BO and BRIAR

My son Shane came out tonight and we took them to BO's Bottom and cut them down the side of the Beaver Lake. Briar struck within 100yds and BO joined in so I relaxed a little and settled down on the 4 wheeler to see if they would put this one up a tree. They moved him around in the water for a couple minutes and it wasn't looking good. BO headed out to 200yds looking to pick it up deeper and Briar came back our way and opened 70yds in front of the 4 wheelers headed away from the direction BO went. He was opening good and I started to worry it might be the Bunny Race but BO came to him and went to working the track too. They moved it into the cypress swamp and hit some deep sloughs and that broke them down again for a minute. Briar went down the slough to the right and BO went left a little then crossed it. Briar had went over 200yds looking for the track then looped back by us and I loaded him up just about the time BO starting opening again. We rode half a mile through the woods and got around the big slough to his side. He trailed a little more then locked up treed out in the slough. I went to him and it was thick and I got over my boots in water. He was on a big gum full of vines but the coon was looking at me good just half way up. I sure wish Briar had went the right way looking for the track and ended up under this coon to because he sure wanted to fall out in that water and cool off. But that's the breaks so I told BO Good Job and came on out. Briar will tree that one another day. We cut them one more time and BO treed a lay up in a young white oak loaded with thick vines. He winded that one and it took a minute to settle on the right tree but he got it right. Briar came into us but I left that one to run again. Waiting on a pup to get that perfect track and do that perfect track and tree job and it to be the perfect tree, easy to shine and easy to find, is like watching a pot waiting on the water to boil. You know its going to happen but you want it to happen NOW! At least that's how I am. All its going to take to get Briar to the next level is that one perfect tree with other things working out just right and it will be on from there. Well they will be off a few nights while I work but I will be back after them Sunday night. Training season opens July 1st and I can shoot one per night if I wanted so when it opens I have some new places I'm going to hit with Briar and the rifle and maybe those coons will be a little easier to tree and find and I can get him clicking. He's got what it takes, I just need to do my job to bring it on out of him. Good Hunting!

BATH DAY

Mason, Beverly and I took all the hounds swimming yesterday and they all got a good bath. We cleaned out all the houses and put fresh Pine and Cedar Shavings in them so they are good for another 2 months on bedding. We swam them good and they enjoyed it. That cool swim makes them feel so much better on these hot days. When we put them back up they all lay out on their upper decks and I swear they have a smile on their faces. Mason don't get to play with BO much now that he is a hunting hound but today they got in some play time. It amazes me how gentle and easy moving he is around Mason, making sure not to knock him down but in the woods with me he turns into a Braham Bull that needs to be some where in a hurry. I fuss at him some but deep down I'm ok with his hard headed attitude and high strung ways, reminds me of myself sometimes! No hunting tonight as I am at work now on the I-10 Project but all is going good so far and that makes it a lot better on all of us out here.

Bath day

Great picture Steve, It sure is pretty there by the river. Sheba 11 finally got her coon tonight. She treed him deep in the swamp where we wouldnt bother any body. She did a good job on him. I'll be looking for your call. Take Care.

TRAMP, BO, and BRIAR

MR. Jack came over last night and we made a round. Took them to BO's Bottom first and cut them up a ole slough. They hit an old feeder track and worked it up the swamp past the Beaver Lake which was over 400yds from us so we fired up the 4 wheelers and rode that way. When we stopped Tramp and Bo were treed but still over 300yds away so we rode closer and walked the rest of the way in. I knew where they treed and told MR. Jack BO had treed in there before on a big bushy oak that was hard to shine. Sure enough they were on that tree and we looked but it was almost straight up and we couldn't get him to look. Cut them again on another slough and they just couldn't get a track found. They come back by us and we walked the other direction to get them headed that way and finally they struck another old track and Briar went their way but struck his on track to left of BO and Tramp. BO hit a tree so we headed his way. Got in there and Briar came into us and Tramp was there but not really liking it and it was a medium tree that the top was broke over and went into a lot of other trashy tops of small trees. He wasn't there but BO kept winding and treeing like he smelled him but we didn't see him. I don't believe he was in the tree he was on but feel he was there somewhere. On way back to 4 wheeler Briar bumped a Wabbit and I bumped Briar. Went to Black Branch swamp and same ole same ole. No tracks. BO opened a couple times on one track and Tramp and Briar opened a couple times on another but couldn't do anything with either track. Briar found him another Wabbit and found out their not any fun any more. Better hunting coming soon, I Hope!

