Gone To The Dogs with Mark Miller
Episode 160
Monday, 11 November, 2024
What happens when an active raccoon and bear-hunting houndsman is faced with a debilitating injury at the onset of hunting season? Does he become discouraged to the point of giving up or does he purpose to overcome adversity and forge into the future with a firm resolve? The subject of our episode this week personifies the latter. Mark Miller of Taylorsville, North Carolina is a houndsman in the prime of life, a guy that approaches hound hunting like a rookie fireman on his first five-alarm run. His determination to take a green pup all the way to the Quadruple Grand level in the coonhound game is evidence of just how hard he goes at it. Unfortunately, Miller finds himself dealing lately with a severe back injury that so far is devoid of a clear long-term prognosis, a situation that would get a lesser man down.Steve and Mark spend the duration of the podcast talking about Mark’s personal battle, about the hound that the two friends co-own and finally, about a new prospect that Steve hopes will follow in his sire’s footsteps. Despite the variety of subjects at hand, some with a serious degree of uncertainty, the friends manage to see light at the end of the tunnel in the upcoming Grand American and American Plott Association upcoming at the first of the year. It’s an hour of the “dog talk at its finest” you’ve come to expect in this spot each week. Enjoy.
