It seem like all we are treeing is den trees this month, what is the reason for that?

Same thing here for me Harley. These danged coon are acting like it is mid December. I'm starting to think the normal cycle is off by about three weeks.

The coon are moving early around here, found it's best to turn loose right after dark. They are rutting around here, we've been seeing more than one in the trees.

Dens are part of it , I do like to see a dog cut more of them off before they can slip to a den than not ... just one of those things that make you feel good about the talent of your dog .

I've climbed alot of dens to check , not as many i used to but it's kinda cool to see em' balled up in there or find a litter of babies in one.

I don't think backtracking is something that dens indicate ... the same dog would still backtrack in the summer and it just aint a trait that you see much anymore .... that's an old basset hound trait , lol.

I think too manys dens or treeing on persimmon , hackberry or just those toilet trees is from a dog being trained on artificial coon urine scent and a soft hearted owner that won't correct the habit early on for fear or ruining a dog or aint honest with themselves.

Not saying anything about the thread starter's dog .. but just on the topic in general
