when I think of hunting dogs I think of dogs that can work together and acheive more more than a single dog, wolves have proven that a pack is better then solo, everbody seems to want a dog that only trees by itself now, the best doesn't win now it's the dog that babbles first and whips the other dogs off of the tree, dog hunters call it adjusting for position coonhunters call it fighting.

Bottom line is......
Folks can't admit to being beat by track speed so they breed/train for them " SOLO " dogs.
I'd sure like to see the nite hunts require the dogs to run the same track like the beaglers do.

WHY JUST HALF, WHY NOT TRY TO OWN A DOG THAT CAN DOMINATE THE CAST WHILE STAYING WITH THEM? THE WAY THAT I SEE IT IS THAT PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO HUNT DOGS WITH THE STILE THAT CURS HAVE BEEN KNOWN FOR EXCEPT HUNTING HARDER.

All things being equal, I agree.

Problem is, that all things arent equal. The odds of drawing out with 4 competent broke coondogs is slim to zero.

In the nite hunt game, half the battle is just staying away from the trouble the other 3 retards you turned loose with are finding.

IMHO.

Dog of a different color

I 've hunted all colors of hounds . I've been blessed to have some real good dogs of every color. But, to be honest I've never had a Walker dog that I could say was a real coon hound. Now I know that there are and have been some good Walkers but none have ever crossed my path.

I grew up seeing blueticks turn out the best. Walkers were to tree happy. The old boy I hunted as a kid with was a bluetick fan because of it. Thirty years later I talked to him. He said the best dogs he ever saw go were walkers. I couldn't believe it. I'm still waiting to see a good straight walker impress me.
