over running the track

[JIM HARRIS]

I HAVE EMBARAASED MY SELF MORE THAN ONCE WHEN I THOUGHT THE DOGS WHERE MESSING UP WHEN IN FACT THEY WHERE NOT. THOUGHT THE BEAR WENT ONE WAY WHEN INFACT HE HAD GONE ANOTHER. THE DOGS WHERE RUNNING CIRCLES AND EVERY ONE THOUGHT THEY HAD A COYOTE AND WHERE GIVING ME GRIEF. I WAITED A WHILE AND SURE ENOUGH A CUB THE SIZE OF 5 GALLON PAIL WENT SCREWING BY WITH THE HOUNDS TIGHT BEHIND. THE DOGS STARTED A TRACK AND WHERE DRIVING HARD TOWARDS THE ROAD. TWO MOOSE CROSSED THE ROAD AND THE DOGS WHERE COMMING HARD. THE DOGS THEN TOOK A HARD LEFT, NEVER CROSSED THE ROAD AND KEPT GOING. WE SAW THE BEAR 7 TIMES THAT DAY AND THE CLIENT NEVER GOT A SHOT. MY FATHER IN LAW WAS RUNNING A CAT. THE GAME WARDEN CAME BY AND SAW A NUMBER OF DEER BUST LOOSE ACROSS A FIELD. HE LAID T HE RIFLE ACROSS THE HOOD AND WAITED FOR THE DOG HE COULD HEAR COMMING. MY FATHER IN LAW PULLED UP AND CONVINCED THE WARDEN TO HOLD HIS FIRE. SHORTLY THERE AFTER GYPIE PULLED UP AND TREED. THEY BOTH WALKED OVER AND HARVESTED A 30 LB TOM. I COULD THINK OF PILE OTHER INSTANCES.

CONSEQUENTLY I DO NOT DO ALOT OF BUTTON PUSHING. GET IN THERE AND SEE WHAT YOU THINK IS HAPPENING AND YOU STILL MAY MISS GUESS THE FACTS. AS ONE PREVIOUS WRITER SAID, BE HUMBLE.

We have a hell of a bear dog thats doing this on fox and cat i believe. When we run bear he will flat leave the pack drifting the track. Now that bear season is over we are trying to run fox and cat. I personaly seen this dog over run the track. we started a fox, a real hot track, the dogs ran it for a couple of minutes then a few hundred feet in front of us the fox came off the hillside and ran down the road. the dog i speak of came off the hill so fast he blew right over the track and almost over the road. He picked it back up but it was a loss of critical time in the terrain we were huntin. He has caught bobs before but i think hes runnin em like a bear almost to fast.
