If you do take him off the leash in the swamp keep an eye on him and I'm case he gets his collar hung up in stick ups. I've seen a few good hounds that folks have swam to to take the collar off and I have went over my waders to free one myself. Take an extra collar to put around something in the boat and you can use a two way snap to put his collar to the tie off collar for the boat ride.

Oh, there will most definitely be no swimming involved where were going…..it’s full of big arse gators and he literally shot the deer on the edge of the river bank. That’s the issue with this one, if we run into swamp and standing water then the track will just be called off. The way the deer was headed, I don’t see how we’ll keep from it. It was nothing but a marsh. The deer looks to be hit pretty hard though so I’m hoping we get lucky and he’s bedded up somewhere close by. Here’s a couple pics of blood the hunter sent me.

Don't know what river your going to but I wouldn't worry much about gators this time of year under about 65 they stop eating and under 55 they go dormant. It is pretty warm this morning though

I appreciate it y'all…… I wish there was an epic story to tell on this one…..but the truth is the buck was only another 150 yards past where they lost blood. The deer had run a straight line for several hundred yards and they lost him at the point where he decided to take a hard left. Otis took us to the deer in the matter of minutes and no gators were even seen. The hunter had put a pretty decent shot on the deer but the issue was that he didn’t realize how much the deer was quartered to him. You can see the entry hole in the previous pic…..the exit came out just in front of his back leg. Had the deer been quartered away then he likely wouldn’t have went nearly as far. It was still a really cool track taking a boat into the hit site like that though.