BO and BRIAR

Scott, I'm putting in as much time as I can keeping them in the swamps. Hope all is good up your way, Take Care.

Took BO and Briar across the road from the house. Cut them down the cypress slough and BO got deep in a hurry and Briar got a hot track going to my left that didn't sound right and it wasn't. Ended in a Diller hole in the ground and I got to him before he left it and we had an educational meeting. BO was opening here and there over 500yds down the slough so I cut Briar to him. About time I turned Briar loose BO treed. I made my way to him and it took a while to find the beaver dam to get across to his side, they NEVER tree on my side. He was on a huge cypress in a bottom covered with privet hedge and their tops were interlocked so bad you couldn't put a light up that tree further than 15'. I looked for a while trying to find a spot to shine from with no luck. Hooked BO up and we got back to the 4 wheeler and went to BO's bottom. I was going to wait until 3am to cut loose but it clouded up this evening and rain was just south of us and it blew in some cooler air. At 10pm the temp was 76 and heat index was 80 which was a lot better than the last few night where the heat index was 100 night before last. Anyway, cut them on the feeder at the lake and the race was on Cut Briar first and he left there rolling and then cut BO. He opened a few times then he was roaring out to the left with Briar's track going right. BO slammed the tree at 417yds and I could tell by the Garmin that he was right beside the trail. In the mean time Briar was still going right. Right then I made a bad decision. I decided to haul it to BO, grab him off the tree so he wouldn't get hot if Briar treed in some bad stuff and it took a while get back, then I could catch back up with Briar with BO on 4 wheeler. So I lit out, got to the tree which wasn't 50' off the trail and as I was throwing the light up the tree and found the coon right off, Briar fell treed 650yds the other way. I just could hear him because BO was making so much racket. I went in grabbed BO, loaded up and was just about to Briar and here he comes out of the woods onto the trail. When I stopped the 4 wheeler BO blew up as he was winding the coon Briar treed. I got off and took the Garmin and went in to where it showed Briar treed thinking he would get back on it but he didn't. Very disappointing. I wish I would have stayed with Briar and been close when he hit the tree. I think I'm going back to the basic's with Briar, set up controlled situation where I know the tree the coons in and when he locates and trees be close, go in and work with him on the tree and give him a couple of rewards when he trees right. Don't know what else to do if he wont stick long enough for me to get to him. He was doing better a couple months ago on tree when he was treeing squirrels and the couple turned out coons and 3 wild ones. But I haven't put the right one on him I think he needs to throw that tree switch to a higher level. Its in him no doubt, I'm just not having things go my way. Sooner or later it will fall in place and that one tree where he gets to meet the right coon with a little attitude, that's when I think he will figure it all out and start staying hooked a little better. I have to work tomorrow night so I will get to hit the woods Thursday night then work the weekend. But, we aren't working July4th Weekend so I will have about 9 nights in a row to work on ole Briar, by himself. Good Hunting Coming!

Hang in there, Steve. You'll get Briar going. I heard that some Echo dogs take a little longer to get right on tree. Even so, Briar is only 11 months. My Anne female, who turned one year two days ago, seems to be a lot like Briar. She needs some correcting on trash, and she's not treeing well consistently, but she can really move a track, and she can tree like a pro.

THE PERFECT NIGHT!!

