Appalachian Hound Hunting w/ Roy Clark Part 1

Roy Clark, now 71, was born in East Tennessee and has been bear hunting with hounds his whole life. “My grandpa and daddy, when they started out hunting, I’d get to go with them to the 12-Mile Strip. We didn’t have anything but a log truck, camping gear and dogs. We’d walk from there – no radios or nothing. It was tough to find bears that way.” Roy has gone from primitive hunting with hounds all the way to using modern GPS collars, which have changed the game. Bear numbers are as high as they've ever been in modern times, and hound is different than 50 years ago. Roy, as a houndsman, is a living legend and you're certain to enjoy this look into Appalachian Mountain hunting culture with the Laurel Mountain Bear hunters.  Bear Hunting Magazine is Powered by SimplecastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
