Don't you love it when....

Don't you love it when you get one treed and are home by 830pm? Lol that's living the dream in the Appalachian mountains. Most of the time I'm lucky to get to my dog at 200 yards within an hour in these steep mountains.

I admire you for hunting in a place like that. I'd probably consider a different hobby if I lived there.

I'd be lying if I said there weren't nights I ask myself what in the world I'm doing.

Dave Richards I will be 72 in May and like you no more all nighters but I do get to go more often now that I don't have all the other responsibilities. Lots of weeks I hunt 6 nights but only for 2-3 hours a night. I love it.

Leatherwood/Tom

My hunting partner just turned 83 in Jan and was/Is one of the hardest coon hunters that I have ever known. He got Covid around Thanksgiving and has a real hard time getting over it, did not think he was going to live. Thankfully, he pulled through and is slowly getting better, but we have NOT gotten to go coon hunting in over 7 weeks. Hopefully, we will be able to go some before the season ends on March 10th in Virginia. We usually hunt 5 to six nights a week for 3 or 4 hours a night, that's about all we can stand hunting in these steep mountains. Unfortunately, the hunting all night days are over for us these days, but the love of coon hunting is still strong. GOD is great and has blessed us in so many ways, we are really thankful that my hunting buddy has finally beat the Covid virus, even though Covid put a big damper on our hunting this year. Dave
