Any advice or feelings on how to pick the best pup from a litter just from looks or actions from experiences

and take the one that picks you.

I did it the first time I went to Red Blakesley's, she turned out to be a good one. My Dad did it in the yard of Ed and Bobby Kuester's Limber Lost Kennel and his also turned out to be more then he dreamed.

If you think about it, how will you ever know if it was "the best one?" I mean unless you hunt everyone of them together EVERY TURNOUT, you will never know. Tracks are different, days are different and with whats being bred today I'm not sure you can measure them anymore. I always wonder if the TOC winner could win the best out of 5 hunts against the others, Or was it just their lucky night??

And remember, it doesn't have to be the best, it just has to please you.

That’s the stuff I wanted to hear. The old saying every dog has his day is definitely true in every aspect of life. A man just hates to not pick that one pup that would really stand out lol
