How tall of boots should I have? I saw some like 26 inch boots that look super tall that are meant for coon hunting, are those really necessary? And if I go to a hunt how does it work? Can I walk with one of the hunters and help me out? Once I get a dog can I run with a real experienced guy a little bit?
Hunts... MOH is the Master of Hounds also sometimes a Hunt Director is in charge talk to them when you get there or call the club contact before hand. You would be a spectator on a cast. A cast is a group of 4 or less dogs and their "handler" hunting together and competing against each other. There are rules regarding spectators you would need to read so that you don't interfere with the cast. You would not actually participate just walk along watch, listen and only shine trees when given permission, don't handle the dogs ect, mainly just see that your presence there does not cause you to interfere in anyway. Clubs are excellent places to meet other hunters you may find someone there that you could occasionally pleasure hunt with to learn from.
Boots, what is your terrain like? My brother-in-law is the only person I know that hunts in tennis shoes and shorts but he is crazy, there is a lady up north that hunts barefoot lol. So boots are not a necessity but do make the terrain and water much more tolerable. Most wear a rubber boot that has a chap attached. Bekinas with Badlands chaps the favorite here. Everyone has their own preference Mucks, Dan's, Quatros the list is long of different ones available but nearly all wear with the attached chaps the are briar proof, water proof and some are snake proof. Chaps are glued and attached around the ankle of a boot that is typically a regular just below the knee boot. The chap is like a sleeve that goes from ankle to thigh with snaps you hook through your belt loops.
There are some reputable dealers we could send you numbers some post on here.
