Dan- Hope ya'll made it back up north ok! It was good getting to talk with you for a few minutes Friday.
We had a good night last night and which defies logic since it's the end of February and the moon was completely full and we got a late start. We'll take it though! We saw 5 coons tonight all on the outside!
On the first drop we turned Swag loose on a coon we saw cross the road about 15 minutes earlier. He ran the track down to river and treed in about 2 minutes. We started to him and he quit treeing when we were about 30 yards from him. We got down there and didn't see him but it was on the edge of a good sized river. We finally saw a few ripples in the river and shortly here he came with the coon in his mouth! I've been hunting now for around 15 years and have owned some nice dogs and that is the very first coon I've ever had a dog catch on the ground!
On the next drop my other dogs got a track going and Swag took it away from them, crossed the river and treed first and had a double. My other dog backed him and he seemed fine with it!
On the last drop, the dogs got deep when we heard them strike. My two old dogs worked a track back towards the truck but Swag snuck off and took it the exact opposite way. About 10 minutes later he fell treed about 300 yards from the other dogs on a small branch He was flat spitting them out and was there to stay! It took us a while to get to him and when we finally did he was on with a big coon in his tree. Here are the pictures:
I don't know what's happened to him in the last 3 weeks or so but it has suddenly all clicked for him. He is fast, loud and a dead loner! No one in the cast will strike their dog on his bark!
Managed to take a video for the double he treed. You can get an idea of his locate when he hits the tree. This was on the double he treed on the second drop-
Saturday night we came home from walker days instead of hunting and took Swag. On the first drop he went 0.8 miles and treed by himself in a huge den. On the second drop he treed in another big den split from the other dogs about 100 yards. He's showing he might have the tools to make a nice one.
