I had an older gentelman tell me a few years ago " Son if a dog wont tree on a persimmon tree he ain't worth having". It sure is aggrivating though.

I've started marking all the persimmon trees I can find on my Garmin so at least I ain't too disappointed when I walk in there and find it slick.

your right coon are going up and down the tree all the time but when they get the fruit on there feet dogs cant tell where they left at. so there are alot of sent on the tree and no trail leaving the tree, dogs have no choice but to slick

Persimmon Trees

Fellow Hunters;; I venture to say== around 90% of Hunters under 30 yrs old, have not seen, what use to be called a [real good tree dog]. These type hounds are being breed out by competition hunters who want a fast tree dog.

Years back people hunted trail dogs that would tree where the track ended; These dogs knew the track they smelled and would stay with it until the end. While trailing if they lost the track, they searched until it was found. If it was only found going up a tree, then they barked up the tree and the game was there when the hunter arrived!!!

In one sense of the word== Dogs don't tree because the Coon went up== they tree because it didn't come down.

You guys whose dogs are Slick treeing on Persimmon trees, have modern dogs!!!!!

Dogs been treeing slick persimmon trees for 50 years.

LOL

My Uncle is 73 years old. He has been hunting since he was 6 years old. He said he has been seeing dogs miss on persimmon trees as long as he can remember. He told me there have only been a couple(that he's seen) to move a track away from a persimmon tree. On a side note the persimmons are thick here this year. We also have muscadines left on the vines.

I guess you have hunted with all our dogs then haven't you. My grandpa says the same things and he has been hunting since the 40's. I guess he must have had modern dogs his whole life.

During the 2007-08 coon season I kept track of every tree. Bo was 124-145 of trees with coons seen. 8 of those misses were persimmon trees and that was the only 8 times all season I treed in persimmon trees. 6 of those were the same tree during about a 2 1/2 week period.

I've hunted hounds , cur , airedales , jack russells and running hounds all my life ... and I've seen some that would get fooled now and then by a hackberry tree or persimmon grove.


But , for a good hound it better be rare .... we've treed tons of coons in persimmons .

It's like the coon that crosses the road argument .. and folks that say they never seen a dog that can be dumped out and take the track ... etc , etc.

I wouldn't venture to guess why they slick on persimmons or can't run a hot coon out of the road ... but just as much as folks still feed the ones that can't .... I will keep feeding the ones that can !
