O 2 is my Buddy and I like him but if I had to tree a coon tonight and pick one, I would have to put our Friendship a side and O Stepper would get the job.

Bomboy
Hey Bob I went hunting about 8:30 last nite, took my new female I bought out of Teaxas, she is 20 months old and the great great granddaughter of Scout. I also took Ole Bomboy. Treed two, ran for an hour, Bomboy treed both on the outside. Got up this morning. He ran one for about amile and treed on a den tree but the coon was on the outside.
can make them climb before they are ready. He reminds me of those 2 females of mine. turn them 3 loose and mr. coon better be hunting a limb for sure. We may come down one night next week and get Terry's collar and hunt a night.

Sounds like O Bomboy is getting it done and getting hunted both morning and night sure wont hurt. Bob you might have to break out the Old Man on the next crew that shows up gunning for you.
thought had already crossed my mind Perry but so far the girls have been able to hang with them. I've got Josie getting deep and alone and Jazzy treeing them layups right and left. Turn them both out and i've got everything covered.

Hunted
O Stepper last nite worked around 5 miles then finally hit a descent track and came treed right. Got to him and he had a big cedar in the middle of a cedar thicket. Made for a hard hunt and a late nite.

Daniel and I hunted Stepper and O Ghost Ryder last night, I burned him with Ghost Ryder under pkc rules. Ryder got first strike and second tree, Stepper got second strike and first tree, Stepper beat O Ryder to the tree, only problem was, he beat the coon too. LOL

Bob,
I went over and hunted with Terry and Smash last night. We turned mine out first and they carried one to the rough stuff. Wound up on property we didnt need to be on so got em out. We cut Smash loose next alone. He got struck pretty quick and jammed one. He done a real nice job. It sure looked like a big coon. I took a video and will try to post it later today. It was a bad night for mine. I never made a tree. I aint had that happen in quite awhile. I gotta try to redeem myself tonight!
i think you and Terry are trying to trick me into thinking Smash can really tree a coon. I don't care how high gas gets , i'm going to keep coming over untill i see him look good.

We seen Smash look good last night. On one drop we never got a bark. His next drop he got struck on a good track and treed right on the edge of the river. He had meat! Only cut him loose twice and cut Shaker loose twice. Mine did'nt do much good. Bad track but did finally tree. He missed him though the coon was a couple trees over. Since gas prices dont bother you just drop us some checks in the mail for gas for our trucks and we will send pics and videos back to ya of Smash under meat.
