Or the Hound that trees the actual coon track he or she started. There is a differents. Whats your take on this thread. Personally I want a Patch dog, with lots of smarts. I have always thought the dog that trees the coon he or she starts is the most accurate, consistentlly. I learned this from a one year old Female, she was off Williams Chopper son of 1970 World Champion Gann's Finisher. She would tree a coon and I would shoot it out to her, after the coon was on the ground, she would take off back from the direction the coon she had just treed came from. Then either become treed or take another track she crossed and tree it and have a coon or den tree. Most always the first tree she made had a coon. This really got me thinking what was happening,she done this often that kill season.

If a dog strikes a coon fifty yards in the woods stick with that track an tree it but if their is no track close then get deep an find one. But I dont wanna be able to turn a dog loose behind a dog that has gotten deep an tree coons close that the dog deep past up

I want my dog to strike and tree the FIRST track he comes across. I don't want to see him again until I pull him off a tree. If it takes 50 yards or 2 miles I want him hooked with a coon.

If I had a dog like that, he'd have a big frickin hole in his head.

I've lived and hunted in Ohio, Kentucky, Minnesota, and Nebraska. And I've heard the same song in every state. And in every state there were guys who got in trouble for dogs going too far and it was just as difficult to get good permission.

These types of dogs make landowners mad and we lose respect in the community for it.

I have had my butt chewed out more than once for going after my dogs. They didn't hunt that deep, It's was usually in late january when casing an bore coon. But I also have had land owners to give a ride back to where I turn lose. I all ways talk back to them nice no matter what since i am in the worng with no permission. Some have gave me permission and told me of other
land they own and told me to hunt there.

Give me a patch dog any day. I don't want a dog that leaves the country and ends up 5 miles down the road and while your walking to it, see 3 or 4 coon sitting in trees that they blew by on their way to tree the one you hope they have, in the next county. We don't own tracking collars, all our dogs hunt medium and check in about every 20 minutes, unless they run across a track. After checking in, they go another direction and hunt that area. This is what i like and what I breed for, simple and easy.

I expect my dogs to tree every coon in the woods! I expect every coon to go up a tree. I expect my dog to hunt close in small woods but get deep in in the big woods! I also expect my dog to come every time i call, and never even think of running anything but a coon!!! I "expect" perfection!!
I know a lot of people here have those kinda dogs and one day maybe i could somehow acquire one for myself!!!
I guess i am just stuck with my unpredictable dogs that could possibly do anything at anytime. But, what fun would it be if my dogs always did what was expected of them!

As I have gotten older I have learned that I would rather tree three coon in the first 30 minutes then I would walk 30 minutes to the fiest tree. Give me the patch woods dog that trees all of the coon in the patch instead ole Mile or More that you have to wait at the truck until he trees to see if you need to drive to get closer.

I like both and I've owned and won with both. I've got one now that will tree coons around other hounds and on the way to the deeeep hunter......

But long story short the deep hunter is what I like. You can take them anywere accross the country and they do he same . Through the country with a coon can and does win anywhere.

Last 2 world champs are deeep and lonely style dogs

People have to understand before they go to baggin on others that different areas require different style dogs. Some areas patch dogs are going to shine and other places the go yonder dogs will.

In a lot of areas down here you would go a lot of nights without getting struck if youre dog won't go as far as it takes. I don't want a dog that blows out of the country passing up tracks, but he dang sure better be willing to go as far as it takes. I like a dog that starts hunting when unsnapped and hunts at a steady medium pace in one general direction (the direction i point him).
