Hobo,
Had my first dog, a Cocker, 67 Year’s ago. Went to my first tree 62 Year’s ago and this fall was my 61st year enjoying “the chase” with my own hounds! Within those 61 years I have had Blueticks, Treeing Walkers, Black and Tans, English and Redbones and mixes of those breeds. Also nothing better then a good chase of a rabbit ahead of a nice pack of Beagles which I have been lucky to feed. And this winter will be the 60th year I have enjoyed many miles behind a Running Walker, the first 20 years was the chase of the Red Fox, but the last 40 it’s been the coyote that can get the heart beating👍
Why you ask? Because for me, it could be the team work of my hounds and me, or maybe the beauty of nature on a frosty night and then also the blanket of fresh snow. But what I really enjoy the most is the MUSIC of the chase. I feel to many miss that with wanting the “best score” on a piece of paper or the “number game” with who harvest the most fox/coyote!
It was like my 40+ years of softball, never really cared who won, as long as I played the best I could and was having fun.
Just like I like your videos, it’s the team-and the music
Merry Christmas and never take a minute behind your hound for granted 🎅🏻
