Fox Hunting?

Has anyone here ever fox hunted? I was wondering how much fox hunting goes on anymore. The area where I live there is really no place to fox hunt. So many people have moved to the country so there are houses everywhere and very little open space land.

My great-grandfather and my uncles were avid fox hunters. They never went coon hunting. Fox hunting was their sport. They took my father some when he was a kid, but when he grew up he got into coon hunting because that was the more popular sport in Texas.

My father remembers my uncles having a subscription to The Hunter's Horn, the great fox hunting magazine. While he has no interest in getting into fox hunting, he said he would like to get that magazine just to see what is going on in the world of fox hunting today. I looked online and cannot find where a subscription could be ordered. Does anyone know if The Hunter's Horn is still published?

Thanks!!

Hey thanks guys!! No wonder I couldn't find it. I didn't know it was on the American Cooner site. If I order now it would make a great Father's Day gift for him.

We are going tonight with a pack of hounds. They run fox and yotes. Should be a good time, most of the guys are a lot more laid back than most coon hunters.

Is fox hunting always in packs? I've never been around fox hunting. My great-grandfather was dead, and my uncles were in their elder years and were not still huting by the time I was born. My father said he thinks they always hunted in packs rather than with a single dog. I know coon hunting can be done in packs or a single dog, and that the competition hunts each hunter hunts one dog.

Sorry for the "stupid" questions. I don't know much about fox hunting, but it seems like fun.

Ya they turn loose packs. Sometimes a couple hundred at a field trial event. We are hunting somewhere between 6 and 12 dogs tonight. It is just exercise for them and relaxation for us.

I lived to foxhunt when I was a kid. We turned loose 2 or 3 dogs and they hunted to kill. My Dad went to SouthEastern Kentucky about every year and brought back foxhounds for his buddies. Those days are gone forever, too many houses and city slickers in the country to cover that much ground in broad daylite today.

Never ask a man what kind of dog he has. If he has a hound he'll tell you, if he does not, you don't want to shame him by asking.

Yes and No!

I have not... since I broke my back in a riding accident the season I was to hunt... and chickened out after that. and Bob has alot... All on horseback. The Tanheath hunt club, where his stepfather was a Master of Hounds for a bit. They actually housed the Tanheath hounds way back when... They now use Penn-Marydel hounds... who seem to have real nice voices. They still hunt in the land right across fomr our current house here in Wrentham, MA and we sit outside to listen...and I have to keep my bluedawg inside since he confuses the houndmen... THey chase the foxes and some yotes that live over there on a farm. We have VERY little land left to hunt in any form... and SO many anit-hunters in MA I love the fact that I bought a house directly across from our old huntclubs hunting grounds... they hunt in CT I think too and somewhere else? I forget....
I actually met Bob at Horse camp in 1973, when i was 13 and he was 10. He was a country bumkin, me a city girl. At camp they foxhunted and....had COONHOUNDS! That was where I first got into this addiction... AND... where Bob was introduced to it too.
the local club doesn't kill the foxes since we are not over populated but they still have some good fun. We will actually be killing one of those foxes soon if it returns to our farm.... it killed five of our chickens yesterday... it wasn't pretty. The day before I had to chase it away with a shovel handle... not very normal fox behavior...
Sorry I got to babbling... that IS my nature! LOL...
Oh Yeah... LOVED Hunting horn and some old coonhunting mag. they used to get at camp... GREAT old hounds!
Hope you find LOTS of wonderful info and pix!! LOTS OF PIX! HappyHunting Heather and Bob too

I concur rmcmillan. We don't need to lose anymore traditions. George Washington, our first president, was an avid fox hunter. It is a tradition we brought over from England. Sometimes I feel like America is slipping away, like it's not even America anymore. I'm only 30 years old, but even I can see that in so many ways this America isn't the same one I grew up in. There have been many positive changes, but we need to hang on to our traditions, the things that made us great. I want MY America to stay intact and prosper. It seems like that some of our leadership in Washington now looks down on good, old-fashioned mainstream American values. Those are the values that get stomped on all the time while we are made to bend over backwards for everyone else. Oh well, I could go on forever.

