Well, there’s a only a couple days left now. This will likely end up being our last track of the season. It’s been an awesome year….better than I could have hoped….and this is not a bad way to end it. Thanks again to everyone who gave Otis an opportunity to recover your deer this year.
CNC Tracking out.

I was able to watch CNC and Otis track a wounded buck for a young girl last week. After following a near bloodless trail (2 drops at the start) for several hundred yards thru shin deep water and head high briars, we saw the buck which will likely survive, cross into land where we couldn't get permission to pursue. CNC went the extra mile for the young lady and did not accept a dime of payment from her Dad. He did give her a big racked skull that we found during the track.

CNC and Otis are the real deal. I enjoyd spending time with them this weekend. They and Mr. Randy and Annie tried to find my daughter's first deer but unfortunately the 243 didn't leave the inside of the buck. With only a few drops(4), show-nuff thick briars(in the top 5 thickest for Otis), and standing water. There wasn't a recovery but ONE HECK OF A TIME watching the puppies work for my baby girl.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND CNC AND OTIS!!
There are two seasons: hunting season and getting ready for hunting season.

I enjoyed it Randy. I'll see you at Trackfest in a few weeks.

enjoyed reading your track stories and the pics of the pup with his finds. Keeping you in mind if we ever need a dog. Have a safe off season
Thanks!

Great thread and enjoyed reading the tales of Otis this season. Already anticipating next year!
Thanks 3FF……
I’m going to start doing some tracking across the state line in Jawja next year. Season kicks off in September. Only 7 months to opening day!

I just hope there is better communication between the trackers so they can refer another dog in the area if they are not available.
AJ and I talk several times a week ….and we usually tracked together every couple weeks this season. I can’t tell you how many times he has told me that the most important thing for us is to first and foremost take care of the hunters in our area. Not only because it’s the right thing to do but also because it’s the smart thing to do long term. Unless the beer and chicken livers do me in, I’ll be here 5 years from now and 10 years from now. The guy I tracked for 5 miles down the road this year will likely be the same guy 5 miles down the road next year and the year after. My goal right now is to establish long term relationships with the hunters who are around me here in southeast Alabama and provide them with a quality service that they can rely on to be there to help them. I hope to just track within an hour of my house and focus on taking care of the needs of those hunters.
