I have had a bunch of fun treed 5 lions and only one bobcat. Not to bad for Bluticks and only having weekends to run! Treed one yesterday and couldnt make it to the tree till today and they still had the meat! Just got my snowcat from the shop so hopefuly it will just get better. Happy hunting everyone!

I here you about all the wolves but I had no choice to leave them. The cliffs they were in were to dangerous in the dark. It took me 2 1/2 hours to get to the top and only 12 mins out! I didnt sleep much last night I can tell you that. The dogs are fine a little tired and a little hoarse.

Spanky it was good seeing you her the other week!

if you have a good spot you best keep it to yourself the best you can. We cut loose on a female and juvie the other day not far from where I seen you only to walk out of the woods two hours later to find 1 rig parked at the cougar and hounds out track. It circled the mountain and came back out onto the road about 1/4 mile from turn out.

As we headed towards our truck we could hear there hounds treeing and we found another rig just up the road a small piece and the hunters walking into a tree. 20 minutes later they shot out a 85# female. The bastards said they heard our hounds but did not figure they would cross the road

We had grabbed up our hounds at there 1st truck.

They cut in front of you and that makes them a low life they shot a 85 lb female and that proves it as far as I am concerned.

Spanky you did the right thing sorry about your luck. I would be pi$$ed.

If there are people out there doing this just remember there's always somebody out there that can kick your ass. There are psychos in this world and you never know whats going to make them snap so you better be careful. I now a few houdsman I wouldnt want to cross.