Finally! This morning very early it all came together for Briar. The Good Lord must have got tired of listening to me complain and smiled down on this Hunter and his Hounds. Went in to work tonight but Baton Rogue was getting hammered with storms and very heavy rain. We set out there until 11pm and I knocked everyone off. DOTD will not let us close a lane on I-10 if its raining or wet so home I came. Got in around 1:30am and my wife asked if I wanted a cup of coffee before I came to bed and I told her I would take a cup before I went hunting. It had rained a little here and was only 72 degrees and knowing I have to work tomorrow night because we didn't get it done tonight there was no way I wasn't cutting them loose. Loaded up BO and Briar and went to Black Branch Swamp. Cut them toward the feeder which is down the Branch a ways and they didn't strike. In a few minutes BO opened a few times and Briar started opening some as well. They worked that ole feeder track down the Branch a couple hundred yards then turned left into the BAD STUFF. They trailed out into that mess about 150yds and BO located first with Briar right behind him. I grabbed the rifle off the 4 wheeler and headed their way. It was bad that last 100yds, real bad. I saw the coon looking at me when I was still 60yds away. Briar had slacked up treeing but Bo was letting him know he wasn't going nowhere. The coon was setting in a fork and thankfully it wasn't a bad looking shot. So I hooked BO back, petted Briar up some and had him treeing pretty fair, backed out some as fast as I could and bam, down he came. Briar heard the thump and ran over to check it out and it couldn't have worked out better. Lets just say Briar got a fat lip and really got mad and the coon got up a small tree just out of his reach. Perfect! He tried getting belly up on the small tree as he was blowing the top out but kept falling to the side so he settled for setting back and hammering. Steam was rising from his body like a cloud of smoke and I took a short video I will post in a minute. I let him tree good a few minutes then we finished up and got out of there. It was slow going and I got pulled down and wollered around in the mud and thicket a minute before I could get back up, and funny thing was I wasn't mad BO pulled me down. Amazing what a pup hammering the tree under a coon will do for a mans mood. Got home and Briar was prancing he was so proud and happy and I thought, shoot, I got to have a picture of me and Briar. So, woke the wife up at 3:30am to take this nice picture of my proud, muddy, Hound. And my drenched self. I told Beverly since she was so kind to get up and take such a good picture she didn't have to worry about fixing me breakfast later. Truthfully, I'm kinda scared she might put a little something extra in it for waking her up! Good Hunting!!!

BRIAR's PERFECT NIGHT

This is a video of Briar treed on that coon this morning. Click on picture to see video. Chris, I know Briar has what it takes to be a good one, I have already seen the flashes of greatness a few times. Tonight it all came together and I think this will really get him fired up and should help him settle a little better on tree. What was so good about this coon was that it wasn't a short, hot, fast track off the feeder but a cold trail that held just enough scent that they could move it decent and find the right tree in some bad, bad stuff. MR. Jack hasn't had the pleasure yet of having to go in that part of Black Branch Swamp with me to get them off the tree but Bryan Tate has, twice. Both times he came hunting here we got into it. Maybe that's why he waited a year to come for another hunt, forgot how bad it was then we end up in it again. Hanging in there is for sure a part of Coonhunting and a part of life. I wasn't about to give up on Briar but I sure needed this night to come along and so did he, Take Care and Good Hunting!

BO and BRIAR

Took them to BO's Bottom at 2am this morning. Cut them at the Beaver Lake and they got on a good track pretty quick and got it lined out and going good. They went through the 700yds of swamp then through a stretch of good, open woods then into a place I haven't been in before. I kept up along the trail with my 4 wheeler and had them less than 400yds away but couldn't hardly hear them. Garmin started showing both of them treed but I couldn't tell by listening. I got worried they had fell in a dug well so I lit out to them. Got within 100yds and could still barely hear them and as I was going through a thick patch of scrub oak I found out why. There was a huge Indian Mound that rose almost straight up from the low elevation of the swamp bottom. I had no idea this was in the 660 acres I have been hunting the past year. The calves of my legs were screaming when I got to the top. If I had to guess it was probably 150' tall and as I climbed I had to grab small trees to help pull myself on up. Hounds were just over the top and that explained why I couldn't hardly hear them. Briar met me off the tree but went right back. As I climbed I could hear him and he was hammering that tree. Yesterdays hunt really fired him up and I want to have several more hunts like that and I will go back to hunting him by himself. Right now just trying to keep him with BO and keep him on coons over and over and get a few out to him. This should make him leave the junk alone. They were treed on a big bushy water oak and the side of that mound was covered in scrub oak and there was no place you could get a light up on the tree. I looked a while and finally give up and we came on in. It was a good chase and I enjoyed listening to those two hounds follow the Indian Coon Home. Good Hunting!

