GENE HICKS,PUT THE LAST WIN ON 6 TIME ALBERT

ANYONE CAN DOUBT THIS FINE LINE OF HOUNDS ALL THEY WANT,BUT IF YOU HAVE HAD THE RIGHT KIND ON THE END OF YOUR LEASH. ( YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT)

6 TIME ,MAKES SIX GENERATIONS OF GRNDNTCH,S
DONT KNOW ABOUT YALL,BUT I FIND THAT IMPRESSIVE.

AS MY LIL ROUND INDIAN BUDDY SAYS ( CONSISTENCY )
That is how Mitch defines the ALBERT line.


Congratulations MR GENE HICKS, KICKING TOWARD 70 YRS OLD AND STILL HUNTS MORE THAN MOST.

A TRUE DIE IN THE WOOL BLACK AND TAN MAN.
AT HIS AGE ,HE STILL WONT LISTEN TO ANYBODY BADMOUTH A BNT.

The only difference in the way Molly and 6 Time are bred is.
6 TIME IS OUTTA RYDER,3 TIMES SON.

MOLLY IS STRAIGHT OUTTA 3 TIME INSTEAD OF RYDER.
THEY HAVE THE SAME MOTHER.

Gene

I don't know that this has been done before, at least with B & T's? Gene was hunting Flash the first time we hunted back in the 60's, then there was Mingo, Bandit and the last time Mitch was hunting Albert 11. A lot of water under the bridge since then...Gene and Mitch have kept their black dogs in the for front for sure.

That's having a goal and knowing what you want in your dogs. That is something special to have had the run gene has had. Him and Mitch like there dogs and take pride in them. He's gained respect from a couple of of boys down that way he's took under his arm lol. Must be nice to live that close too a real black an tan man.

Todd - If you get a chance ask Gene about a female Sniper has fairly close in his pedigree...NtCh Tennessee Princess Albert. I know nothing about her and have always wondered if that isn't where he might get a little of his tracking ability.

I didnt know SNIPER was packing that fine ALBERT blood.
Just goes to show ya,another fine hound ,touched with some Albert blood as many are in the breed.
