treed another one today, only bout 180# seen it three different times, and never did get a pic of it. seen it cross the road, didn't have time to take pic., got to tree, and as i was getting my camera it bailed out, and the last time was when i was catching the dogs off of it 5 hrs later, i ran out the road and got above it, it was so tired that it didn't even notice me. it walked right up to me, i backed up out of sight so it would come on up into road so i could catch the dogs. never even thought to take pic then. lol

got on a mean one sat. got my 10 month old onyx x hayze pup bit in the front leg and hip and got my moon female with possible broke ribs, and my jewel female with claw marks in the hip. onyx pup is doing great, that is twice she has been caught, but still keeps going back for more. but will be out of the race til her leg heals, moon too. bear wouldnt tree, just walked around for hours, stopping every so often and catching dogs. let the dogs heal and rest for a few days, going to hit it again in the morning.
safe hunting to all.
