In this week's episode I am joined by Reed Sikes to discuss Florida Cracker Curs. The Cracker Curs have always been a bit of a mystery to me so I was happy to hear from someone that had them. When Reed and I started talking I knew at once I wanted to discuss the breed and his experience with them. They have been primarily used for hogs and cattle but in Reed's experience they aim to please and are extremely versatile. Not only does Reed have Cracker Curs his family has also had Mountain Curs for many years as well. He has been surrounded by cur dogs his entire life.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

This week's episode is from the vault and it is a little short as well. When I called Don Page, he had never heard of a podcast but agreed to let me record. We didn't talk long but I really enjoyed our conversation. He still holds the record for the oldest guest on the show. The original episode 26. Little Black Dogs For Big Game also features a conversation with Glen Gray. So if you would like to hear more go check that out as well. Unfortunatly Don passed about 6 months after the episode aired. Born September 23rd, 1931 Don followed a tree dog from the time he was old enough to go until shortly before his passing on November 27th, 2022. I think its safe to say we all hope to be like Don!     Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

We talk about some of their old dogs including dogs Aaron bought straight from Warren Haslouer. Neither Brian or Aaron are huge competition hunters but are always packing a pretty solid coondog. I have hunted with both of these guys through the years and really enjoyed my time spent following their hounds.   Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by Mike Sheppard. Starting out Mike trapped in his early youth but quickly relized he wanted to coon hunt to increase his fur harvest. Following the advice of a local Bluetick man, he went stright to Dave Dean to get a Hammer bred Bluetick. After that he was hooked. He started breeding dogs as he needed them and has kept a farily nice line of dogs by all accounts. After about 20 years in the coon hunting game, came a dog that put Mike on the map, Piazon. While he did his fair share of winning Piazon shined in the stud pen and his currently sitting at 9th on the historical reproducers list. Mike is hopefull to have a Piazon puppy in the future that will be as good as some of the other top hounds out if him.     Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia
