Chris dives deeper into the causes and corrections of common problems at the tree with our hounds and curs. 

We are looking for dogs that tree game with good manners consistently. Treeing issues such as leaving, aggression or bad habits have dominated the conversations of tree dog enthusiasts for generations.

In this episode of the Houndsman XP Podcast, Chris will break down some common problems and some common fixes and methods to correct issues.

I hope you all enjoyed episode 200! We're continuing on with 201, and just a heads up, from here on out, I'll publish what I can, when I can publish it. Unfortunately, there might be more remote recordings in the future, but I'll do my best to continue to do in person when I can. This episode and a few others were supposed to be recorded in person at the Arizona meet in Camp Verde, but because of some unfortunate circumstances, I had to cancel plans last minute. Fortunately, one of my planned guests, Wayne Skankey, agreed to join me remotely after the meet to discuss his falconry, juggling his career around his falconry, getting to live in Taiwan for a while and seeing falconry there, and flying merlins and peregrines, amongst other things!

Slick Treeing is a common term in the hound world because it is a common problem. No one wants to make a hike into a dog that can’t trail and locate game in the right tree.

Jerry Moll joins Chris in this episode of the Houndsman XP Podcast to have an in depth discussion on slick treeing. Jerry and Chris discuss the history of trailing hounds to the more recent Tree Dog.

Well, here we are folks.... Another couple of big milestones for the podcast! This 200th episode also marks two years of being on my own under Falconry Chronicles, and I held this recording back to mark such an occasion! The guest for this episode, Dr. Ken Riddle, has been requested many times over the years, and thanks to the help of Rob Rainey, Robert Bagley, and other mutual friends, this recording was finally able to take place last summer. I'm so glad that it did, because Ken has roughly 75 years of falconry experiences and memories, and over this nearly 3.5 hour long episode, you'll get to hear quite an amazing story! It goes without saying, but it's impossible to encompass 75 years, 35 of which were in the Middle East, in 3.5 hours, but Ken shares an overview of some of his life, endeavors, and accomplishments in this lengthy episode, and because some of these things need clarified and expounded upon further, he's already agreed to another follow up episode! This recording is a great example of why I've been motivated for so long to continue the podcast, and why I've believed in this mission for so long. I appreciate you all for continuing to listen over 200 episodes, and I hope you enjoy this milestone episode!

This episode was recorded seemingly forever ago, almost three years to be exact. Now that I've made my way completely through my backlog and had a chance to listen back to this episode that I've held in reserve for so long, it felt like an appropriate time to put it out. I recently published another episode featuring a longtime Indiana falconer, so I figured this would be a good time to publish another! Doug agreed to do this recording while I was still working a travel position in Terre Haute, and after doing some hawking, we sat down to discuss Doug's young start in falconry, what falconry was like in Indiana all those years ago from his perspective, and most importantly, to get some fond memories of Don Garvin, another longtime Indiana falconer who passed in 2022.

Falconers and their opinions... You all have heard that sentiment mentioned many times now on the podcast, and for those of you who have been active falconers longer than five seconds, you know this sentiment all too well! There are some opinions that are more rooted in fact and that are widely agreed upon, but others are up for much more debate. There are always going to be disagreements within the falconry community, as there are in any life endeavor. I have no doubt there will be many who both agree and disagree with some of the thoughts and opinions shared by the guest of this episode, but nevertheless, I appreciate Karl taking the time to come on and spend a couple of hours sharing some pretty crazy hunting stories, some of his changes in his own opinions over the years, and some of his opinions on what he thinks we could or should be doing differently with falconry here in the United States. Whichever side of the fence you're on, I hope that, as always, it may at least get you thinking!

This episode takes us back to Germany once again, this time in the more central part of the country, where Kai Schmid resides. Kai comes on the podcast to talk about his affinity for goshawks and vizslas, and details how he incorporates ferrets in his falconry. He also discusses some of the challenges that Germany faces currently with declining rabbit populations, as well as how avian influenza is affecting falconry there.

Do you remember the feeling you had when you first started hunting? Maybe it was the first time you were able to hunt on your own with no supervision. 

If you were born before social media it was not an event to capture content for likes and shares. More than likely it was not for a payout at a competition coonhunt. 

In this episode Seth and Chris kick off this series of podcasts about what got us hooked on hunting. What is the driving force behind our continuing to hunt. 

For the Love of Hunting.

We're not only back in the US for this episode, but also my home state of Indiana! This episode was recorded at the end of last season at the last Indiana Falconers Assocation meet of the year in Terre Haute. It was requested by other IFA members that I get a conversation recorded with Mike Jones to get his memories of the early formation of the IFA and NAFA, his early days of falconry in the state, and some other good memories.
