Back off a couple of nights, then take him back out. If he trees another, just pull him off and send him on. Sometimes I think the weather plays a big part on what scent is strongest on the ground.

went through this with a young redbone male, was kicking butt hard on coon then switched to grinners, took a shock collar, and some good juice to straighten out that problem! i busted his ass for treeing one twice in a row, then that knucklehead had the gall to catch one on the ground and bring it to me! i broke him of that real quick! the more stubborn they are the more juice it takes, but it works! they realize quick that coon means praising and grinners means ouchy ouch big time! just my opinion, hope this helps! thanks Jeff Eaves for letting me borrow your shock collars! they do wonders!

mtn valley hank, i have heard knockem out and wear him out with it but i heard just snap the dog up and be firm and take him from the tree. yes i have knocked them out and wore him out ,a gentleman explained it to me today in a way that made sence.


coondawg hunter, cant use a shock collar on him ,when he was young i lived on the lake and had to put a bark breaker on him and he figured it out ,if i put one on him and try to hunt he will hunt but wont bark a lick.

This is what I do too. My male is so straight that the other night a buddy of mine saw a possum and wanted to shoot it out. Right as he shot my male ran up to us and heard the shot and heard something hit thae ground. Since he wasn't tied back he knows this means go get it. But when he ran in close he got one whiff of it and turned around and ran off to go hunt. He used to tree possums so it works good. But if you can't use a shock collar that won't work. I definitely wouldn't shoot it out to the dog though.
