Superman
Hi,
Jeff and I rearranged the Sid and Sister puppy pen Friday night. We went hunting about midnight like always. We took Superman.
Went to a woods and turned him loose. True to form, Superman hunted into the wind. Superman worked a bad track and treed in a huge den tree.
We pulled him off and went further down the branch. Superman struck and ran a track about half a mile and treed it in a doze pile. Sometimes he will stay in a doze pile and sometimes he locates and comes back.
Tonight, he came back. Trotted by us never stopping and continued down the branch. He opened, about 5 minutes later he opened again, about 7 minutes later he opened again. He just kept working that terrible track down the branch, opening every 5-7 minutes. After about 30 minutes, Superman came out with that scream,"come get me". I was froze. I had not put on enuff clothes. Jeff went on to the tree. Mr Coon was there in a fork. Safe and sound. Superman reminded me so much of a little hound who could run those terrible tracks and tree the biggest boar coons you ever saw, 41 years ago. If Janie opened, sit down, she was going to tree that track and you would see the biggest coons you had ever seen. Gr Ch Starke's Finley River Jane was death to a coon. She was one of the coldest nosed hounds I have ever followed. She didn't stand on her head. She moved that track, no lose, tree the coon every time... no matter how cold, no matter how moonlight, no matter if it was frosty, frozen ground, or snowing. She is where my hounds of today get their nose and brains to tree those terrible tracks and have the coon... not a blank tree.
Janie was a daughter of Nt Ch Gr Ch Jackson's Finley River Tom and Gr Ch Bennett Springs Sugar. Tom was the son of Dual Gr Ch Finley Dan 3 and a GR NT Ch Finley River Joe female. She was also a Gr Nt Ch, her name was Candy. Sugar was a littermate to Gr Nt Ch Bennett Springs Bandit and Dual Gr Ch Finley River Banjo. Bandit was owned by Bud Pantry and finished 4th in the UKC World Hunt. Finley River Banjo was Hall of Fame. Sugar's daddy was Gr Nt Ch Gr Ch Finley River Sonny. Sonny's daddy was Gr Nt Ch Finley River Dan. Sugar's mother was Gr Ch Mears Banjo Babe.
When I bred Janie to my Dancer, Trap was born. Dancer was a son of Dual Gr Ch Finley River Dan 3. I line bred all my dogs back to Trap, which linebred them to Janie and Dancer. Janie died that winter after I sold Trap. I would have never sold Trap, if I knew her mother was going to die. Trap was treeing squirrels and staying til I got there. She was so little, I had to pick her up and carry her home.
Good Hunting,
Robert
