had some pics on computer was getting for bill so figured would post while going through it.

ive only hunted with oliver couple times and blew me away each time. been around him many other times around yard and hes got manners that many other hard going dogs dont have. seen him go in two different extremes of weather and hunting terrains and made no difference hunted like a machine. handles like a dream, but thats no accident bill works hard with the dogs. strikes out of box awesome as well. first time seen him go had just bred my female couple hours before and being in box next to her had no effect, no barking or acting dumb. could care less even when dog in heat ran and treed just sat in box waiting turn. then hunted hard and treed coon. ive hunted with a lot of nice comp and pleasure dogs but oliver top of the food chain of dogs ive seen go. him and bill make good team and is combination of good breeding and a lot of hard work. bill is good friend but i would say same things if worst enemy owned dog.

old boy on some coon.




only reason for lead on dog is shot coon out, wanted to make sure we didnt go for 100ft slide down hill. LOL.

You can go to the far reaches of the earth and not find any better or consistent than Oliver. This dog does the same thing every time you cut him.

He doesn't go 1000 yards to strike. He takes the tracks as he comes to them and finishes with a coon in tree.

Bill doesn't advertise him but he is a worthy dog to breed to. He's just the right kind. Thanks Bill for taking me hunting with him.

I was just researching the same info. His full ped. is on page 158 of the 2011 album. He's got Hammering Cowboy Bill, set em up Ace, Charlie's Pride and Hobie in there. That's all in 3 generations. That is some good "old time" blood. He's directly off two gr ch's.
