Start: 6:40isha.m
End: 8:30isha.m
Note the 'ish' in the start time... Our field master Gary and our whip Hoppy had to do a little 'cattle pushing' before the hunt so we ended up a little off our start time. What good horses huh?
Slow Start on Piersons side and up behind Jims house.
Picked up a line (scent) by the 'Old House' that took us through the 'Stump Woods' and along the pasture line at Jim's then through the 'Clear Woods' in the direction of 'The Park' and the 'Mystery Hole'. Hounds were running very fast and the puppies did a good job keeping up!
I viewed the fox heading back towards 'Barkers Woods' and they ran it through the woods and into the cow pasture, then doubled back into 'Barkers Woods' and through a little creek bed where they hit a miss. Since it was pretty humid and getting hot we picked(stopped the hounds from hunting and moved the hounds to MHF Jimmy) the hounds up and headed towards 'Jim's Pond' to let the hounds have a drink and cool off.
Next Meet 7:00am FRIDAY at Down Patrick (Gibson's) and we are also going SATURDAY at 7:30am at Red Pump (Hog's Run)
