What an amazing day of hunting all thanks to Palmers Guided HUNTS. watching these amazing dogs track a bear for over 5 miles before it treed was unbelievable. Then the hike in a mile to the bear was treed began. Even after the long walk out with the bear the excitement didn’t stop. As we found a few partridge and amazing views every place you looked.if you’ve ever thought about hunting over dog don’t wait you will not be disappointed.