Thanks Chris! I agree Ole Briar is built pretty good, reminds me of a Cutting Quarter Horse. He is starting to get a little muscle to him and lose that puppy fat. When we get done with this weekend work I'm going to put BO in some hunts and put Briar on the bench and see how it goes. We didn't have to work last night or this weekend because of the big chance of rain and we will be off next weekend as well so Briar has about 10 nights of good, steady hunting. Hoping to have a few more trees like yesterday and he should be ready to go back to it alone. Hope all is good over your way and that you and your hounds are getting in the woods some, Take Care.

Steve. I read your entire blog and enjoyed it. It sounds like you have some very nice young dogs. What impressed me most was you woke your wife up at 3 AM to take a picture and there's no blood on you or Briar. LOL

PUPS

Thanks shadinc! She's a good woman that loves these Ole Hounds about as much as me and Mason. She gives me
" THE LOOK " every now and then but don't fuss and I love her for that.

I have a female pup booked off MR. ED Mauney's fine gyp, Bobbie X Bocephus. They were supposed to be here the 22nd and I just got word from him that she just started having them. Hoping every thing goes great and she has a dozen or more. The Cool thing is they are being born on my BO's Birthday. He turned 2 years old today. That has to be a good sign that him and his half sister will share the same birthday. Any one looking for a great bred pup off two outstanding hounds with lots of great hounds in their background let me know and when he knows for sure how many he has left to sell and what sex they are I will post it on here. In my opinion they will have huge mouths and they will do what they are bred to do, tree lots of coon.

Steve

Great pics & hunting stories. From my hunt with Mr. Jack years ago, it seems nice to have such big areas to hunt in the swamps, even if it is wet a lot of the time.

1 question- you never mention anything about a snake or gator- don't you have them in the summer or just don't put in your stories, if do see them!!!! Don't think I'd like to hunt in that much water in the summertime.

Had 3 good hunts myself this week & going out for #4 in a few minutes. Love it in the 60's & the tracking is good from the rain we've been getting. Guess I could say that I've already had 4 good hunts in the past week as my grand daughter, Madi, handled Anne to a 2nd place last Sat. night at the Wisc. State youth hunt. Time to hit the hills, catch ya later. Take care, Ron.

SNAKE BITE

Ron, you shouldn't have said, SNAKE. Poor Ole Bo got bit this morning right at daylight as we were finishing up hunting. MR. Jack and I had saw a Cottonmouth the other night in the swamp and I had one out in the river with me yesterday when I was winching logs, he had a small flathead catfish in his mouth. Bo was trailing down a slough and just stopped and quit opening. I got worried after a few minutes when he didn't move on the Garmin and took out on 4 wheeler his way. Got into him and he was just sitting with his head hanging. Hit on his left front paw, last year it was the back one. I keep Benadryl on the 4 wheeler and gave him 3 of them then flew home and toted him up on the porch. My penicillin was expired so waiting on CO-OP to open so I can get some fresh and give him 3 1/2 cc. I shot a Gator in the river 10 years ago but haven't seen another. We have very few around me and I don't look for them or the snakes, just plow through the swamp and hope for the best.
Congrats to Madi and Anne on their win, I know your a proud Paw Paw, Take Care Ron.

Yes, the cottonmouths are at it here too. My American Bulldog female has been bitten twice in one full week. Last Friday (June 19) she was bitten late in the evening. Didn't realize until the next morning when the right side of her face was swollen. She was bitten again in almost the same place early yesterday morning while I was hunting Anne. I'm thinking she's aggressively confronting the snakes based on where she's been bitten and since the hounds have been avoiding it. I hope she learns her lesson quick and stops. She's not Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. If she gets it from a timber rattler, she might not get over it.

RIVER FUN

This is a big Post Oak I winched today while having fun in the river. It fell off the bank across the river from my land about 10 years ago. I had cut a few logs off it then and sawed them, dried and planed and tongue and grove them for flooring. This butt cut still attached to the stump had been in the river all this time with the stump getting buried by sand and rock. I always try to pull trees as they fall off opposite bank to my side as this helps break the current when the river floods and it will cause sand and rocks to settle downstream of the log jam thus building up more land and keeping the river at bay and from taking anymore of my land when it floods. I put a snatch block on end of Post Oak and came back to the big Turkey Pine the cable is running over and went through another block then back to the Post oak where I dead ended it. Doubled up my pulling power and sucked that monster stump right out of the bottom of the river then spun it on my side where the stump is up river. Cant wait to see the first high water and how much sandbar is below this big stump when the river goes down.

