Has anyone know about the process to get dog hunting banned in a NF?

Bruh, them walker dogs don’t know how to read dem posted signs. Chill bruh.

Just give it time, dog hunters will bring on their own end.

Kisatchie NF banned deer dogs a few years ago but MS NF still allow them

Lawsuits were filed against Kisatchie but the court upheld the decision to ban them

Can't even get away from the ANTIs on the OB. Just live and let live. I strictly bow-hunt, anyone know about the process for banning firearm season on National Forest? Any spear hunters want to ban bows on National Forest? Screw Area 51 let's storm the U.S. Forest Service

Yea, pretty sad to see. I’ve hunted my whole life with dog hunting leases all around me and hunted KNF when dogs were allowed. Still kill all kinds of deer. If dogs mess up your hunting I’d suggest take up knitting or kite flying instead.

But the dog hunters in AL have zero respect for the land and animals. They don't own the land (many act like they do) and it kills the experiance for all hunters.

Unfortunately this pertains to all kinds of hunters

Unfortunately, that applies to alot of hunters in Louisiana. Kisatchie is terrible sometimes. I was parked at the end of a forest road during Turkey season a few years ago when a fella in a red pickup comes driving down the road and onto the portion beyond my truck that was closed to vehicle use. Drove right by my truck, and kept on going. Hell, even after I stood up and walked over to him to talk, he still kept going on down a CLOSED ROAD!! Did not care whether he was disrupting my hunt or not.

But, that is just something I've come to expect on public land. Some people are just trash and don't respect others.

technically they do own the public land. In the Homochitto it is common to see dog hunters blocking public roads so they can line them. The fellers doing the blocking have radios so they can give the folks on the road a warning if a warden/cop shows up.

I maintain that responsible dog hunting for deer with a group is a much more enjoyable experience for the new or youth hunter than solitary still hunting.

I’m thankful I grew up with it before deer hunting changed.

I call them slob hunters and they exist for almost every form of hunting.

Dog hunters and the demise of there sport is 100% of their own actions. They love to come to sites and try and battle it out but bottom line the mirror is where they need to start their arguments. I loved the sport growing up and nothing will ever replace the sound of a pack lighting it up. But looking back, as a kid, the elders we hunted with done sketchy things, released dog where the shouldn't have, let them run across properties and push to areas we could hunt, sat on roads, shot out in and off of vehicles and roads, cut fences, went around gate. put ruts on peoples property, etc. It was a free for all western shootout style hunting.
