It is legal here in some parts of SC to hunt certain areas of WMA land with dogs, and I have done it all my life. Only problem now is a lot of paper companies and other private landowners are shutting down dog hunting and the nat'l forest is getting fuller every year. International Paper just this year did away with it on less than 2,000 acre tracts, then after that is a case by case basis with a lot of paperwork mixed in. Getting more and more complicated every year for us. If all the yankees would quit buying all our land that we can't afford any more I don't think there would be a problem with dog hunters except for the few that give us a bad name.
