After two weeks of covering lots of ground Heath reflects on Why. Why did he get dogs to start with? Are we using social media for good purposes and are hound hunters really the ultimate selective hunters? So many topics it will make for more podcasts. 

In this episode, Steve talks with five hunters from as many states that came to hunt raccoons with hounds in the White River National Wildlife Refuge in Arkansas this year.   Hunters from the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, South Carolina and Tennessee are included in the conversations.

The episode offers more than three hours of content that collectively describe the hunts and the types of hunting the refuge offered this year.  Perhaps more so than any of the previous fourteen years Steve has hunted the White River Refuge, this year presented many challenges which are discussed in length in the episode.
Whether you take in the full volume of content at one time or carve it into bite-sized pieces to enjoy in coming days, you will enjoy meeting Billy Carter, Robert Cromer, Caleb Griffin, John Staib and Brandon Taylor as they tell their stories in our White River Recap 2004.

Does learning another training method change the way you train? Heath catches back up with Randall Lykins of Liberty Canine LLC of Columbus, Ga. Randall completed NEPOPO silver and gold classes. They talk about how learning other methods helps you become more well-rounded. They also throw in some training issues and fixes. 

November has come and gone. This week is the opening week of Va bear season and Heath has been busy with work, volleyball, and getting a roof on his he shed, aka boat garage. In this short episode, he goes over layers of fog holding scent and how the food source will affect the bear this season. 

At the point of the recording, two nights of a four-night hunt have been accomplished. The account of opening night; a date coon hunters universally look forward to all year long, is the tale of a young dog coming of age and the tale of his journey from pup to coon dog.

Each listener that keeps hounds and loves the outdoors will enjoy this podcast. The conversation will paint the picture of two friends, two hounds, a coon dog and a pup, in an amazing autumn setting that can only be experienced in depth by doing as Steve has done, by getting in the truck and putting nearly 1000 miles on the odometer before the hounds are released into the mountain air on an incredible opening night.

This episode drops on the Monday before Thanksgiving.  Steve extolls the joys of one of his favorite times of year as the episode opens.  Thanksgiving could well be called the hunter’s holiday since so much hunting activity routinely takes place on and around the traditional holiday.

Fellow podcast content creator Clayton Stark’s post on social media forms the basis for reflections by many members of the hound hunting community as they recall special memories.  Moreso than any other, Thanksgiving is a holiday for families; sumptuous meals, football games, recounts of family adventures combine to make the most, for some, enjoyable holiday of the year.

A phone call with Steve’s hunting buddy and frequent traveling companion Arnold “Nubbin” Moore rounds out the conversation as they discuss the upcoming annual trip to Arkansas and the White River National Wildlife Refuge. 

With this episode, Steve and Ella, as well as the crews at Double U Hunting Supply, Alpha Dog Nutrition and Zepp Predator Calls, send a collective “Happy Thanksgiving to one and all!”

When hunters talk, some conversations are deep, intriguing, and meaningful. Heath and George have many off-the-record discussions about everything from dog habits to training techniques and nutrition.  Those conversations are too good not to share. Do you have a parachute in case things go bad? Join us every Wednesday for these types of conversations.
