I've been doing real good. I was medically retired from the Army, guess you can say when things go boom things go bad lol! I'm back up here in kokomo now and ready for this weather to break like you! Hope that knee isn't to bad, I'm gonna have to come up for a hunt in those blueberry woods ya took me to last time, man those we good lol! Our rqe is the 15th out of our new club house in peru. Depending on how things work out I may turn one loose for it bbut that's weather dependent. Best wishes and hope ya have a speedy recovery.

Larry

You had a dog back in the mid 90's, I think you called him Bad Eye. I also believe he was a older dog at that time? What was he out of? We drew out together at English Days and you guided that year.

Hay there BlackFlag..I'll have to load the old ford and see if one of these pot lickers of mine can thin them down a bit when this weather breaks.....................

Posted by blackflagginit on 03-05-2014 09:38 PM:

Ive hunted lots of dogs, from lots of bloodlines, Bingo IMO is the one dog (at the very least the one commen thread) that took English from ho hum to hot ****. not only in performance, but in reproducers as well. the % of not only solid preformers, but preformers that reproduced the same, is the stuff legends are made of.

Bad Eye

I liked that hound! I liked the cross on Cloud to get Ann and probably the one I liked best was Just Right and Sandy!

Scott...Your telling our age...Ha...Cloud/Ann cross must have been about 80 or 81...That coss gave me the JR dog that really was a joy to own..He was without a dought a one man dog and a real friend giving you all he had everytime....good memories....Thanks Larry...

Posted by blackflagginit on 03-09-2014 07:40 PM:

speaking of age.........I remember my first English dogs. one was from a male who was a littermate to Tenbrooks Blue Queen...the other came right out of Kelly Stagners barn.......I think out of spike ll.

I can also remember when Nick Olster bred his brandy female to Timberstar Buck :/

Posted by Breezy on 03-12-2014 05:02 PM:

Larry, Here is a video of my friends pup out of Gun and Lady, Cry Baby. Dan Clodfelter owns her. He wanted me to post them to u can see her progress. ........ Joe Brzezinski

Posted by Breezy on 03-12-2014 05:05 PM:

Here is a pic of her treeing. Dan is having a blast with her and he plans on pushing her hard in the hunts. I'm looking forward to my pups out of Ivy and Gun. They should make some nice coonhounds. Thank you for your hospitality during my visit while getting Ivy bred�... Joe B, Wisconsin

Posted by blackflagginit on 03-12-2014 10:37 PM:

Larry,

was it Cloud or JR you were telling me you could handle without a leash.......

I remember you saying something about it when I had Loose at AO...but cant remember what dog you said..

from what I have seen from the Thunder dogs who have been here, building on that buddy relationship is the key to bringing out there best.

though not a true "thunder" dog, Loose did carry thunder blood. He always preformed his best when I was handling, though he won hunts under several handlers.

Posted by bloody creek on 03-12-2014 11:35 PM:

I have one of those kind of " Thunder" hounds at my house, have not had to lead him out of the woods sense he turned 1 year old.... 10 yards from a tree with a coon in it and you can cut him any direction and he is not coming back to the same tree.... To many people breed for things that dont make it a pleasure to hunt these hounds are fun and also tree real coons.. Thanks again for mine Larry.. He has became my buddy too..

Thanks Travis, As I've said before everytime your up there in the winners circle collecting that hardware with Bawl there is a little bit of me with you....I just love reading and hearing about these Thunder Hounds...Keep it up Buddy see you at e-days.....Larry

Thanks Joe, Breezy looks just like the rest of that great cross...We were a few days off from making that cross again the third time this year but did breed her full Gr Nt sister Yesterday.....Larry

Mr. Wilcox I just wanted to say I admire what you've done for the english breed over the years. You've created your own line of great dogs. And I think that is awesome. I am a huge fan of the Wilcox blood. I have a young male out of gun and a all grand horn female. He's 11 months old and doing pretty good. If it wasn't for the harsh winter and not gettiing to hunt as much as I would have liked to I think he would be treeing his own by now. He is a awesome hound, listens well and has alot of sense.Along with a huge mouth. Just wanted to say thanks, keep up the good work. And I hope to meet you one day.
