AT THE ENID LAKE HUNT A FEW YEARS BACK, WE HAD A PACK OF HOUNDS GO FROM THE DEAD END RD.(CAST) TO JUST A COUPLE MILES FROM BULLDOG MYERS' HOUSE. THAT IS PAST 4 CORNERS, SOUTH ACROSS THE THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE LAKE, THRU THE DUCK REFUGE, ACROSS HWY 8, AND ANOTHER 5 TO 8 MILES SOUTH. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY MILES THAT IS BUT I KNOW ITS A LONG DANG WAY. DUNNO IF THEY WERE AFTER THE SAME GAME THE WHOLE TIME OR NOT.
This is not a deer Chase but was long distance. I jumped a big white and silver coyote off of the terrible road and schull Rd block on Vanceboro hunting club several years ago. The coyote crossed what we call wire grass ridge went to the swamp, back to the same block I jumped him in 5of the12 hounds took him down in a knew cut-over at county line road and schull Rd block .
He got away from them and decided to get it out of their .He headed out of the club by way of the John block went straight across the welbourn Rd block into the water hole block this is around 6miles from original jump block add the trip to the swamp and back plus once he crossed into water hole block he went to the candy Cain block cruised across the ccc road to hawbranch club crossed varner road then went across the grey road into southside club. From here he made a bee line out of there and proceeded to cross several highways 11 hounds within 100 yards or less behind him . He ,crossed Hwy 43, 17 and several hard surface roads in between . I got a couple hounds off him behind the Pamlico or whatever the cotton gin is north of Vanceboro caught back up with 9 hounds still running him behind the tri county fox pen. I called Allen Lawson and he directed me to where I could go to get in front of them. I caught the last hounds as the coyote crossed the path I was on. Still same white and silver coyote they started out on. It took a total of four hours to get to where I was at and caught the last hounds. Had to use GPS to get back to the club checked straight line miles it was 16 miles from where they jumped him . And don't know how much by the road to get back in the club . I lost one hound out of this race and never saw him again no track no sighn of him being hit never got him back and never could track him. I was thankful that I did not loose more of my hounds than the one. Never heard of our ran into the coyote again. It was interesting that he went from deep in to a good piece of woods ran as far as he had been and he ended up directly behind a fox pen. Things that make you say that was interesting.
