Redbone History

Anyone hear of Melton's Red Fire Ball or Jim's Peckerwood Sadie?

Melton's Red Fireball is somewhat of a legend and you will see him on a lot of pedigrees.Offspring from him have done well down through the years as is noted in some of the pedigrees of today's hounds.

Rooster-

good ole hound- schmucked by a train.

I have a 6 yr old male out of Fire ball. I just pleasure hunt him but wouldn't trade him for nothing

joe who got hit by a train rooster if so i was wondering why a dual grand out of fireball only had 98 pups

If my memory serves-

correct, Rooster was killed by a train. You'd have to confirm that with Joe Pipkins. Lots of Dual Grand Redbones went to their grave with under 100 pups. I don't remember Rooster ever been pimped in the mags much. You don't brag, you don't get breedings.

That's why I never read ads to pick a stud hound and never breed to a hound I never saw with my own eyes. Unless he's owned by a man whose judgement I personally trust. And I NEVER take another man's word on a hound- good or bad. I'd rather breed to a set of papers than that.