Chris, seems like just in the past week the Cottonmouths are really on the move and I'm starting to see a lot of them. Hope your dog gets better after being hit by two. BO is in good spirits but paw and leg swollen up bad. gave him 3cc penicillin this morning and again this evening, an aspirin and another Benadryl. Will do this for 3 days and he should be fine. He is eating and drinking water good.

Dripping wet

Steve you look about as wet as I was the night that I fell in the swamp and burried your new 10-22 rifle and the new Red Dot scope in the mud. I beleive you are in cleaner water than I was.

So Steve, did you pull that out with your four wheeler or did you just spit on your hands and put your back into it? Lol

Snake Dog

Well, maybe my bulldog is going to be Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. I didn't take her with Anne to hunt pre-dawn, so I let her out of her dog run to move around some mid-day. She sniffed out a cottonmouth and killed it right at the corner of my house. I hope she wasn't bitten again. Her neck and face are still swollen from the Friday morning bite, but I couldn't see any new marks. She must think she's a snake rather than a hog dog.

BRIAR

Took Briar tonight to BO's Bottom and cut him near the Beaver Lake. There was some bad weather about 30 miles west of me but I felt like it would stay west. He didn't strike where the feeder was and I figured it was empty so I walked in and took a look and it was. He went on into the swamp and struck at 186yds and opened here and there but moved it on out good. I idled along on the trail trying to keep him within 100yds so when he hit the tree I could get on in there. After trailing him about 400yds he came across the trail out in front of me then hit a tree less than 100' off the trail with three long bawls. I eased off the 4 wheeler while he checked it and threw my dim red light out into the top of a big water oak and there he set looking at me with both eyes in a big fork. Only trouble was Briar didn't get back on it. I waited a couple minutes and went into the tree and he came in to me, reared up on the tree and let out a couple of huge, bawl locates but got back down. All the petting and loving in the world and I couldn't make him get right on that tree. I know it wasn't a hot track and the scent probably wasn't strong enough for him but man it gets frustrating knowing he has what it takes and he trailed him good and located the right tree. I left the coon to run again, until the treeing gets better, like he did the other morning, they ALL will get to run again. It started to spit some big drops of rain so I hauled it back home, try again tomorrow.

MR. Jack that was some nasty swamp water you took the spill in that night. Glad you put the first mud and scratches on that rifle, makes it easier for me to beat briars with it now.
Rowdy, winched that tree with a Tulsa Winch I run off the PTO of my tractor. I used to think I could spit on my hands and put my back into it and move most anything, now I know better!
Chris, I need your snake dog over here, I could just send him ahead of me on the way to the tree and he would root out all the snakes and kill'em. Good to have a dog like that around the house, he might have saved someone's life by killing that snake, you just never know.

Sounds like Briar has a really good nose on him and just needs experience to develop the confidence to make it work for him and you. That's still pretty impressive work for a pup 11 months old.

That bulldog of mine is a hunter, no doubt about it. After she killed that cottonmouth by the house she got a rabbit later in the evening. Blue cut out on a track opening strong for a few minutes but lost it and came back. I put him up and here came Molly the bulldog with a rabbit in her mouth and dropped it at my feet. I don't know for sure that Blue turned the rabbit up, but I suspect that's what happened.

Wolf is turning the crank up in Oklahoma, working some cold tracks and putting Mr. Ringtail on the end of it. I'm going to pick him up next week.

Kenny there will be some good ones come from that cross. I know Justin really likes the pup he got from you off Traveler. Feel free to post anything about your hounds on this thread anytime you want to. I would love to try a pup off Traveler one day but I'm overloaded now. Just like fooling with the pups and watching Mason have fun growing up with them. Your right about Briar he is going to get there, just taking a little time. BO had his ups and downs before he leveled out and became consistent. And it seems the tracks BO first started getting treed on were easier than the ones Briar has come across. Take Care and Good Hunting!
