Wed I hunted Son alone.First cut he failed to strike on river so moved to a feeder where he trailed slowly in a big circle nearly back to where he started.He treed 75yd off road in a gum tree that joined to a water oak with muscadines. I never could find it so I moved to a beaver pond where he struck & went 250yd & treed in a willow on bank of another pond.He had a young coon so I petted him up & made my way to the truck & called it a nite.
Fri Barry & I cut Slim & Son first on Cain Creek where they struck a bad track & worked it 250yd then Slim crossed & came back up the creek 100yd & treed in ahedge thicket. We couldn't see anything.
We moved & cut Bird on a feeder where she treed on a small tree. We led her off & sent her on. She began trailing again & went all around that scope of woods hitting a couple trees. After 11/2 hour she treed in a big tree close to the creek. Barry soon spotted the coon. I am amazed at this pup.
We moved & cut Son where he trailed 250yd & treed in a willow leaning out over the creek.Couldn't see anything. It probably fooled him. Decided to call it a nite . Keep Em Blue!!!

I hunted Son alone Wed. First drop on river he smelled one close to truck & trailed 100yd toward river then made circle & headed for the feeder. He stopped 50 yd short of feeder & soon treed on a holler tree. Suprised to see a young coon in first fork. Cut him twice more that he trailed a good way & finaly hit up a few barks but never could lock down. I'd rather a pup quit as to slick tree.
Barry & I hunted Thu along Cain Creek. First drop we cut Slim & Son. They soon hit around a few barks & Son unloaded followed shortly by Slim. We drove within 50yds & walked on in. Son was on a tree on the steep bank & Slim was in creek looking up at coon sitting low in tree Son was on. We led them off & cut on down creek. Went 400yd & struck again. Slim soon treed on a big tree just off creek. We looked but didn't see him so we led dogs a short way & looked back & he was all eyes. We moved & cut on a small creek where Slim treed a big tree but we couldn't see anything. We moved & cut Bird on a feeder where she hit a hot track & went 200yd &nailed a big oak close to field We looked at him & petted her up. Cut Son & Bird on another feeder.They trailed 250yd down creek & turned up a fence line.Went 200yd & Bird teed followed by Son Big den but good job.Good hunt Keep Em Blue!!

Last week I hunted Son Wed. He treed before he got to the feeder & left when I got 20ft away. He moved 30yd & treed again. I looked up in first fork where he left & there sat a kitten. Wasn't too happy but after waiting a few minutes I went over & leashed him up & looked up at another coon. Next turn he struck cold & crossed road trailing300yd getting close to a house so I toned him in & called it a nite.
Fri Barry & I hunted Son & Bird. First cut they hit a hot track 200yd & Bird treed with a coon . Son never treed. He's realy having a problem if something else gets the tree. Next track they worked a good while but couldn't do much with it.
Sat I hunted Son alone he hit one & trailed 400yd & went in a creek bank. Cut him twice more but couldn't get after anything. Barry had his grands early but took Bird late.She made 2 trees & had both. She's making it real hard on Son & me. Barry & I have been partners a long time but it's still fun to compete. Keep Em Blue!!!

I’ve been keeping up with this thread and that little female is unreal. I have one off Bocephus x Grits that was also a natural started treeing coon from the get go as a puppy. He’s about 14 mo old. Good luck with her and the rest of your hounds guys.

I think Grits could be bred to a goat and you would have good coondogs that give milk!
She’s no doubt a great reproducer!

I have enjoyed reading about your Floyd female getting it done. Good luck with her in the future. She sure sounds like a nice one.

Take Care,
Scott

I've been out of commission for a while with some family sickness for onver a month then the drought was too bad to hunt pups. Last couple weeks we been trying to get Son & Bird back on track but its been slow with coon layed up feeding on acorns not stirring on ground much.I've also got back a littermate to Son from Donnie Russell who has been fighting cancer & unable to hunt. He's got great looks & a good mouth so I'm going to be spending the next couple weeks checking him out
Slim got his last win Fri at Hanceville finishing him to Grand Nite . Thanks go to Pepper Blackmon for handling him in most of the hunts. We just bred Slim to our Babe female & will be breeding a female of Peppers in a few days. Should have pups after the first of the year. Keep Em Blue !!!

Is one of the best I’ve walked behind. I hope Slim can fill his shoes. I’d like to thank Barry and Billy for selling me Slim and thank you Chris for all your help. Take care of Kid.

I sure hope Slim works out for you. I’m glad to have Kid back home I regretted letting him leave here but glad you got to enjoy him for a while. Maybe we can get a few nice pups from him and do a little winning with him. Good luck with Slim

We've made some changes since my last post. Bred Babe to Slim & she's beginning to show. Should have pups around Jan 1 Will be UKC performance & PKC reg.
We made a deal with long time freind Bob Turnbow sending GrNt Ch Ch Bama Blue Moon Slim to Tn & bringing Ch Nt Ch Bama Blue Kid back home. Pepper will be hunting Kid to finish to Gr Nt Already won 2 cast & only lacks 2 wins.
About a month ago I made a bad mistake & priced Son & let him lay up for the last month while I waited for him to come pick Son up & the man finaly called Fri to say he wouldn't be able to take him. Boy was I happy. I'd been wanting to back out for the last 2 weeks.
I've been hunting another pup 20 nites & things haven't worked out too well. Keep Em Blue!!!
