As I have stated before, I dont hunt deer with dogs, but I do believe a dog hunter that wants to hunt deer with dogs and it is leagle in the area that he or she is hunting in has just as much right to hunt there as anyone! As far as hound hunting being easy, I hunt bear and mt. lion with hounds in the northwest mountains, if you think that it is easy you obviously have never done it. Shooting bear or deer over a bait or a food plot is alot easier than chaseing a hound up and down thick timbered mountains.
