Hare trip was awsome got to meet houndog (Jim Umbarger ) another class act from the south.Crabby, Troy lee,Dale Pea, and Jim are a riot to spend a week with. But I'm curious about any 9mm holes,because I left Dale in charge of the Michigan tridition after i left a day early. I know there where pictures taken and would love to see them posted. Can't wait until next year. You guys please keep in touch.

I also enjoyed it Del . I took a few pictures but some of the other guys may have more.

Here is one of Crabtree and one of the Few Hare that he hit.



Another of Crabtree before the morning coffee.



I'm already looking forward to next years Hare trip.

Del, it was great meeting you and Randy. Two fine fellers for sure.
This trip was a once in a lifetime hunting experience for me even though I hope to do it again next year. No doubt, one of my best vacations ever.
I have some pictures but I'm not near smart enough to post them. lol
I just saw on the news this morning that UP got Snow. Good timing on our part.
You guys take care and if you ever need anything, just holler.
Ain't nothing like pounding some hare. lol

I hope they get about 10"...

Sorry guys, but my computer won't allow me to send the pictures. It's a work thing.

SR Patch. Being I'm a southern boy, they can keep all that white stuff up there.

I'll tell you what, in all the years of running cottontails and thought I had some unbelieveable runs, pounding hare beats it anyday of the week. I'm talking two to three hours of wide open pounding. I almost felt sorry for my hounds at time.

Jim for the next month everytime you run you'll think you left your good dogs in the U.P.

Del, Tell them whos hat had the most holes in it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm leaving in the morning hope there is not to much snow

Yes Crabby I got my share this year, but ther is always next year. I can't be that good every year. LOL Did anyone get the 9mm? We all thank God for the morning coffee!!!!!!

Nobody got the 9 We all missed 2 shots on Friday, but nobody shot hats. It just aint the same without you there!!

Looks like I will have some make-up shots to start off next year with. I will make sure I am DEAD ON !!!!!!!!!!

Careful there SR,
We have to deal with the white stuff for 5 to 6 months as it is.
I love winter and snow, but like a little time to enjoy the fall before I have to start shoveling.

I'm leaving tomorrow night or early Sat. morning for the island.
Last vacation I had was 14 months ago.
No cell service, no work, just a whole week of running hounds, eating bear and venison on the grill, and drinking beer.
AHHH, doesn't get much better than that.
