I grew up running dogs in south MS. Never shot a deer while running dogs but the group I hunted with did. It was lots of fun. Never a dull moment. Now, it was hard keeping the dogs from getting away but they never would get too far.

The woods down there were a LOT different than where I hunt now. Nothing ever died from winter and you might get a 50-60 yard shot. I wouldn't mind nd doing it again sometime.
