Thanks for the link to the song. If I lived over there I think I'd be interested in that. I love hearing hounds on a trail.

I owned Coonhounds before I owned Bird Dogs. I hunt rabbits with my Cousins Beagle pack and coons with Friends hounds each season. Have done some lion and bear hunting with Friends out west packs and some bobcat hunting with my GWPs.
Years ago I traveled with a Friend to visit his relatives in extremely rural Texarkana country. All his male relatives hunted deer with hounds and we went out to visit their deer camp and look at their dogs. I am sure I would enjoy taking a hunt of that style once in awhile as I like variety and dogs that hunt. It is highly similar to beagles circling a rabbit, just that the whitetails run in a bigger loop.
But I also worked towards my life goal of living on my own farm and do so now. I work year round to make it as wildlife friendly as possible. Bowhunting Whitetails and Turkeys are two of my many hunting passions.
Meanwhile my neighbor's "coyote" hounds circle deer in my timber 4-5 days a week through the summer when they are allowed to run loose 24/7.
Each of those same days, I am exercising and training my GWPs taking proper precautions to ensure they are only on properties where we have permission to be on. My dogs never run loose unsupervised as any and all dogs which do will harass wildlife when doing so.
I think it is unreasonable for anyone to expect their neighboring landowners to accept dogs running game on their property without permission to do so, especially on a recurring basis. I have a foot in both worlds and understand the issue very well on both sides.

Loved that " music". 
My Dad and I bred beagles for 20 + years. Still love that sound.
