I have one out of Nothern Blue Son. He is a nice dog all around except he is to hot nosed for the hot dry summers here. Up north or in swamp he would be a top hound that handles like a dream.
I had a pup a few years back out of Bullet II. He was all I would want in a hound for his age but I had to sell him.
The old Smokey River hounds I have seen are good cold nose dogs and accurate but a little slow for comp.
I got a male out of Son.. He's not a cold noised hound that boo hoos around . He can work a mediocre to bad track and get it going in a fair amount of time. He's really not a hot noised dog. Anyway he suites me just fine.. My bitch is Spanky and Rambo, I'm gonna cross her to Blue Iron Brummy this spring , Then next spring back to my male.. I'm gonna keep a pup or 2 out of each cross and then breed half brother and half sister.... Who knows what that will turn in to, but I'm gonna give it a try.
