I stayed home yesterday on the summer pursuit opener and painted on the house and got a few honey-do things done. However, I got weak today and loaded five hounds and went looking for bear.... The four dogs on top bumped a couple times and then around 6:30 AM they hit the chain with a roar. I looked the road over good but couldn't find a track and could see the breeze was coming off a little ridge above me, so I turned out my two redbones and the pup right in behind them. After they made a couple hundred yards I cut my two four year olds loose and away they went. I jumped in my truck and backtrailed a half mile and could here them cold trailing several hundred yards below me, so I went to see what they had. Those hounds were in an old burn and the sow track was easy to see so I let'em run. A few miles later they were all five on the wood and all was left was the climb into the tree and the photo session. Keep'em treed, ike

Sorry to hear you guys are having a bad turn of luck Bear. Chin up, caused it'll turn around before you know and you'll be in tall cotton! It clouded up a little today and suppose to only have a high of 88 tomorrow, so I'm gonna load hounds and play. Wish me luck! ike
