Male's Reproducers List Criteria

Since the sport of coon hunting has been evolving over the last decade on how dogs are able to be advertised so easily and freely on social media platforms.

Should we maybe change the needed criteria to make the current reproducing list to 50 pups needed out of a stud dog to make the list?

So many folks using different hounds today that by the time most of them hit the 100 puppy mark they're 7 or 8+ years old and about dead or they've lost their fertility rate some what.

At 100 pups the repeatability is not there.
Let alone 50. People pump up the numbers, as it is by getting them in the right hands. I look at who made them night Champions also, the very elite pedigreed dogs will draw the top dog men. I bred cattle to young bulls with 3000 or more offspring, amazing how that wasn't enough of a cross section , only to find out I ended up with average calves.

I don’t put a lot of stock in the current reproducers list at all. Most of the time it’s a the owner and his cronies breeding just enough females to get a hundred pups and dragging them around locally to get some of that junk titled out. I don’t even know if some of them could actually even tree a coon alone honestly.
