Bait and Switch

Post by FullCryHounds »

I found a nice Tom several weeks ago. Checked the area several times and found he had walked down the same ridge twice. Checked this morning, it was 50 MPH winds but found his blown in track. He had walked down the same path for the third time in two weeks! Turned out and waited to see where we were headed. Dogs ran all the way around this mountain and 20 minutes later ended up 1/2 mile below us. Headed to the tree. Half way there, silence. Cat had jumped and headed downhill. Another 1/4 mile down the canyon and could here them treed again. Got there to find this beauty. We had found her track a 1/2 mile up the road before the Tom but kept going down the road to find the Tom. Apparently, the Tom and this girl had crossed tracks somewhere along the way. Took some pics and video and off she went down the hill.

Good job Deaner :wink: Nice looking hounds.

Jim and I had the same thing happen last weekend, twice :? Real dandy tom too from the looks of the track, hoping we can cut his track again and possibly getting a chance to see just how nice he really is :wink: I'll pm you if we do.....
