Mark stops by the shop after picking up his new snowmobile. This is not the first time Mark has dabbled with the darkside, so for all of you out there thinking of hunting off sleds, you may want to reconsider…  And what better time to share stories about our trip with the Dogtra team and their special guest? Buddy, Jason and Mark also reflect on thoughts like “I am Dad”, “this is going to be easy” and more!  Lots of good stuff in this one.  Special thanks to Mark Boyer for stopping by and making this episode happen!

Mr. Prock took the time to sit down with Bruce Kennedy to tell stories of hunting big game.  What a great interview with an iconic big game hunter who had 90 years’ worth of stories to tell. CJ hunted around the world and knows what it takes to be a world class Jaguar hunter, including how hard the giant cat can be on a pack of dogs.  There is something about following a hound on horseback and CJ has put a on a few miles to say the least.  Mr. Prock also gives his insight on track conditions and talks of his old cold nose Blueticks that he hunted in some of the roughest trailing conditions around the world. 

Make sure to check out the video for this interview on youtube, brought to you by "Born 100 Years Too Late"

Brian delivered the new DU/Alder Grove Dog Box Kit just in time for our Black Friday sale!  After spending about 15 minutes putting the kit together, we picked up the headsets and got to spend some time talking boxes, Alder Grove’s history and a glimpse into Brian’s hunting. 

We spend some time talking bobcat dogs, beagles and the comparison of track style between the two.We also have some good conversation about knowing the game you pursue and how it can affect your hunting opportunity.

Brian and Buddy also touch on how hound hunting, and the technology has changed over the years. Not only have the tracking systems changed things from the old bell and “beep beep” days, but how boxes, hunting trucks and more have changed over the years. We wrap things up with the great “Hound” vs “running dog” discussion and some food for thought.

To check out the new Alder Grove Dog Box Kit, visit us at www.dusupply.com.  If your looking for something more than the standard boxes, give us a call at 855-384-8687 and we can work with you for a custom box quote.

Jason and Bear were able to have a great conversation with Rasmus about his ideas, training methods and what goes into being a predator hunter in Scandinavia.  Rasmus gives his thought on Black Bears vs. Brown and talks about his dog of choice for pursuing the Brown Bruin, his trusty Plott Hounds.  We also get a chance to talk about the impact Brown Bears have on the Reindeer population in Sweden as well as his work with the Swedish Govt. to collect data to better understand Brown Bear habits. 

We even get into Rasmus’ foxhounds, the differences in track style, and his use of terriers for ground work. This episode has a little something for everyone, so we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed our time together.

When you spend as much time on the trail as these two, you are bound to have some good stories to share. After hearing Jim on episodes 10/11 with Clay Henderson and episode 15 with Mike Root, we are glad Brett and Jim finally had a chance to sit down for some one on one conversation.  Listening to these two will make you want to saddle up, grab a dog and hit the wide-open country. Not only will you hear some great stories of Brett and Jim’s hunting, but also stories of several Houndsmen of the Southwest that have been highlighted in the “Warriors of El Gato Series” thanks to Brett and Bruce Kennedy

Jason and Buddy catch up with fellow houndsman Bear Siragusa of Norway.  Being raised by anti-hunters could have sent Bear a different direction in life, but it seems to have drawn him closer to the life of a sportsman.Bear sheds light on predator vs. Ungulate hunting in Norway as well as some of the specialty breeds that allow them to hunt in rough country and still abide by some "different" size/breed restrictions.   But what episode would be complete without a train wreck? Buddy asks for the type of story that will make you hurt just thinking about it.... and Bear rises to the occasion.

When you get a couple hound guys together there are some good stories swapped, but when you get 4 together, you better grab an extra cup of coffee!  Im sure Bett loved this chance to just sit back and listen to some good friends catch up and tell stories from years past.  We can only imagine the miles these men have put in behind a hound and appreciated them sharing their perspective.  Roland, Jim and Kenny dig into “thinking like a cat” and get into the hunters job when trailing ‘El Gato.

Jess has been with Double U for almost 4 years now and is a huge part of what makes the DU machine run. Its not often you get second chances, but when you do there is usually a good story to go with it...  Jess and Buddy recall the time DU accidentally denied Jess’ job application. 

Buddy and Jimmy swap stories of their early years hunting and influential Houndsman in their life, “Doc” Sowa.  Jimmy and Buddy paint a picture of Doc that will have you laughing out loud. They also talk of Double U Hunting Supply moving shop, Outhouses and more! Thanks for being such good sports Jess and Jimmy!
