Dogs first night running coons
« on: November 26, 2012, 10:49:33 PM »
I took my dog out for the first time to actually run some real coons. Been working with her all summer with artificial scents.

She tracked her first scents and BOOM, 2 coons up one tree!

SWEET! I grew up near Issaquah and had a pic of 14 coons off our back porch. Did you have to go far to find them?

No I can stay pretty close. I made good with a bunch of ranchers over the summer, so I have access to lots of land

Nice, I went out tonight with no luck. I'd leave a few around to chase another day, im getting to the point I dont wanna kill em because there's to few around.

Curious, what brand scents did you use? Grawes has been the bestfor me

I have only tried the Cabela's training scent. Worked our first night actually looking for them. Now I have a couple of training hides. I didnt have boards big enough to do a full body layout, now I am ready for it. I will try again tonight if the rain lets up some.
