Just as Rneil said driving around works great,but do not put the dog on the deer then shock him it confuses the crap out of them,mark the line and wait for the dog to find it(then fry em)
I have broke several dogs over your way,hobet strip,chief logan state park etc.Go ask James Benny on top of cow creek mountian for permission to drive his strip at night,deer and rabbits are every where.

Good advice! I have only had one that I could not break. Every now and then, you get one that prefers to run deer. The one I had would lick the deer breaking scent like it was candy and would leave a hot rabbit to switch off on an older deer track. I am glad he is gone! Don't give up after just two sessions - especially if he had gotten away with deer running in the past. Don't wait too long between sessions if possible. Three or four sessions in as many days seem to do more good than twice that many over the course of several months (or even weeks)! NIP IT IN THE BUD! Good luck!
just like you have been told already lay the electric to him you got him at the right age the younger the better i had one that i was about to give up on the last time n that was 4 years ago i was running at night n my coon buster light has a spot light on it i was walking through this old strip n shined my spot n see a set of EYES n i walked my hound in the direction the eyes were n never took my spot off the deer it finally ran when i got bout 40 yards from it i kept walking with the dog right beside me i had my e collors set on 6 shure enuf he hit the deer track i let him go till he opened up on the deer n i set down on the transmitter on 6 i shocked him all the way back to me n it was about the 10th time i had done this like i said before that was 4 years ago n he wont even act like he is interested in a deer now i even hunt him up in Ritchie cnty where theres deer everywhere i dont even use a collar on him now i would say he is deer broke finally he is a nice 14 !/2 in blk n tan hound one of my fav hounds hope this helps just dont give up yet jb
