SW WI coonhunting

I live and hunt SW WI. I haven't been able to get out for the last few weeks, I know right before the gun deer season (last week of Nov) it was pretty slow coonhunting. Since I haven't been able to get out, how has everyone else been doing?

I see, I just moved down to Benton about a year ago and before that I have been in Viroqua my whole life. It's a little different than what im used to down here. Just as long as there are still ringtails around and people willing to let me chase them on their land i'm happy.

Yeah I'll agree there are plenty of coon here and it's a great place to train dogs. Problem with me is I haven't ever had a finished dog to run with my young dogs and also I don't know a whole lot of people. I think this summer Im going to go for a drive and just stop and shake hands with people and ask permission. Seems to be about the only way.

I did go home a few times cuz I'll never pass up the opportunity to go with my dad or go hunting with the Red Fever Redbones, but the drive kills me. It would be nice to have about about 3 or 4 farms all in the same area so I could just go do a drop and go home when I have to turn in early.
