RE: Virginia hunting with dogs!?!?
i know what you mean about dogs in the woods i hunt western nc and the first day of bear season there were no vehicles in the area i hunt so i went to my stand about an hour before sunrise (its about a 2 miles from where i park) 30 mins after sunrise here came the dog hunters and jumped a bear about 200 yrds from my stand. this type of action gives all dog hunters a bad name since they walked right past me and just looked up and smiled when they came back after the dogs lost the bear i told them that if i saw the bear being run by the dogs it was mine they did not like the idea of someone shooting a bear in front of their dogs. i just told them tuff luck. i know that there are dog hunters that hunt with respect to other hunters but idiots like this a bad
