hunts
Season has been open for a week. The weather hasn't been the best, Lots of rain to start the week. Last two nights full moon and frost. The leaves on the trees are pretty much off, and its easy to find the coon. I have two males out of Country that I have been hunting. McGinnis Blue Country, and McGinnis Blue Uncle Sam. I know I will jinx myself, and my hounds, But I will say it anyways. I have seen a coon in every tree that the dogs have made. That being said I have not been hunting hard. I was under the weather night one and two and it rained hard night three, So I hunted four nights this week. I started at dark and was home by 9:30 10:00. Country has looked good. He leaves on the run covers ground fast, and goes as deep as he has to get under a coon. Sam is coming along. He was hunting out about 200 t0 400 yards, then checking back in, and then going out again about the same distance. Last night with the frost and full moon he went 800 yards before he got treeded. Because we have so much rain, and the ground is so wet I have not been hunting out of the side by side. I have been parking truck on roads and walking to dogs. I have been hunting them both by themselves alternating nights. Next week I hope to start hunting harder, coming home and switching up hounds, and putting some time on my females. take care Dave
