The All Grand debate

I hope I'm not digging up a dead horse here but I have not seen a discussion concerning all grand redbones. I'm just curious if enough 3 generation + all grand redbones exist to provide an opinion on their increased/decreased/indifferent level of success.

It was during my break from the competition world when the all grand walkers hit the scene with abundance so when I broke back into things they were everywhere. As I traveled around and owned a couple I realized it didn't mean much of anything "off paper", I grew to not expect anything more than the lineage may have provided otherwise. But I often wondered if early on it was a better indicator, when to line up a sire and dam to make an all grand litter they were most likely very linebred. Linebred I like, it provides to me a much higher likelihood of what to expect. You hear all the dang time how so-and-so dog was "papered" a GRNT, but I can't believe at this point it's really all that easy to paper a redbone anything, especially 3 generations of it.

Anyhow, since the pool is smaller, can anyone say it is more or less an indication of a better litter?

Not a Redbone man BUT, I have never put much into the all grand pedigrees.... Those titles are only as good as the man behind the dog. If you don't know the dog or the man they mean squat

ALL GRAND

Well on paper it looks real cool, and yes I do have an All Grand 3 gen dog, he's only a Nt ch. but still I feel that he could be Granded out.
But here's what I believe, lots of dogs that are Grand are made by the handlers, some honest and some really slick. So this ''All Grand'' pedigree can be good, but lots of times there may be a dog or two or more, that was made by the handlers. It's best to look at the whole picture and see if the dogs in a pedigree are from families of coondogs. in other words what were the littermates of each dog in the pedigree that was given a fair chance, did they make good coondogs.
Now I'm a senior --65 years old-- and can't hunt like I used to and so I don't push my dogs in the comp hunts. and I refuse to let just anyone take my dogs to try to win as I want them to win fairly. not by a slick handler. so bottom line these all grand pedigrees look great, but do some research before you decide to try the all grand band wagon--lol

Thanks Hersh. I'm not on the band wagon, I don't have one nor am I in the market for one in particular. As I mentioned, and Dennis, the all grand fluff in the walker world is just that, fluff, it made no difference with the ones I saw and couple I hunted, and in some cases they were friggin nuts. But of course I wouldn't turn down really good all grand redbone! 😀

But in the redbone world that pool is much smaller, so much so I would like to think it could carry a bit more merit, but maybe not.

One of the oldest and possibly the first all Grand redbone crosses was between Dual Grand Outlaw Billy The Kid x Dual Grand Nighty Nite Amber and it has produced several Grand Nite and Nite Champion dogs one of which has won Southern Redbone Days....Twice!
I know there have been others but I believe this was the first for many years after the cross between Outlaw Jesse James x Wright's Little Girl II which produced two Grand Nites ....Jesse James Jr and Outlaw Jack.

Thanks Shane.

Also around what Hersh mentions, I realize more than most many a dog is handler made, heck if you've been to enough hunts you've won a couple or more and later thought on that particular night all you had was "the best of the worst".

But I just have yet to see it as rampant in the redbone world. The odds are already tremendously against a redbone winning even a local hunt. I'm also not in the thick of things in my corner of the world, but still yet it's an uphill battle before you ever pull in the clubhouse if you're hauling a redbone.

I guess we come from different parts of the world Adam because I feel just the opposite. When I pull into a hunt with a Redbone I know I am the one to beat. haha

You must not have watched "Where the Red Fern Grows" as much as I did growing up. When I got into competition hunting I just assumed Redbones were supposed to win.

Those All Grand Pedigrees are good in my opinion. Especially when you got a couple of littermates from that cross that turn out to be good dogs and do well in the hunts like JJ Jr. and Outlaw Jack did. It definitely increases the probability of a future cross when breeding to one of these dogs if they are line bred and they have littermates that are good. I believe in breeding a family of coondogs to a family of coondogs. A dog's pedigree is only as good as it's weakest link. If there aren't any holes and that dog's pedigree is filled with big time winners, I think you have a much better chance of producing future winners. You are definitely stacking the odds. JMHO

Well Doc, redbones are outnumbered here at least 100 to 1, but since I started into them I guess it's now 2, so one could say the odds have doubled. And I'm glad to see you support my notion that an all-grand red pedigree should pack a little more merit than the easy to find ones in tri-color.

And, John, that's a great way to break it down, I agree that despite how big a winner one can be, a good and recognizable pedigree with a bunch of titles sure helps the "looks" of things.

