Man that is cool. I have always been impressed by blood dogs and hounds.

How cool is it to share time and stories with a legend of the sport.

Cool story...would consider getting a Wire-haired Dachshund myself.  Me and bros are very capable at blood tracking but when there "ain't blood" it quickly becomes very "un-fun".

More "atta boys" for Roger, Shaun and their little buddy. As much as many hate to admit it, there are times when we need help to finish our responsibility to a great animal. I've known and admired Roger for over 40 years now. Hard to believe it been that long but true. He defintely has a way with words too. I just read what Roger wrote in Don Higgins new book "Whitetail Icons." I don't know what Roger's IQ is, but I think it would scare us if we ever found out!

I was privelaged to share a bear camp with him and his eldest son, Ron, back in the mid 90s with just those two and myself and one friend that I went with from Maryland.  The four of us shooting, eating, hunting and just enjoying Gods gifts.  It was a special week hearing his stories, getting shooting instruction, and just listening to the history.

Uncle Gene I agree with you. When I first read "whitetail Magic" I had to go over it a number of times to grasp what Roger what communicating. That was some studying done during my college days when I probably should have studying my school work!

Congrats on the blood trail work of the dog. Nothing better than seeing a dog work a trail. Cool buck you helped recover.

Congratulations to all involved.

Ryan's little Teckal did some serious deer recovering this year as well. I've seen the beautiful 172" he recovered. Those little dogs are amazing.

Amazing, on a 40 hour old track.  How does the dog know what deer to track?  Do you put it on your deer and it can differentiate it from the others?  What if several deer came in together and you shot one?
