I am new here and thought I'd post a few things.
First of all, even though I am 40 years old, I am greener than green when it comes to pheasant hunting.
I like to hunt but just have the worst luck ever.
Anyways... what drove me here was a letter written to our local newpaper about a gentleman who was in town due to the death of one of his parents. While here he went hunting with his dog and his dog will killed by a coon trap.
I have no idea what a coon trap is, meaning I've never seen one, I've seen other traps.
That said, now I am fearful of taking my dog out. I usually only hunt public posted land and never walk ditches, etc.
Just looking for thoughts on this, how can one be cautious to make sure our dogs are safe as they can be.
Thanks~
