Rabbit Hunting In Alabama Swamp | Benson's Kennel

Benson's Kennel is located in Alabama. We breed & train beagles (rabbit hunt) & mountain curs (squirrel hunt) that have smarts, honest mouths, drive, speed, and excellent handle. We utilize a consistent breeding and training program to produce some of the best hounds in the USA.

All the men I knew that had beagles for hunting has passed away. This really brings back good childhood memories. Fried rabbit with 50 weight gravy and smothered potatoes

[@derrickanderson6989]

Woowee... You Guys took me back about 40 years , I really miss those times.. Family N Fun

[@ashtonlott844]

The way you call your dogs Mr. Benson is amazing.

[@MatindianGirl06]

Good morning. Thank you for sharing this video. I've never seen African Americans hunting, whether it's rabbits, turkeys, deer or feral hogs, this has made my day. My father used to hunt for rabbits in Georgia many years ago, but that by word of mouth, but this is ACTUALLY seeing it. Once again, thank you. Take care, looking forward to more videos.

[@metaspencer]

It's cool to see y'all out there doing it and your technique. Super interesting and well filmed. Thanks for the video!

[@josephcuratolo5606]

Years ago i had to go into a river covered with ice to retrieve the my hound. She was going under the ice it was a long walk home. Your beagle has some heart crassing thet river. Great video

[@CCRider5312]

Awesome! I love it! We need more black men to get into hunting & upholding their 2nd Amendment Rights! Cool Man 😎 Yall keep on doing what ya doing bro!!! 👍👍

[@tonioyendis4464]

CC Rider - you would be surprised that many Black folks hunt and always have.

[@grapas100]

CC Rider - Black people have been hunting for as long as there have been black people. How do you think we survived back in the day?

[@CCRider5312]

@Tonio Yendis & @grapas100..... Listen dont get a attitude with me. I know blacks have been hunting since their beginning of existence. You two talk to me like U think im a stupid guy who knows nothing of hunting. I been hunting my whole life, i go to hunts all over, hunt public & private land. I go to the Dixie Deer & Hunting Classics in the south every single year. In case U dont know what that is: Its the largest Hunters show on the southeast coast of the USA. And occasionally you might see a few black guys there but they're far & few between! I once hunted a Dog hunting club in Person County NC America which had several thousand acres & we had 100+ members & some one day guests of the members. Only 4 members of our 100+ members was black guys. And to make it clear to U its not because we didnt ask black people to join! I ask my black guy buddies fellow club members why they didn't have more friends & family to join & come hunt on our club? The mens response to me is there's just not many blacks that's interested in hunting. So to clearify my response to Mr Benson with all due respect was its nice to see my fellow American black men hunting! I also said we need more black men hunting. So dont try & make comments to make me sound like i meant my comment any other way than i said it! Look listen up when i said what i said I was speaking to a fellow American & i don't give a crap about the color of a mans skin. I dont judge a man by that, I judge him by his character! Ive got several black friends i consider more loyal than alot of my white friends. So i dont understand why U got ur pantys in a twist about my comment? Im not talking to a group of men and (ammending them 👍) about them hunting when the statistics are very clear that there really is a small number of black men that hunt in The U.S. So im not Amending them for someone to come along & make crappy comments to make it look like i didn't know what i was talking about !!! I never said one word to Mr Benson about his ancestories ability to know how to hunt. What my comment was aiming at is We need more Black men along side whites huntin in America. Because the liberal politicians are constantly trying to attack our 2nd Amendment rights. More black men & Black women hunting along side their fellow white brothers & sisters will make it easier to fight to keep our God Given Right of our 2nd Amendment Alive & Well. THERE IS STRENGTH IN NUMBERS! So in closing: i don't think Mr Benson took any offense whatsoever to my comment. Real men are above petty stuff like that.

[@tonioyendis4464]

CC Rider - uhhh, chill-out dude! We just commented on your statement. Nobody has any attitude or was talking down to you. Sounds like you're the one with a short fuse and your draws up ur azz! You wrote a damn book over nothing.

[@1992shakey]

@@tonioyendis4464 * you are wright . My father and older brothers use to take me hunting for rabbit squril deer quail when I was about 9 years old. Iam in my 70s and still love it .my father also made hare gum (rabbit trap) . Fishing traps too.

[@willblass73]

Ive never seen dogs used to run rabbits. Here in South Texas, we hunt late afternoon. I find them close to senderos on the shade side of the bushes. In most cases, they won't move, unless they think you've seen them. My dad taught me, if you see one up close, dont look at them directly. Rather, keep them in your peripherals and move the gun in their direction and then take aim. I've killed more cottontails less than 10 yards from me. Walking slow and quietly, I walk up on them and they just freeze long enough to get a shot. Awesome video!

[@tonynapoli5549]

Love the sound of Beagles Good days hunting nice video Thanks for sharing 👍👌👋🇬🇧

[@nickmurray1684]

I low key forgot about your channel, but I’m back . I love watching dogs work

[@randyking191]

Enjoyed the video, brings back good memories of past hunts and makes me want to go again. Beautiful habitat for rabbits and loved hearing the dogs! Good times for sure!

[@bigsexysaquariums6780]

What a great tradition! Dogs going off!

[@gregorywilson7568]

I'm an older hunter at 68 years. My first rabbit was with a single barrel 20 ga. at the age of 9 and hunted every year since. The transition from a young boy hunting with my father and uncles' friends to hunting with my buddies and our sons and nephews taught me that the fellowship of the hunt, talking trash and hearing such outstanding dogs work is more than equal to the fine table fare for that Sunday dinner. Great job and video guys. Keep it going.

[@reicho114268]

I really enjoyed watching you all get u'r hunt on, can't wait to see more!!!! 💯💪🏿🤴🏿👏🏿👊🏿🎯

[@bensonskennel]

Appreciate! it! Stay tuned!

[@whood338]

Awesome video brother, I love the way you guys joke around with each other while hunting. You guys and your awesome hunting beagles not only put and smile on my face, but brought me joy of seeing a great hunt. I love hearing your beagles singing, which is music to my ears.....you guys can sing yourselves when getting them beagle winded up to hunt 😁😁. Great video brother, please keep them coming 🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕👍👍👍👍👍👍👍.
