Hounds and Houndsmen

Way before the pointing dogs emerged, the dogs that could track, made the pack. To this day there is a primal connection to our past as hunter-gatherers. The Houndsmen of today are keeping the traditions alive. Might be lions, bears, fox or raccoons, no dogman works harder at their passion. Jason and Brett are two genuine sportsmen,and good story tellers! Links Below! Behind the Dog Films - Available Now!

Last day, Best day, Birthday

Hands down, my trip to North Dakota goes into my top 5 all time hunting trips. What was different about this trip was, I came home with 2 birds and one of them was given to me! The real limits are the memories that I brought home. Taking an old dog out for what may be his last season. A young dog that showed me her stuff. And a inexperienced dog that showed me she is ready to step up to the plate and hit some home runs in the future. And new friends that will become old friends. Enjoying the show?
