I am one happy man tonight. Batman treed his own coon and had the meat! This pup is gifted. If I don't screw him up I'll have something. Now he is one trashy devil, he treed a couple grinners before he got to the coon but I ain't complaining I'll take care of that. He and Rampage about killed this old man tonight.
Batman treed a grinner right off the bat. While I was checking that out Rampage got about 1/2 mile in and got treed on a big oak. I looked it over hard but couldn't see anything but there was plenty of places in the leaves for one to hide. I started back toward the 4 wheeler and was about 3-400 yds from it when I decided to set down and see what they would come up with.
I looked on the Garmin and they were already 600+ out. Again they hit on something and both opened on track and soon split up. Rampage went almost a mile and treed solid. Batman had worked around about 850 out and was working a track it appeared so I took off to Rampage. Right about the time I got to Rampage Batman treed in. I found Rampage's tree and took some pics and knocked it out and got a line to Batman who was right at 3/4 mile. We got to him and he was in a low lying area next to a swamp. He was treed in a tall poplar and I could see most of it from the side I walked up on and nothing. I started making my way around it and every way I tried to look the understory had me blocked. I had almost made it around the tree and I got an opening and there was a limb sticking out on the tree and there laid the coon. I was as happy as a pig in crap. I leashed up Rampage and knocked that thing out! This pup has all the tools, all I have to do is hunt him. I sure like him.
