  • Winter Hunting Safety: What I Learned from Falling through the Ice
    Dec 17 2025

    On this episode, I share a story I hope new and beginners can learn from, and that is about being safe while hunting in these winter conditions. On a freezing February night, I decided to go coon hunting in single-digit temperatures, putting myself and my Leopard Dog Bama to the test. Little did I know things would take a turn, and I would leave the woods with a whole new outlook on the importance of:

    1. Letting someone know where you might be hunting
    2. Having additional clothing items with you in case of an emergency, and other helpful equipment
    3. Pay close attention to the weather and signs while out hunting, especially around water
    4. Electronic considerations that can play a part in an emergency
    5. The importance of having a good handle on your dog


    I hope this story can help someone get home safe from a coon hunt, and if nothing else, give some ideas on things to consider when coon hunting or any hunting for that matter in these winter conditions.
