I went after a DEER KILLER

With temperatures up into the high 90's and one heck of a drought it can be pretty hard to trail a lion with hounds ... but with the right dogs it can be done . Lions eat deer .. all year round and on some private ranches that manage their deer herds it just won't be tolerated.

Thank you so much!

[@rowdyhoundsman]

You’re doing good Brett, your pack works together like a well oiled machine. They leap frog nicely while trailing and they all try to help. Like a swarm of scent seeking missiles! I watch how your dogs work and I see how I want my pack to be.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I was proud of them those days ..tough conditions but they tried hard …still can be trashy though at times thanks Rowdy !

[@lorenlieder9789]

Nice video Brett looks like you had alot of fun on that trail from the kill site.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

It was fun ..I do like to see hounds work a tough track …thanks !

Thanks Joe !!.. I think there are a lot of us that feel that way .. I'm in SW New Mexico ..

[@juliojames5986]

Lion hunters travel into their own trouble, Just check one more little draw, one more outcropping…..still got a bit more time, but a long way from water, getting hot……. Its all good later after super, mules an dogs fed, watered…..and on the pillow , fire glowing low, stars bright, one old owl hooting somewhere…🤠🤭😉. Thanks Brett 👍🏻

[@BrettVaughnB100]

And then do it all over again lol Thanks

[@jeffwilcher3333]

Enjoyed it Brett , haven’t watched for a little while now … terrible tragedy our church burned to the ground .. lightening struck our steeple set our cellulose insulation on fire. It’s been a nightmare trying to get everything done and ready for the build back … our last appraisal was a million and a half … so it’s a major undertaking to get that big of a project started back .. we are underway now though … I heard that quote earlier you snagged from me ..😂 and it rings true to my old heart at the moment .. Onward and Upward that is the watchword… Merry Christmas to you and yours .. Jeff Wilcher

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Sorry to hear that Jeff .. will send up some prayers .. I am glad your back .. and yes I have stolen your saying .. I like it .. Thank you !

[@MountainMusicandMules]

Mysterious Scent....I should have a little experience by now but the more I hunt the less I'm sure of anything concerning a scent trail... Another great video!

[@BrettVaughnB100]

You never know about scent …seems like the older I get the less I know …watch on the ridge adventures last lion hunting video ..6 hr old Tom track and only had one dog that could bark on it ..

[@MountainMusicandMules]

@@BrettVaughnB100 Your right about scent being mysterious!...a fellow hunter seen a bear cross a road...15 minutes later my buddy got there (he's got some good hounds) and dogs wouldn't strike it and finally trailed it very slowly out of there...never treed it... Last Friday a guy called me an seen one the night before and had been rained on a little...15 hours old the dogs trailed it up no problem, jumped and treed it... I have theories but honestly can't explain it...

[@garyj2101]

I can't help but notice your saddle at 9:30. Is that a vasilia saddle?

[@BrettVaughnB100]

No I had it made for me by James Morris .. pretty light still a raw hide tree modified association with quarter horse bars .. Thanks

[@jth1195]

Read a book "Nine Years in the Saddle" by James V. Lee. It was about a guy named Dud Lee and some of his associates , who hunted lions in the 1930's. I could not help but think about how tuff those old guys were and how soft we have become. Found you on you tube , and even though you are not as tuff as they were, you are certainly stronger than most of us. Keep on following those hounds.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I have read that book .. yep those guys were made of some tough stuff ... comforts we have make us soft .... Thanks

[@thomasmcconnell2898]

I use to work with mules and what kind of toughness it takes, so l would say from watching you climb hills by foot and mule that you are equally as tough. You are able to take advantage of some comfort technology, but that in no wise makes you any less. I grew up in the hot deserts surrounding Tucson and know how rough they are. Good job and keep up the good work.

[@rockhunter6260]

It took a little while to get her going but, a good trail in that hot windy country Brett. The dogs did well for those conditions, get er next time👍🏻

[@BrettVaughnB100]

That is the plan

[@thomasmcconnell2898]

So what is the purpose of this hunt? You have a mountain lion taking out a deer, which is nature. Is it to just track a lion with the dogs or is it to also kill it? If it is to kill it, is it just for the kill or does this cat pose a threat which necessitates its demise?

[@myeyeswentdeaf6213]

I’m a city boy , NYC, so don’t take my word for it, I’ve never been in the wilderness in all my 47 years, but I’m guessing it’s because now that the lion found a meal on that ranch property the dude that owns the ranch knows it’s gonna keep stalking around his property and eventually get one of his animals.

Hey Bret, I have a suggestion or question...can you do a short video to explain the land usage to us easterners? How do you get access to the BLM land...are you just allowed to use it? We have nothing like that here in NC...I'm very jealous you have so much space to enjoy and hunt with your hounds!

[@jimmymccracken9702]

I'm 80 yrs old and a bow traditional recurve hunter, and I believe that its easier to track lions bobcats etc when they have made a kill thats when they give off more sent,and when they get hungry their sent is the least and other animals can't smell them as much and it allows them to get closer to their prey, what do you think, Jim las vegas nv

[@B4DC0MP4NY21SMYL1F3]

Cats get lethargic and generally don't run as far on a full belly

[@rowdyhoundsman]

Jimmy, that actually makes a little sense. The longer they go without food, the less oils/body odor they produces to try to reduce their scent. That is a sound theory.

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Makes sense to me … I know there are many things we don’t understand about scent ..thanks guys !
