I got my moneys worth last night on a tree about the size of a broom stick.

I cut one dog and it was out hunting and was about 500 yards to the right. I had another one out a few hundred yards to the left. The one on the right got struck and treed.
The one on the left decided to visit the one on the right.

I got there and they were on a tree about the size of a broom stick. Actually only one was on the tree because that only had room for one paw on the side of it.

Well I am not sure if the one dog figured I was switching it for coming to the other dog or the slick tree and I am not sure I had that figured out either.

The second dog just got switched for the slick tree.

All I know is I was tired after that tree!!

HOBO you ever have nights like this.

I did manage to tree a couple and before the real hunt started I took a couple pups and turned loose a cage coon for them to run and tree. So it was just another night of hunting lol

Bruce, probably 20 years ago a friend of mine who passed away about 16 years ago were hunting one night. We had turned the dogs up a small drain when his dog fell treed. We walked to him and he was treed on a tree about 10 feet tall and not much bigger than your wrist. Jesse got the dog off the tree and headed him back up the drain. The dog went a little ways turned and went back to that same tree. Jesse again got the dog and turned him farther up the drain, the dog wheeled around and went back to the same tree. When Jesse put the lead on him, he jerked him off the tree and said " you crazy S0B you can look up there and see there ain't no coon". Bruce I guess things like that can happen to everybody if you coon hunt long enough. I sure do miss old Jesse good coon hunting partners are far and few between.

Confession... Went to a hunt a couple years ago, Only 2 nt chs showed and i had drawn out with this guy 3 weeks in a row and we had been back and forth with cast wins. First drop we cut loose in about a 10 acre sweet corn patch with woods at the back, Dogs got struck quick and were just burnin a track towards the woods and BAM they blew up treed, he had beat me on both ends with a first and first. So we start hikin down the edge to go score that nice popup, Heres where it gets ugly, about 3/4 of the way we realize those dogs are still in the corn just hammerin away so we wade through 50 yards of corn to find both of em treed solid on the same cornstalk. And to add insult to injury we could see the coon sittin up on the edge of the woods.
Needless to say that story didnt make it back to the clubhouse, we still laugh about it when we run into each other and i always remind him that he had first tree.