I think in the end...the redbones that come from all Grand crosses will lift the breed higher. There are really only a handful of lines in the breed who can produce these types of crosses and most of the breeders behind them...and the making of them over the years had no interest in all Grand papers without the all Grand quality and ability to go along with those papers. The majority of the grands you see in any of these all Grand crosses have won big hunts ...and we're consistent winners with lengthy wins to their credit. Rarely do you see a dog from these breeders who was titled out in small hunts and then retired.
Sure...there are a few...but it's hard to be proud of a phony....and most of the dogs that make up all Grand pedigrees in the redbone breed have more than proven themselves...over and over for those who pay attention.
There will always be those who like to bash on all Grand pedigrees and any well bred cross that doesn't produce umpteen big winning Grand nites....but usually...the one saying titles don't mean anything and most titied dogs are made by slick handlers have never titled a dog...or produced a litter where several titled. Everyone is entitled to their opinion...but that doesn't mean everyones opinion is right...
Most good breeders who last very long don't breed for papers...they breed for ability and improvement...and personally I think most of these all Grand pedigreed dogs possess within them a collection of some of the best redbone dna ever mixed together and concentrated in one dog or line of dogs. Does that make it the one and only answer to the redbone puzzle? No...but it does make for a good place to start...or a good option to improve upon what you may already have. Sooner or later...certain breeders will get the right combination and concentration of dna in a dog or line of dogs that will dramatically increase the percentage of offspring that also carry and pass that on to their pups and the breed will make a quantum leap forward...and I bet that dog or line is all Grand or nearly all Grand where most if not all were big hunt winners when it happens....
Good luck everyone

Is anybody actually breeding to obtain an All Grand Pedigree? Or is eveyone just breeding ability to ability and if they get an All Grand Pedigree it just happens. It is so much easier with walker dogs because there are so many more Gr Nts. There are beginning to be a lot more Redbone Gr Nts so you are beginning to see a lot more in the pedigrees. But I don't know of anyone that is just breeding for an all Grand Pedigree now. I remember one Crazy guy that was going to try to a few years back but I don't think that it worked out that well for him although he might have contributed to quite a few of the Gr Nts in pedigrees today.

Richard, I haven't seen it, obviously it gets mentioned when it happens though. I hope it's as you said, ability to ability with the added perk when it's all grand.

There is just one problem when you are breeding Gr Nts X Gr Nts. The pups have to be capable of becoming Gr Nts or it is all for nothing. Sometimes people tend to forget that part of the equation. You can't just look behind, you have to also look ahead.

But in all fairness, I don't have anything capable of producing an All Grand Pedigree so I really shouldn't be commenting. But that has never stopped me before. I did patiently wait a few days however. I am probably just jealous.

Some of my dogs can throw an all Grand pedigree and some can't....but since most of my dogs are either out of Outlaw Billy the Kid or go back to him...and he was the first redbone to make Grand Nite who's parents and all 4 grand parents were grand nites, most of my dogs have all Grand or nearly all Grand pedigrees.
That type of pedigree doesn't guarantee anything....but competition winners stacked upon competition winners 3, 4, or more generations deep has to decrease many of the weak links that keep dogs from being able to win in competition...and if the breeder did a good job matching traits and ability it "should have" concentrated those things increasing the odds of it being passed on to a higher percentage of the offspring.
I don't breed just for all Grand pedigrees... but because most of my dogs are out of or go back to the dogs I started with 25 years ago and I usually keep.and title a few out of the litters I raise....the all Grand part is a by product of mine and others breeding programs who are focused on breeding...and then proving competition redbones.

What amazed me when I first saw G-Man's pedigree wasn't that it was 4 Generations of All Grand Nt.Ch., but that the dogs in this pedigree were some of the biggest winners in their time. There are a lot of Redbone Days Winners, Purina Outstanding Coonhounds, World Ch. Redbones, and Hall of Famers. In fact it has some of the best Redbones I've ever hunted with. Many don't know about Bear Creek Ruby, Red Oak Mike, Miller's Betsy, or Jenkins Crying Katie. These dogs were big time winners in the 80s and 90s and I promise you they would be big time winners today too. You would be lucky to own one as good as these 4 dogs. Ask John Graves, Ronnie Smith, Donnie Miller and Barry Jenkins about them sometime. These are once in a lifetime dogs stacked inside an all star pedigree. The best of Max Hunter/ Roger Shabel, Bill Wallock and myself, Alton Key, Shane Maxey, Brent Peel, John Biggert, Dan Biggert, Barry Jenkins, Donny Miller, John Graves, Ron Smith, Mike Wright, and Brad Messersmith.

Doc, I noticed that someone used frozen semen 3 times to produce G-Man. Weren't there any good Gr Nt dogs of today to use? Who is the breeder of G-Man? Who lined up all of those Grand Nites to get that pedigree? Are there any females with All Grand pedigrees to breed G-Man to now and produce more All Grands?

