My buddy Bret and I decided to go for a little ride yesterday evening on a friends buggy.
Got there with about an hr before dark, got to where we wanted to be and dropped buck my buds plott, and my dog magic, about a mile down the road, both dogs get piggy and cross a canal to the left, they stick together for about 500 yds, and my dog comes back.
We wait and watch buck on the garmin going further and further. He barks a few times here and there, and after about 45 min he shows treed quarry 2 miles away.
So by now its dark, we don't know the area well, and there is not much dry land out here and some real big holes. We use Google earth on our phones to avoid the deep spots, and in another 45min we are within 200 yds of him. I turn magic back out he makes it in there and starts baying. As we walk the bulldogs in I can hear the dogs trying to catch, so I yell to Bret to let bd go, I let mine go, done deal.
Bret legs her, and I give him a hhand rolling her over. We get all the dogs off, one of my dc30 antennas got ripped off, we try to get some pics, but my phone sucks at night, so this is the best I got. I don't think you can see much, but you can tell she's big.
I'm guessing she was at least 250.
Long cold ride back, we hit a big hole on the way back, dogs slid off the buggy, magic slipped out of his collar and the garmin fell off in the hole, so we had to search for it for 10 minutes in chest deep water, thank god I found it.
Good night all in all, hot shower was the greatest thing ever when I got home.
