Dog A - 10 times turned loose. 10 single coons seen . Treed a coon every drop. 7 of those coons were anywhere from about 200 yards to half a mile away. 3 of those coons were treed between 1 mile to 1.25 miles away. Now of those 3 coons that were that deep 2 of those times you made it home about 4 AM. 1 of those, you made it home at 6 AM and spent 2 hours dealing with a mad landowner and the sheriff due to where the dog ended up.


Dog B - 10 times turned loose. 5 single coons seen. Treed a coon 5 of those 10 drops. The other 5 drops the dog just hunted out a little and came back to you and didnt strike and you either walked deeper in with the dog or drove to a different spot. Never made it home later than 11 PM.

Other than this dog dogs are identical in every way. Which dog would you prefer ?

I'm old, well older and wiser. Give me dog B. I'd rather look at a few bald tree's then have to walk that far and deal with crap. Sometime's you just have to sit back and enjoy the music. :O)

When I cut one. I don't expect to see one till its treed or I have to pull somewhere to get it. Usually before ones went much over a mile. I've pulled somewhere closer or to get it You don't tree any on our wma land here with B. They been dead a couple months already.I'll take an A if you know where one is cheap.

I've had both and I'll take dog B over dog A.

Dog B you can hunt almost anywhere. They come back in and you move.

There are limited places where you can hunt dog A. If the coons are not moving and a small block they blow right through, a big block around here and you may have to wait until they come out. I lost one 11 days before he made it out of the Sheep Ridge Wilderness in the Croatan National Forest, many dogs never make it out (this is a pocosin swamp)
