In the past 45+ years, two dogs standout as reproducers; Hardtime Speck and Hillbilly Mac. Tighter mouthed, STRAIGT, get treed, have the meat. With that blood fading away, I'm looking at Black and Tans and the Whitaker's Smokey blood. I like what I see from this better than anything since Speck and Mac. The Whitakers Smokey III dog that I recently got reminds me of the Speck and Mac dogs, with a different hide color.
My first Gr. Nite Ch. was never in a hunt, and never registered, until I got him. But, he was known by the local furbuyers.
Whether it's coonhunting, or anything else, put more trust in what you SEE than what you hear or read!!!
We need to focus on the type and ABILITY of hounds that we enjoy hunting. Impressing others + 1.00 will get you a McDonald's coffee. Focus on what you like! If others don't like the same thing, or don't care, so be it!!!!
"Whether its coonhunting or anything else, put more trust in what you SEE than what you hear or read".
This is advise that you shouldn't ignore if you are serious about upgrading the ability level of what you are hunting.
I was fortunate to be able to hunt with alot of the LEGENDs that people brag about as being superior dogs of the past and are trying to reproduce. Most were just nice dogs that had a SUPERIOR promoter trying to make money off of them. Ken Risley
