Where i grouse hunt in Maine the bear season for hounds is open in Oct. and when a hunt is heard we will follow it at a distance to listen to it and we have returned a few lost hounds to the guides. I have no desire to kill a bear but love the hunt.

We’re on the same page concerning Rutledge and using a Parker for deer the way they used to do it . I went so far as to talk to Rick Hemingway about doing just such a hunt at his place since it isn’t to far from Rutledge’s old stomping grounds .
