Where Would You Like To Hunt??

IF YOU COULD HUNT ANYWHERE FOR COON IN THE 48 STATES WHERE WOULD YOU GO AND WHY?? I LIVE IN SW WISCONSIN AND WE HAVE SOME OF THE BIGGEST AND SMARTEST COON I FEEL IN ALL OF THE 48 STATES, I HAVE THE WISCONSIN AND MISSISSIPPI RIVER WITH IN 20 MINUTES OF ME AND I EVEN HUNT WHERE THEY MEET, AND ITS SOME NICE HUNTING AND IS HARD TO FIND SOMETHING BETTER TO HUNT THAN THIS LAND, BUT I WOULD LOVE TO GO DOWN TO THE OZARKS WITH MY 2 REDBONES AND CHASE EM AROUND FOR A WHILE. I THINK A LOT HAS GOT TO DO WITH WHERE THE RED FERN GROWS, THATS WHAT GOT ME HUNTING RED DOGS, AND COON ALL TOGETHER. JUST SOMETHING ABOUT IT WOULD SEND CHILLS OVER ME WHEN THEY STRUCK AND TREED THERE.......MAYBE SOMEDAY.....

Northern Ohio..............

some of my best hunts have been around Oak Harbor.........and southwest Pennsylvania.............lots of coon, mature hardwoods........just real nice huntin'!

mature hardwoods.. id like to see one of those. almost all been cut here

I would like to try Goldthwaite TX. I heard that the hunter's there are mean and the hounds are some good ones.

Somewhere up north, where folks talk about coons as big as bear cubs. I live in N. Florida and have treed my fair share, but 18 pounds is the biggest I've harvested.

Yeah, I competition hunt !! All Fall and Winter long.. My Blues compete with the local coon.. My Blues win a ton !!! We use and recommend MOONSHINER LIGHTS, Peggs , Ok.

I'd like to try it in Iowa, Ohio, or Indiana where the coon are thick and the woods are open and clean.

Hey John Come on up. But whoever told you the woods are clean was pulling your leg.

Maybe I can do that this fall.

Hey Smoke

I wonder if he ever heard of Multifora Rose.

Smoke..... Thats what I was thinking.

Anywhere there's a reasonable coon population, big, clean hardwoods, nice ATV paths all around, no grumpy landowners, houses or hoodlums. Many thousands of acres with one gate and a 2 mile long driveway and I'm the only one with a key.

Any area that I've never hunted in, and that has some coon. I'd like to hunt every place there is to hunt by the time it is all over with. I've hunted in 10 states, so that still leaves 38 more to go, and Canada too. Wait, Canada has several provinces that have coon, so I guess I have a really long way to go.

John D....You described my place perfectly, Come up for a hunt anytime......

When ya try

Saskatchewan, Ryan..............take some deep huntin' dogs...............the coons are far and few between!!!

HEAVEN

Western NY

I would love to get mine out in Western NY around the Bergen Swamps and even a bit down around Geneseeo. I deer hunted the corn fields there quite a bit and the Coon trails on the field edges looked like hog paths. Beat right down to mud!!! Have seen my share of 30 lb coons there as well.

"biggest & smartest" coons....

Well, the North Carolina coon placed 47th overall in states that tested coons using the California Standard Achievement Test and they average around 11lbs. That should make them the dumbest and pretty small.

For treeing coons I prefer ANYWHERE North of I-70. For testing dogs, Tim's Creek is the place to be.

I've hunted in a lot of places and as far as I am concerned give me Michigan for the place to coon hunt.

I want to hunt...

In the most terrible, god-awful place in the south just one time, just so I can say I've been there and treed a coon.

I thought we had been there already

You know RC.............. southwest of my house! lol

Yeah, I forgot about that hell-hole.

Nothing like listening to your pride and joy drive a track through 40 acres of solid briars and crap in November only to come up on a house cat. Boy what a blast that was.

When are we going again????

Red Cedar

Come on down I got just the place for ya, your welcome anytime.....LOL Mountains, cut over, saw briars, mud up to your a$$, Pine trees, Hard woods, HoneySuckel, every Poison Plant or Vine known to man and throw in a few snakes to keep you on your toe's. Skeeters big as Humming Birds, Ticks big as Grapes, & All in a 500 ac patch with about 3 10lb coon in it..... "hmmmm" think I'll go tonite..lol
