No @gasman I don't need one , just didn't want to hijack your thread.
Just wondering if many on Tndeer have one? I got an awesome 9 month old Mtn cur pup from @OldFussNFeathers that I'm taking to a trainer down in Kosciusko Ms this weekend. He'll work with her for the next month on trailing using interdigital glands & blood, plus obedience training. Will pick her up on bow opening weekend. Have high expectations for her as she certainly has the drive.
Has been about 10 years since having a dog that would track and it has cost us some deer at club. Young planted pines & briars can make it extremely difficult to blood trail through and my old eyes aren't what they use to be. My last dog was a miniature Schnauzer that was just about 100% for 12 years. One problem with Zeke was that he wouldn't say a word. Had to hunt him on a leash and he'd drag me thru every thicket he could find . Other problem with him was that when you drug deer out of woods, he'd always be hanging on too, extra 20# to drag!
