great vids Ant! looks like a blast! i love beagles lol

not to bad of a catch there either, you make stew with them?

[bellmorekennels]

Thanks Geno, My mom makes a stew with potatoes and vegetables with a little tomatoe sauce, great for bread dipping!!! I just started cooking on bbq, very tasty!!!

[Geno C]

YUM, if you ever want some company on a rabbit hunt let me know! lol

[bellmorekennels]

Geno, would love the company, I usually am solo,maybe me, you and karp go out for a day on the island. Any luck with bow hunting yet?

[Geno C]

sounds good dude im in. bow hunting is picking up quick by me. I had a very nice heavy horned 8 i let walk after i saw what my trail cam had on it the few nights before. I got a great buck working the area im in and i believe its only a matter of time until he shows up. i feel something is going down this weekend so im pumped!

my buddy shot a nice 8 sunday, we lost him and can not even find blood. Its upsetting but it happens. the shot was marginal and did not produce a dead deer that we found. hes been looking for days and i even took a half day to help him look on monday. In his search today he came across a monster buck working in at 12 noon while he was looking for his hit deer. so things are picking up like they should

[bellmorekennels]

Sucks about your friend, did he think about calling a deer tracker with dogs, I would offer to do but, I usually shock my dogs for trailing deer, so do not want to promote it with them, sorry.

[Geno C]

thought about it, only thing is there is not one drop of blood anywhere for at least 100 yards or better. Its very odd but i could not find a drop at all.

Great vids Bellmore......I happened to notice a nice buck rub on that sapling in the 3rd video.

For years we hunted one area in Ridge on state land,we would fill our bags every time out.Then they started building houses like crazy on the island,a lot of the people would get a young puppy that would start messing up the house,get POed and drop the dogs off in the woods,they became wild and started killing every thing they could to survive so there went the rabbit hunting.Glad to see it has built back up again.

[bellmorekennels]

Rich, thanks I enjoy videoing just as much as shooting, nice to relive whenevr you want.. There were a few rubs I did notice, and a fresh scrape nearby also.

Anthony, you always get my heart pumping. You videos rock. Thank you. You make sitting at home a great load of fun. Yea i'm in , let me know when you get out. Anytime, but November 13, my daughters birthday. She is getting her first pink bow.LOL

[bellmorekennels]

Karp, thanks, I just along for the ride though, it is the dogs that do all the work!! Wasn't sure if I should post my miss or not, but that is part of hunting. Congrats on your daughter's birthday! Hopefully you and geno tag out soon, so we can get together before too much snow on ground. Maybe within the next few weeks , we get together with geno, and go for some appetizers or something at fridays or applebees.

Let me know what you think.

[Karpteach]

Bellmore, I'm in. From your mouth to gods ear about tagging out soon. Waiting for Genos repot from today's sit, hope he did well.
