Hound Dog Network - Gone To The Dogs with Mack Britt Mar 10, 2025

Show notes

Steve invites his Florida coon hunting buddy Mack Britt to join him for a conversation about Mack’s current project, a Walker male named Clutch. The banter centers on Clutch’s progression from being a lightly-started rookie of eighteen months to his current status as Mack’s nightly choice for coon hunting in Florida’s always challenging terrain and atmospheric conditions.

The value in this podcast lies in the information and encouragement it provides to hunters that may be on the verge of giving up on a hound that isn’t progressing up to expectations. Clutch’s story will illustrate that each dog is different, that they progress at their individual rate, depending upon the opportunities they are given and that even the most unlikely candidate can blossom into a hound the hunter will appreciate and enjoy in time.

Britt last appeared on Gone To The Dogs a year ago and the guys have a lot to catch up on. This is a podcast for coon hunters that are determined to press on despite the adversities of age, adverse hunting conditions and dog-related problems. You’ll find this one entertaining and inspirational. It could be described as the light at the end of the tunnel. Enjoy.
