JUST THE OPPOSITE
wild willie says do just the opposite.. lead you dog away from the tree about 30 yards and just stand there and ignore the dog. Now hopefully the dog wants to get back to the tree and is barking wanting to get back to the tree. If she is let her go in to the tree and praise her for barking. If she is not barking when you are standing about 30 yards from the tree, leave the are and then release your hound to find another coon. You make it sound like her reward is the dead coon shot out of the tree , the reward should be you praising the hound letting her know she did right. Good hounds don't need that many coon shot out to them , leave some to run again. Wild Willie' Way is about trying to figure out how to put the want in the dog. What does it take so the dog wants to do it , not having to force a dog to do something. Many different ways to train a hound.