Mike Wright/Alton Key made that cross of Wrights Little Girl II on Outlaw JJ that produced the first 3 Gen All Grand Nite Ch. litter. From that cross came Outlaw JJ Jr.. That was a natural breeding. Then John Biggert bred Pepper Ann to Too the Max frozen semen to get an almost 3 Gen All Grand pedigree that produced Amber. Amber was owned by John Biggert and I"m not sure if he bred her back to Billy the Kid or if Roger Shabel and Shane bred her back to BTK frozen semen. Either way they had the same goal to produce the second 3 Gen All Grand pedigree litter and Shane kept a female named Billy Jean. He then bred BJ back to JJ Jr. frozen semen to get the first 4 Gen All Grand Nite Pedigree. So it takes a sire and mom both with 3 Gen Alll Grand Nite pedigrees to get the 4 Gen. Probably won't happen for a long time unless Shane breeds BJ back to a male pup out of G-Man x Breeze that would need to finish to Gr.Nt.Ch.. Then that offspring from BJ and this male would have to finish to Gr.Nt.Ch. to get to where we are now.

If G-Man is bred back to any of Shane's females or the females out of Aftershock x Bree and Jet x Bree it will produce more 3 Gen All Grand Nite litters. So far we have only bred Shane's Breeze female who is out of BTK x Bree and a littermate to Cherry Bomb. This produced a 3 Gen All Grand Nite pedigree after Breeze finished to Gr.Nt.Ch. this spring. BJ, her daughter Outlaw Annie (littermate to G owned by Lisa Key), and the pups by Breeze x G-Man are the only ones I know that can throw 4 Gen All Grand Nite pedigrees. Annie or the females from G x Breeze would have to be finished to Gr.Nt.Ch. to complete that one and they would have to be bred to a 3 Gen All Grand Nite Ch. male to get it done. i believe the Beyond Billy dog is a full littermate to BJ so that would work too on Annie if Annie were finished to Gr.Nt.Ch.

I don't know of any live current studs in the last few years before G-Man that could produce those 3 Gen All Grand Nt. pedigrees. They either weren't finished to Gr.Nt.Ch. themselves, or one of their grandparents weren't finished to Gr.Nt.Ch. The other thing I mentioned above, is that almost every dog in this pedigree was a big time winner. BJ was the only one that wasn't really pushed in the big hunts. I think it would be way easier to just breed Gr.Nt.Ch. to Gr.Nt.Ch. without any proven big hunt wins just to produce an All Gr.Nt.Ch. pedigree. But when you have a pedigree filled with proven big hunt winners I think it means a lot. I added it up on another post under the G-Man stud thread and I believe there were around 12 Redbone Days Champion Wins, 2 Purina Outstanding Coonhound Overall Winners, 8 Purina Outstanding Redbone Breed Wins, 10 Hall of Famers, and at least 10 that made it to the World Hunt Finals. I'm serious when I say most people would be happy to own any one of the dogs in this pedigree once in their lifetime.

Don't Chad Cartwright's Rocky X Tammy pups have a 3 gen All Grand pedigree? Those are some pretty nice dogs in their pedigree also. I have actually hunted with most of them. I wasn't around when those frozen semen sires were winning. Won't those pups be capaple of producing a 4 gen All Grand pedigree "if" they finish to Gr Nt.

Aren't there any others? Come on now, don't be bashful. It seems like "All Grand Pedigree" is something to be ashamed of now.

What about the Little T X Goose pups that Crazy guy just had? Won't they have a 3-gen All Grand pedigree as soon as he gets another win on Goose? Or is that a top secret? I have hunted with most of the dogs in that pedigree and I really like it too.

I think John Dell and Randy Ficken have had dogs that can reproduce a 3 generation pedigree before G-Man came on the seen. I believe John Biggert also has had a couple that can reproduce a 3 generation pedigree and I think there are a few others!!!

There have been quite a few crosses made in the past 5 years that could produce a 3 generation all Grand if any of the offspring from those crosses were to finish out to Grand nite Champion..... but very few have done that...yet.
G Man is actually a fourth generation all grand...his mother Billy Jean was a true 3 generation all Grand and I believe the first and only redbone female who is capable of producing a four generation all Grand litter....but there are few if any males that she could be bred to in order to accomplish that. The cross on Outlaw JJ jr semen at the time was the only option to produce a 4 generation all Grand litter...and there is no more semen left on him. Maybe someday another will emerge...but it would have to have traits and ability that I feel would be a good match for me to breed her to him....I wouldn't do it just because of his papers
