We put down about 6 oz of blood over 800 yards and are going to let it age 12 hours. We'll head out tonight around 9.

The trail took Hank 20 minutes to work out. He did great.

I love watching Hounds work game. It's something to behold. I don't think there is any restrictions on when to use a firearm here if your tracking, but that does raise another question I didn't think about. Can the hunter there use a firearm to dispatch a tracked animal after legal hunting hours? That dog I had would run me into the ground he was so good at tracking. Once he got the scent he hardly ever looked down again. I used him twice both times I knew what had happened before I got him. He was a blue tick coon hound and came prewired with barks that told the tracker at what stage the dog was in. Hearing him change his bark was a rush. I shot a buck round home and watched it go down in the woods, got the dog and it didn't take 15 seconds before he was standing over it. It was as if his paws went track for track with the animal he was after. It's just something everyone should see for themselves.

Boomer was a great dog for that and I always enjoyed watching him do his stuff
