I have ran against him 3-4 times. When he was younger he ran 7-8 on speed, probably a 7 on hunt. Always stayed busy. He had really good line control and good Check work. Nice hound think he's a Tank bred hound.

Bad Boy is a very solid hound, I'd say his best traits are a great nose and all around rabbit smarts. Ran with and against him a bunch.

Everyone here has gave a very accurate description of him. Not the flashiest hound in the world but very clean running with an excellant nose that jumps rabbits well with excellant close check work. When i got into trialing Ryan and Tom Ware let him stay with me and i handled him for 5 wins as a champion to finish him to grand rather quickly. I then became half owners with Tom. Bad Boy stayed with me to run and gun with while training younger hounds. (One of which is HBCH PCH Rocky Ridge Method To Mayhem) Bad Boy has been with Josh Ware and Cody Rucker for a few years now doing the same thing. He never stays home when they go gunnen i can assure you of that!

I was very proud to see him get second place at the pp worlds last year! I always felt he didn't get the credit he deserved because he always had to take a backseat to his older brother Rocky Ridge Pardon My Dust. LOL I think Bad Boy kinda got the last laugh cause Dusty got a 3rd in the hunting beagle worlds y in 2003 i beleive was the year.

I have a one year old grand-daughter out of the Bad Boy Line of dogs and she is an awesome dog, she can be solo'd or run with company. We are looking forward to her first gun season.

Come Run with her if you like,
Fred

Josh and I have had Badboy for about 5 years now or close to it Badboy is everything these guys have stated above he has placed in some big hunts and even won a few state hunts and the benefit hunt. He placed second in the junior division on the Black Gold challenge series. But if anyone would be interested in watching Badboy run or would like to kno something about him josh or I would be more than glad to go run or talk with u. Even at almost 10 Badboy will speak for himself out running. I would like to thank all of you on the kind words about Badboy Josh and I have been running him since we where 14 and 15 in our eyes theres almost nothing better lol.
