Any Missouri/Arkansas houndsmen?

[Pagosa]

Just wondering if anyone on the forum runs hounds for raccoon, bobcat, or bear in either area? We used to hunt the Boston Mountains about 20 years ago, and didn’t know if many houndsmen were still hunting those mountains or not. Just curious how the hunting was, since I’m planning to visit my mother near the OKLAHOMA border, and was considering hunting a early morning or late night over there. Thanks Preston

We currently do not have a bear season, if it can ever get past public comment I seriously doubt hounds will be allowed due to the influences of STL & KC. I know a few who run hounds for raccoons but they're over on the western border close to Kansas.

Thanks for the information. It mostly a dying sport, and a costly one.
