Good stuff.

A few from my first hunt in Capitan NM, in and around the Lincoln National Forest..........

When I was a wee yonker, we would visit a coon-ass that lived way out in the boonies over in Louisiana. My dad and he did 36 months on a troop transport ship during WW2. Griff was a die hard coon hunter. Sometimes I'd get to go out and set around the fire with the men while the dogs were running.

A few years later we got our own place up in east Texas. This would be in the early 60's. The old timers there hunted both coons and deer with dogs (usually all year long). Loved to hear those hounds at night. (Still do)

I had a ball on this hunt. I got to cruise around the LNF for three days with my guides. They worked for the gub'mint as trappers and doing predator control. I have about 200 CD's on my I-phone. We had a ball listening to tunes,riding the roads, running the dogs, talking trapping, snaring, reloading, shooting and hunting.

Great guys that worked their azz off.

Like I said, I'd go back to NM any day.

Best,
