Training The Next Generation Of Bear Hunters In West Virginia

Training the Next Generation of Bear Hunters in West Virginia

These guys have been hunting bears with hounds in West Virginia for years. Now, they're bringing along the next generation of bear hunters who'll carry the torch in the future. 

Hunting is quite often a family activity, and bear hunting is no exception. People have been hunting bears with hounds in West Virginia for generations. So, passing that passion and knowledge along to the next generation of bear hunters is imperative.

Well, that's just what these guys did on a very cold morning at the end of bear season. Watch the video below and see what that hunt entailed.

That looked like an exciting hunt those boys won't soon forget.

Even when they go as planned, bear hunts with hounds are an exhilarating and physically demanding experience. I'm really glad to see a hunt come together like this one did, particularly when it involves young hunters. 

Keep up the good work, guys!
