Well dog gone it! I was all pumped up about taking Mann to the RQE in Marshall Saturday night! I got home from the Friday night hunt in Marshall and decided to take Mann for a drop. He did a bang up job on the first drop, had two Ricky's in a huge oak out in the middle of a pasture...pretty cool setting! However I got to watching Mann and noticed he was favoring a paw. After further inspection he had ripped a nail completly off back to the edge of his paw, only the quick(SP?) showing "ouch"! Now I am sure Mann wouldn't have let the injury slow him down, but I didn't see any need to make him either. So I stayed home and took my two boys fishing in our pond I hope the club had enough guides, as I felt bad about not attending. But when your boys are begging to go fishing what does a daddy tell them!
Had a good hunt Friday night entering my Witch female in her first hunt. We ended up scoring 400+ /125-. I lost it for her, the three hounds were having a rough time on a track and they came down on a tree that I thought she was going to stick. I was trying to play a little catch up and just flat pulled the tree trigger to fast. They ended up treeing a coon on that turn out, Witch had a first and first which would have given her 525+ to finsh 25 ahead of Terry Payne's blue male, Rat. But Terry did the right thing in keeping his mouth shut and was able to walk away with another first on his male...good job!
