They're everywhere They're everywhere!

Folks only want to kill the big bucks. In most areas the Does really need thinning out.
There are several families in the area that I hunt that really appreciate the meat we give to them, most will take the whole deer, some older folks need you to dress it for them.
We grind up and freeze some mixed with cheap beef roasts for tacos, spaghetti, etc...
And sliced thin and fried with green peppers and onions ain't bad either.

I hunt in VA, you can check deer in on the phone, does are usually ready for the crock pot when I put them in the cooler in the truck. I take a big backpack with all the necesary stuff to dress them on the spot.
I guess you could say we tag em and bag em.

That's why I still hunt back home in VA as opposed to in NC.
I hear that there's some good areas to hunt down east where dogs are still allowed. There ought to be areas around Hampstead that it would be ok?

I know hunting deer with dogs has gotten a bad name over the years. In some cases rightfully so. Our club has a lot of land leased it's mostly all timber company land and the farm land that we do hunt is owned by guys in the club, we don't have too many hassles for the most part, but I'm sure at times we offend other guys in smaller leases near by, and my hounds will run for 12 to 16 hrs so they can get along way from where I turn them out.
I'ts the people that break the laws (mess things up) not the dogs!

Always looking for new places to run the hounds and new friends to meet, have 8 hounds and 2 more little fellas on the way, would like to hunt some open flat country sometime.

Thanks exactly what ive been saying for quite some time! If you dont have the land to turn your dogs out on or can't control your dogs then don't turn them out. I hunt in a club just outside rockymount. We've got 7000 acres and. We'll have to get togheher sometime this season and you are welcome to bring you and your dogs to my club anytime.
