Coon Hunting Terms

I notice that coon hunting terms have changed thru the years and new ones added. Back in the day dogs that ran things other than a coon were "Junky" now they are "Gamey". Well I admit gamey sounds less negative, lol.

What other terms have changed?

People accuse me of being color blind. The truth is I will hunt red ones, blue ones, black and white ones, yellow ones, black and tan ones, or even brindle ones; Just as long as they are English!

ill at the tree now it's just an aggressive tree dog...lol

Dogs that are "Ill at the tree" today were tree fighters then. Called them what they were and still do.

Hunts too wide is now deep and alone. The guys that have never had to hunt without any kind of tracking device don't know how aggravating a "Hunts too wide" dog was.

The term “coon hunter” gets thrown around too much, most are just ignorant, childish, and jealous grown men with a hound dog.

I thought the term “establishing position” on a tree was one of the funniest terms I had ever heard when that term first started. They aren’t fighting, they are just establishing position. Lmbo
