The American Beagler Forum

What is the best rabbit hunting magazine? The Rabbit Hunter, The American Beagler, or Better Beagler. If I have missed any let me know. I would like to subscibe to the best one. What does everyone get?

i get TRH AND TAB.
I like them both .
i would go with the one that supports your format the most.

It depends on which format, region and registry you compete in. I like Better Beagling because it covers the style of hounds I run, in the area I run, in AKC which I run. I also get Hounds and Hunting because some of the clubs I participate in trials at advertise there and it has good articles.

1. Better Beagling-Fits the formats I like the most Large Pack and faster SPO, Ralph and his wife have made nice improvements.
2. The American Beagler - Nice magazine, some well written articles, how you can keep up with UKC guys.
3. The Rabbit Hunter- I used to get it for years and years, was one of my favorites but that was back when Rev. Parks and George Blaine contributed a lot. NKC/ARHA based, I ordered it a couple years ago and let it expire.
4. Hounds and Hunting- I used to get it back when I ran Spike stuff, was half Brace and half (approx.) SPO. I don't even know if it's published anymore.

Hounds and hunting is still published, in fact its the oldest beagling, trial magazine in the usa. It covers mostly, spo type dogs, the ubgf and the different organizations in them. It also covers some brace (walky talky) stuff but lately, meaning last few months not much of that. It has new ownership and there is alot more hunting stories in it which i love since ive been writing for them also. I also write for the rabbit hunter magazine and have for around 15 years. Its not like it was back when Everett morgan had it but still has alot of stories in it and coverage of the arha trials and results. I can only attest for these 2 magazines as they are the ones i receive.

Look for Plum Creek Kennel Supply in next months issue of Hounds and Hunting. Thanks!

I will tell ya Jon's articles were always good reads,if HH has changed I may take a look again.

Thanks Norshore, i appreciate it.

I used to get better beagling but it was full of field trials in the northeast. I live in so IL. Just recieved a sample issue of the rabbit hunter, it seems pretty good for what I have read so far.

I like them all. Rabbit hunter is my fav at the moment. Thats just cause i made the cover of the august issue.
