Video above from few nights ago 1 of 3 raccoon treed by Rat
Did not hunt lastnite But will be tonight ! Rat & I are going it alone this yr / tried to get a hound to hunt but I am thinking everybody thought $1000.00 for 60hrs of hunting to much well I don't think so cost to just take a hound hunting use up half that $$$ / Rat is enjoying all by himself
