    Trained By A Hound Dog with Ed Vance

    Trained By A Hound Dog with Ed Vance

    "Born into every generation are restless men with feet that will not stand still, eyes that search for distant mountains, hearts that long to go where the scene is new and the promise of adventure is alive."                                                                                                                                                                                             - George Laycock

    There's no better way to describe Ed Vance, our guest on this week's re-release podcast.  

    Clay visited Ed at his home in the Greenhorn Mountains of Southern California to discuss his inability to stand still as the mountains called him with the promise of bear and lion. Ed has spent a lifetime following hounds and learning about life. They also talk about Ed's book, "Trained by a Hound Dog."  

    This goes down as one of our favorite podcasts of all time.

Great information on bear hunting for a car ride

This is my favorite podcast. I live in Western Pennsylvania and just got into bowhunting. Great information on the various methods to hunt bears depending on state regulations (spot&stalk, bait, hounds), what types of habitat to look for bears, bear sign, what bears eat, shot placement, fall hunting, spring hunting, information on Canadian bear hunting.

This also got me to subscribe to their magazine which is very well done.

Clay Newcomb also converted me in pronouncing a bear’s favorite food, Akern.

Trained by a hound dog

Just listened to this episode. Who among us that is a dog person hasn’t been trained by their dog. It’s a symbiotic relationship between man and beast. This was a classic story and remarkable person. Thanks!

Filled with passion

I started listening to this podcast as needing more MeatEater type content. Clay sees things differently. Every part of his hunt and hunt preparation is seemingly as important and part of the success of the hunt. It covers way more than just bear hunting but also importance of food, friends, and especially family and family values. Need more people like this representing us hunters.
