Any coon hunters on this site?

I've done it before, pretty good time with some friends and good dogs. There's so many raccoons running around the rivers here it wears you out pretty bad keeping up with the dogs. Wasn't real impressed with eating them though. We had them BBQ'd and they were pretty greasy and gamey tasting to me, but you can put enough BBQ sauce on anything to make it taste decent.

Iv never done it with dogs but we used to just drive around the orchards with the 4 wheeler and .17hmr and smoke them and fox. Once we spoted eyes we would kill the lights hop off and use a tree for a rest and use the primos spotlight mounted on the scope they never knew what hit em. Then there's also the old fashioned car lol

I used to do it with my friend and his dad. They had an awesome pack of dogs. One was a Grand Night Champion for two or three years.

The car works very well. My brother in law and myself have been dropping them on the banks of the lake we night fish all the time. Couple of possom as well. The only time I've ever been with the dogs, was back when I was about ten years old. I had the best time ever running through the woods following them dogs. Once the wife and I sell this miserable condo, we're getting two red bones. Once theyre trained my son should be old enough to go hunt with us.

closest i ever came to coon hunting was when i almost popped one while i was bow hunting

i feel old...............we used to have Mules and thats how we would follow the dogs. good times..

I went coon hunting once 47 years ago.

Went out last night with an old buddy of mine and we ran his dogs. Got eight coons over the course of the evening. I can't wait to get my dogs, and start training them up. Hopefully this won't interfere with my fishing too much. I mean I live to fish, but this is definately a close second, with bow hunting deer now falling in third.

Same here but my close 2nd is coyote hunting then deer but now I'm into ice fishing so who knows now. Training dogs is a blast I think frustrating at times but a ton of fun and rewarding when they click and start performing how u want. I haven't trained any dogs for coon just pheasants and rabbits its not to time consuming I don't think I have a few books on it and they recomend only training for 20minutes twice a day because like kids puppies get bored. I went that route an I had a show bread cocker spanial pointing,retrieving pheasents in less then a week my wiem took a little longer but that dogs CRAZY!
