FEBRUARY 28, 1999_- Jimmy's last day of rabbit hunting with his prized beagle dogs: George Jones, Little "Tater" Jimmie Dickens, Eddie Stubbs, Minnie Pearl, Marty Stuart and Shorty._Pictured from left: Jimmy, Earl Tillery, Anthony, Tommy Scruggs, and Ray Martin with their 25 rabbits.A NOTE ABOUT THIS PHOTO:_"A few nights ago we had a pleaseant surprise as Dwight Dillman brought Jimmy Martin to our house for a visit. I'm pleased to report that Jimmy is in good health once again. Jimmy let out two big yodels for me before he walked out the door! That night after they left, he and Derek picked until 2:00 in the morning!! Dwight and his family said they felt honored to have Jimmy as a guest in their home near Peru, IN.___Jimmy has been doing a lot of hunting this winter from October through February. His last rabbit hunt was on February 28,1999, and Jimmy said he has now ended his rabbit hunting for this season. Jimmy was recently in Indiana hunting with Russ Bellar, the #1 coon hunter in the world. Russ was very nice to Jimmy and gave him a #1 rated squirrel dog, which he now calls Minnie Pearl.___Jimmy is now back on the road traveling in his big red Bean Blossom tour bus. He is looking forward to another great season of music and to seeing all his friends at Bean Blossom on the 19th of June. Be there for a 30 year reunion with Jimmy, Doyle Lawson and some of the former Sunny Mountain Boys."_unknown source

ol jimmy was a houndsman for sure , always named his dogs after other famous singers . he was a true gift of life for sure , and deserved the title as " the king of bluegrass " I play bluegrass as well and my all time favorite is jimmy martin and the sunny mountain boys , always play a jimmy tune or two when pickin . theres a youtube video of jimmy coonhuntin with his walker dogs that's pretty cool .

I got to meet Jimmy several times at Bean Blossom, I asked him if he still coon hunted and he said yes he did, asked him what kind of dogs he had and he said " Walkers, are there any other kind "........
He was a good man, I have the privilege of coon hunting on Dwight Dillmans farm, we buy furniture and what off him and his son Derek from their furniture stores, they too are god people.......Dwight's dad, Myron just past away a few weeks ago,
They all love that Bluegrass.
