Good night, last night!
We finally got a break in the weather and I found some time to drop ole Buzz again. Me and Tim took Tim's dog Hank and his new Female out of Hillbilly Dutch, and Buzz out for a few drops last night. We dropped Hank first, and he got in there about 600 yards and got one up in big old Maple tree full of grapevines. Then we changed spots and dropped Buzz out this ridge where we had been seeing a lot of coon feeding on grapes. Before I got Buzz loose he was winding and opened on the lead so I cut him loose. He pulled up over the ridge and struck going down the other side and drove a track a couple hundred yards down the other side then blew up on a tree. He had 3 up that one and we saw one big coon under a brush thicket while we were going in to him. Then we went back to the truck and got Tim's little female "Sis". We cut her loose where we were going to cut Buzz and she struck one and pulled around the hill and treed on a big ole tree just full of grapevines. She had that one as well. It was a good night so we decided to call it quits. On a side note, we have been taking a little 11 year old girl, "Haley" with us and she is hooked on coon hunting, hook, line and sinker! Haley is the daughter of Tim's girlfriend, Stacy. We started taking her out last year and I kind of figured she would burn out quick, so a year later and about $500 worth of equipment, she still loves it. Tim said he is going to let her run Sis in the youth hunts this spring. Please take a kid hunting, you won't be sorry. Happy hunting and a Happy Thanksgiving to all.
