  • A father-and-son adventure in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas using a mule to raccoon hunt with hounds. Swollen creeks, big rocks, and jumping logs, this video has a lot heart. Using hounds to tree coons is culturally iconic method for gathering fur and controlling turkey nest predators. Check out this short film from Bear Hunting Magazine. www.bear-hunting.com

    Riding into town on your mule to pick up your archery target, shooting off the mules back, and now you're riding in the dark. I'm going to have to say your mule is getting exposed to a lot of things.

    Stainless 10/22? Gosh, Billy had to use an axe🤣. I think Billy would be very happy with the way your doing things. That's some real special father/son time, it'll go a long way with him. Great video!

    Excellent video and a very interesting topic. However the man talks too much. It should be more conversation and less lecture. Please let the boy talk, ask questions, say something, whatever.

    I just finished all your videos. I heard about you on the meat eater podcast and have been addicted ever since. I didn't watch them all in order but have finished them all. The Vlogs are my favorite but I think you quit making them. Hopefully they will come back. I love watching when you have the kids with you. I have 3 young kiddos myself and you are a true inspiration to father's. Also how you share your faith. Please keep up the great work making videos. I have bear hunting the past 4 seasons without any luck here in Kentucky. Our season is usually very short. You have to call daily to see if the limits we're met. I'm hoping to get out your way one day soon for a hunt. Thanks again and God bless
    I think the mule training series was my favorite!