I fox hunted with my Father, and Grand Father, and some of their friends up till I was about 16, which would have been around 1971. Gramps passed on, several of the old friends died as well, and my dad & I switched to coon hunting. We would meet two times per week and hunt between six and twenty dogs depending upon how many hunters showed up on a particular night. Tuesdays and Saturdays would be the regular nights to run. Each hunter would usually bring two or three hounds each. I only had the good fortune of hearing one fox chase that continued all night and up to 8:00 the next morning before the fox finally holed. Thank Goodness my little female named Tilly was still on the front end putting pressure on that ole fox when the hounds came by us after daylight. That was sooo cool. Especially since Grandpa's dog had quit about an hour before daylight and had come in and laid down beside us. Grandpa sure was proud of my little Tilly female after that. Grandpa was around 82 years of age in 1971 and the stories he told about himself as a young man absolutely facinated me. Some of my fondest childhood memories!!

Fox Hunting

is the sport that started it all for me. People like MR.Percy Flowers, Mr. Weaver Meggs, Mr. George Stanback, Mr. J.C. Rorie were all well known fox hunters and had the hounds of the day in the 1950's I knew these people by being a knee high fox hunter with my Granddad and dad. I wish I could go back to that time for awhile or maybe forever.

here in maine the coyote has replaced the fox because its such a threat to the deer herd people dont keep chickens like they used to . theres lots of empty chicken farms with big metal barns that are landmarks of the past. i do know some guys downeast maine that at the end of winter when they thin the coyotes down will go run a fox with one dog that excells on them. but they prefer to run coyote. the deer are coming back in their area despite the anti hunting propaganda and the coyotes are fewer .

OLD SOUTHERN SPORT

This is a fun post. Growing up in the Blue Ridge Mt. of Virginia, fox huntin and coon huntin are a way of life here. My Dad and the Veternarin were big fox huntin buddies when I was a kid in the early 80s. I used to love to go and hear the hounds run, [ what a pretty sound with 15 or 20 hounds ] but it never was about killing the fox, it was just about the hound music. There are not many fox hunters left around here any more , it seems to be diein out , due to lack of land to turn that many hounds loose on [15 to 20 or more ] its also getting to be a problem to find enough land to turn my coon hounds loose on. We live in a very rural part of the state but in the last few years we have had a lot of city people from big citys up north move in and buy large tracts of land and now its getting harder to find a place to hunt. They just dont understand how much huntin [ and hound huntin ] are a part of our culture around here. I would hate to see hound huntin, fox or coon, bear or rabbit, go extinct around here. People just dont realize when you hunt with a hound its not about killin game, its all about the HOUNDS!!

We ran them last night til early morning. At times we had as many as 18 hounds on the ground at once. We had three different races throughout the night. It was nice to relax and listen to a pack of hounds make music. I remember when I used to feel the same about coon hunting. Unfortunately coon hunting just isn't about that anymore. I think I have found my new hobby!

I remember my Dad telling about a letter that a man from Ky. sent to Mr. J.C. Rorie wanting to come back down to Union Co. in N.C.. Said he wanted to run that red fox again, that he felt sure if he would leave his old dogs and sore footed pups at home he would have that fox in the ground by sunup. Mr. J.C. sent a letter and told the man from Ky. that the red fox he wanted to run in didnt have but one hole he was carrying it.--------------It was years later before I knew what Mr. J.C. was talking about.

Here is SE Ohio the sport of fox hunting was about having a fox that would try to run the hounds into exhaustion. It was considered a cardinal sin to have killed a red fox as they make a better race than a grey fox. I remember when I was about 8 years old my Grandpa telling me a story that took place somewhere between 1915 and 1925 as Grandpa was still a young man. He told this story of a good running fox that was in the area and some guy needing the money killed the fox for the fur price. One of the local fox hunters found out that this man that gramps knew had killed this fox. The man that killed the fox was riding his horse to a family gettogether and was shot off his horse while in route to the family gathering. Gramps told me the only thing that saved this guys life was that he was wearing a heavy winter coat and most of the buckshot remained lodged in this coat.

Free cast Fox hunting here in SE Ohio ended arounded 1970 for the most part. there is one fox/yote pen in the area that hunters come for hundreds of miles to run in but I can tell you that running in a pen is nothing like running in the wide open range.

I have really enjoyed this post as well
