Me and Dexter thought about rehabilitating soldiers coming home. Instead of buying a crotch rocket we would just take them hog hunting. Should be exciting enough.      

[BayedUp]

i called the forest service and they told me yes you can use dogs hogs can be killed by any legal means

[Dexter]

 yeah its a  ideal turning into a pipe dream

i hunt corp land around lake texoma without any problems... i always thought that u couldnt run dogs during deer season but a buddy of mine told me u can it just makes the deer hunters not so happy with ya

Yeah I was told by people at Davy Crockett you can run during deer season except sometimes the deer hunters "mistake" your dog for a deer    It came from a guy who said he lived there so idk what the rule with that is lol

[ole shep]

Did you talk to the General ? I think the It would be a good project for LSWDA I say that not knowing if I'm a member for sure. I will be if not already.

Springtime they have a meeting there on Hood to decide what the rules will be for that year and if they want to make any changes.  I work on Hood every day, once I get back to the states I can see when this next meeting will be and maybe who we need to talk to.

I ran some core land. You want to keep as low profile as you can and have to use your head when hunting public land. I would never run during deer season and if I had to it would be at night. No point because you know there are going to a bunch of idiots in the woods and I dont want my dogs shot. You also have to think about the future of running dogs. If you piss the deer hunters off, when it comes rule making time the deer hunters will win everytime...We as hog doggers have the cards stacked against us. I'm already seeing it around me. Prime example I know a few guys in town that have no business running dogs that will go down in the bottoms during the prime of deer season during the day and run hogs around in circles. The core guys was hearing alot of flack about it from the deer hunters and ol be damned if the new rules came out saying NO HOG DOGS ALLOWED...Alot of these core and public lands say nothing about running hogs with dogs but if the high ups hear about it will likely be changed against us..Just my thoughts..

[ole shep]

Hook me up Dextar! CWhite I hear you that holds true for almost every place I hunt.

Hate to say it but it would be a very hard sale to run dogs on hood. If they were to allow it . I doubt it would last more then the first year. I would think money is better spent keeping what public land we do have and education in our own ranks. It is a losing battle.

You can and have been able to run coonhounds in there since before I can remember. You can run coons tonight if you have the proper permits...takes about 30 minutes to get them on base.

[catchrcall]

Yep.  You can run rabbits and squirrels out there too.  Just no hog dogs or blood trackers.

[cantexduck]

I know about being able to run coons. The deer hunters are the ones who will cause the probelms with the hog hunters. Well, the other way around, but you get what I am saying.

[ole shep]

My cow dogs bay some potbellies there once. Besides some of those pigs where mine that  got loose I would like to have them back was planning on retiring on that herd.  What about granger man we could meet and hunt there
