My New Hunting Partner
« on: August 17, 2008, 12:28:00 AM »
I went to the Montana State Houndsman Association trials today and the raffles as well as my friends were really kind to me.  One of my lion hunting friends happened to win this prize and said he already has two and asked if I wanted one of my own (I think it was just to keep me from borrowing theirs all the time).

 

She is now seven weeks old and should be ready to follow the big boys and learn the ropes when kitty season opens on 12/1.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Nice Bluetick. I had a couple of Sebastian bred Blueticks that were excellent bear dogs.

WidowEater, she be a Bluetick and named Pearl.

Joseph, as expected, all three of the cats, Ludo, Sebastian, and Joe, freaked out, they are still looking out the windows wondering what the hound is doing in their yard.   But Pearl is holding her ground, trying to get at them through the window.  Needless to say, this pup will be kept outside and out of sight of the cats.

Randy, give me a call if you cut any tracks this winter, I want to put her on as many trails as possible this years.

Absolutely gorgeous pup Walt, I could have used her help last year.
Happy Trails,
