I remember judging a well known Gr. Nt. stud dog in a summer hunt . He had 2600 circle points at end of hunt. I would have minused him for sure but that rascal was picking the biggest most dense foilage trees in the woods. I believe he had been trained to pick the big ones. I dont believe he ever struck a legitimate coon track much less treed one. My neck hurt by the end of the night. Thats been many years ago!! Still makes me chuckle.
Ferrari was telling me once about a dog he had before gold..I don't remember its name and it was before the dogs he is known for.... anyway it was a big joke about how many circle points it could rack up in a nights hunt.......and almost never had the actual coon. Just from listening (I wasn't there) my guess was the dog almost always ran tracks backwards and the first tree on the back track was a feeder tree of some sort, water oak ect. or the den.
I had one just like it years and years ago, tracks it MIGHT have been 10% right, but that sucker could slam every lay up coon in the woods :/ and have it every time. Im positive it was because it ran the tracks backwards. I sold it and they won quite a bit of PKC money with it.
