I coon hunted for about 25 years. Bred my own strain of english redticks for 22 years. some of my most cherished memories are the years my boys and I were coon and bobcat hunting. But alas, nothings for ever, they discoverd girls and decided that there was better things to catch at night than raccoons. So I sold off my dogs and started staying home at night.(Made my wife happer anyhow.)
