Readers of hound hunting books like Life of the Greatest Guide, Slash Ranch Hounds or Meet Mr. Grizzly, by McCurdy, Evans or Stevens respectively have, no doubt, yearned to experience the thrill of hunting mountain lions and bears on horseback in the old West. Our guest in this episode, Chris Todd of Kingman, Arizona doesn’t have to live the lifestyle of the western lion hunter vicariously through the printed page. He literally lives it every day.
Todd, who once hunted lions for ninety days out of ninety-two operates a guide service in which hunters experience a seven-day horse-mounted, hound-enhanced, classic mountain lion hunt just like those taken by Dale Lee, Dub Evans or Montague Stevens. In this episode, Chris and Steve interview Todd on several aspects of lion hunting in Arizona. The discussions range from profiling the successful lion hound to breeding, training, and conditioning the hound for rigorous terrain. The hosts drill down into the origins of the guest’s successful pack and uncover some popular names in hound breeding.
Todd knows lions and lion hounds and the hosts pick his brain on many aspects of the sport of hunting the most elusive of quarry in this interesting episode. Chris Todd is the authentic article and his warm personality and storehouse of knowledge about dry ground lion hunting will entertain and inspire listeners to head out west to hunt lions with hounds in the company of a master lion hunter. This episode will rank high on the reader's enjoyability scale.
