Well, another whitetail season has come to a close for us. Despite my old dog getting hurt in November, we really had our best year ever in terms of recoveries.
We had several difficult tracks where we pursued deer a mile or more and one we ended up coming in 24 hours behind and still catching after a 900 yard track and a brief chase. Rowdy recovered 13 out of 17 deer and the four we didn’t get have all been accounted for (seen alive) so pretty good stats overall. I had to turn down about a dozen good tracks while Rowdy was recovering from her injury but that’s just the way it goes.
Also got in some good training with a 1 year old dog from Aaron Low and D.J. Middleton. She finished the season strong finding about a dozen deer by herself and getting to two separate bays with older dogs.
Much thanks to everyone that put their trust in us. We are switching gears and heading to Florida for a few weeks but we will be back and hopefully going after some exotics before it gets hot!
