151. "Just By Chance" 50 Years of Coon Hunting

In this week's episode I am joined by a few different people. First we hear from Jimmy Weaver and Anthony Landreth, two of the  men responsible for putting on this event. Jimmy has done numerous coon hunting events to get youth involved over the years and this year decided he wanted to expand things. He enlisted Anthony and a host of others to do just that. Then we hear from 3 of the youth hunters that won coon hound puppies, Branch, Zadie, and Drake. This was such an awesome event and if you are in the vicinity of West TN I would highly recommend taking any youth in your life to this event!  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this episode, Darren Petty joins us once again. He is settling in after his long journey to Sweden and back. Darren and I had talked about this trip a few times while he was planning it and I told him I definitely wanted to hear about it. Darren went over and stayed with former Tree Talkin Time guest Erik Rohdin. Erik planned some pretty epic adventures for the two of them and there wasn't a lot of downtime other than driving from place to place. What would be a once in a lifetime trip for most will most certainly not be for Darren as he is already planning his next trip.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME15 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by John Saunders Sr. I met John at Autumn Oaks this past year and knew quickly into our conversation I wanted to have him on the podcast. He is a wealth of knowledge and stories but what would you expect after 50 years. John's son was on episode 58 and we talk a lot more about the squirrel dogs that they have owned in that episode. John talks about how he got started coon hunting "just by chance" and has stuck with it for 50 or maybe it's 51 years now.    Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME15 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by TJ Bolin. I met TJ at Autumn Oaks and breifly learned about his female redbone Penny. Penny had won her cast in the Dual Champions hunt and won the Redbone breed in the show. After having him on I learned a lot more about redbones and the people that hunt them. TJ is quick to give credit to others that have helped him along the way. He has owned, bred, and hunted some top redbones and I can't help but think that is because of how genuine he is.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME15 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

We share a love of Leopard spotted dogs and talk about them along with how you're not hunting hard enough with out some trash races and skunky collars.  ponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://www.stonecreekhounds.com Promo Code TREETALKINTIME15 https://fullcrymag.com Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia
