expansion of wolf numbers is driving out hound hunting in our area as it has in other areas. Wolves are destroying the sport, and I suspect it will be gone in just a few years. Hounds are destroyed constantly. Fellow I know just lost 3 more right before the season closed a couple weeks ago. All killed or had to be put down. It is a mess. I can't blame the hound hunters. Hounds cost thousands of dollars and years of training, and wolves kill them constantly, with little or no compensation for the losses coming from the State or Feds. It is yet one more aspect of wolf introduction that is costing the people of the State.
