Started out this morning at about 7 in one of my favorite canyons to hunt. Found a bobcat track and put down one dog. He did not do well with it, so I unloaded the 4 wheeler, and I started running the roads with Smokey running with me. Found the bobcat track again, and he got it going better. Went to the truck to get another dog, and on the way back, Smokey was on his way out.
So me and those two dogs kept running the roads and a I came across a female track with two kittens almost her size in tow. Smokey and Dotty hit the track good, and I went to get the other three dogs. Roaded them to where Smokey and Dotty hit the track at. The dogs ran the lion a total of about 800 yards, and I had about a 500-600 yard climb to the tree. Put the first dogs on the track at 10, was back at the truck at 1145. Caught only the female. I think she ratholed the kittens somewhere when she heard the dogs. Hopefully I can run her again.

Accountability - too big of a word for my dictionary.
"clicking" - If we are just basing it off of Tuesday, why, yes, yes things are...
If basing it off of the butt whooping me and the dogs took today, why then nope, not a click, more like a "bang" when you are looking DOWN the bore, lol.
Will say hi.
