What wonderful foxes today! Hounds kept touching on the line as soon as we let out by the meet. You could see the tracts in the snow as the hounds inched up closer and closer to our little fuzzy friend.
Hounds got a pretty good line on the other side of the Ram and from there they pushed out two foxes that ran towards Freemont. The third fox ran back towards the ram, through the woods and then towards the Log House. Hounds stayed together really well and didnt get split as the fox took them through all the heavy briers and fallen logs. Even the puppies had their noses down and looking like they were hunting!
The fox was quiet wonderful to stay a foot for so long, and wrapped around and around and around again until he went back towards the meet and crossed the Pusseyville Road where we had to pull the hounds up.
It was a much nicer day with out all the wind that we had Wednesday!
Looking forward to tomorrow at Down Patrick! 10:00am start!! See ya then!!!
