The Coon Hunt
by:James Hinrichs
well it was a friday morning and i was bored and i decided that i would go a coon hunting well that day i had to do something so i was mad because i couldn't go a hunting so the next day i called up my friend and said lets go a hunting well he was busy so i had to wait until the next day so that next day i didn't have nothing to do so before noon i called a friend and said lets go a coon hunting so we meet at the church later that day and we start out for our hunting area and we are about half way there when the old blue tick we have with us just ah started to bark like no other so we a let him loose and he is on the trail of an old coon so we all get excited and we start to fallow the barking sound and we were on our way there and my partner hit my arm and said look up there and there was a bear and its cub on the ground playing around so they sit down and they could still hear the hound but they ignored it and sit and sit and watched when they were gone me and my partner got up and took off for that old blue tick we he has himself a coon we was happier than tater's in a tater salad.well we get him loaded into the truck and we move on down the road to the usaul spot and when we are arriving at the turn off there was a pickup pulling out we just went some hunters been hunting again. well we decided to try anyways well we let the old hound loose and and he starts a barking like he has a coon but then he goes silent we go a looking for him and when we found him he was smelling something big and black it was a bear so we call the warden telling him someone had been poaching and when he arrives and the report was filed we loaded up in the truck and we were off.we went a mile or so before we decided to stop we get out and let him go and thats when the chase starts.well he starts a babbling and barking so we know he's treed but what's up in the tree but there was two little coons well after that we decided to call it a night well on our way to the truck the dog took off at a sprint and he a starting barking like no other we we hear him tree finally when we get there there is 3 big coons up on a limb.well in all that night we had six coons they were some goodns too.Well a week later we got a call from the game warden they have found the people who killed the bear.we so after a wile i called up my partner and we went hunting and we had let the dogs go when he went silent so we just ignored him for a min then boom the chase was on you could tell he was close because how loud he was a barking and then you heard a loud scream like sound and we dicited he had killed that coon so we go and find him and sure enough he had a coon he was hapier than all get out he was a struting around with it in his mouth.
