Provide training opportunities for deer hounds.
Suggestions have been made to:
a. Provide a training season for deer hounds on private land with permission
b. Provide a training season for deer hounds at a time when it avoids conflict with other hunting seasons
c. Provide deer hound training where deer dog hunting for deer is currently allowed.
d. create a legal chase/training season for deer hounds
e. create a chase/training season for deer hounds to include July, August, September and the period from the first day of firearms deer season through March 31
f. a deer chase season would be great, but not at the expense of other hunters and their chase seasons
