My question is how many of your dogs have made nitech, or grand nitech??

I am curious, because short of seeing your adds on here and in the bluebooks, I have never heard of your dogs, or anybodyhunting them, It may be a geological thing, me being in MS, and you way over there on the east coast, anyway, I am looking into adding something into my line, and am trying to do a little research before I do, thanks in advance for your reply.

KenBev, on the females pedigree the Roberts dogs, Ben roberts and the richardsons lived not to far from me. Hard pleasure hunters that kept nice hounds. The Bitsey female from heck and fly was nice cross. Cottonwoods flys bottom side was Vaughns Bluejack I believe.

I don't think that GRNITECH or NITCH makes a coonhound anymore of a coonhound. I bought a gyp off of Ken last June and I have to say that she is doing very well. I'm very pleased with her and she's just shy of a year old. By the way Ken I think she is definitely coming into heat at this time (I'm sure you remember my last phone call).

Anyhow, my gyp comes from cross between Blue VIII and Star. Neither of these hounds are titled (at least not on my gyp's pedigree). But my gyp is coming along very well. She has some awesome tracking and trailing ability... but she still needs some work on staying at the tree - but she will do it. Of course we all know that this takes time, practice and patience.

But when it comes to titles, I don't think it really matters. Either a coonhound has it, or it doesn't. And no paper is going to make a real difference as to what a hound can do out in the woods. I don't know what I think about nite hunts. I bought Bailey to mainly pleasure hunt with her, but I know that if I ever decided to put her in the hunts later that she would do well based upon the good signs she is showing me now. By the way she already has 50 points towards her CH degree... and she's only been in two shows.

But I'm not here to brag. I'm not starting anything either. I guess what I'm trying to say Mulebarn is that I don't think one can go wrong if breeding into Ken's stock - title or not. I did research on Ken before I bought my gyp, and I found out that he is a very experienced breeder that knows what is going on. He is also a very honest man as well! Eventually I plan on breeding this gyp once she's older, and when I do I know that I could go back to Ken - that's is if he'll have me . But I'm not concerned whether or not a stud has tiles, or if the litter is perfomanced... I'm concerned if the cross is going to be good, and ultimately if the pair has the coonhound sense that we all look for - title or not!

That's just my friendly opinion... and I'm trying to keep it enjoyable!

Mark

Mule breath I wasn't going to stoop to your level cause this is a nice thread for friends , but I for one am tired of you running your mouth so load up the best you got and come on down I will be glad to show you what a dog is Yes I have a titled hound in my signature also but will tell you I don't put a lick of stock in titles other than the HTX .By the way the one in mine and Texhogs signature all go back to heavy Vaughn and no we are not advertising them they are all 3 passed away one is the father to the other 2 full brothers different litters. So get off the young boy and his young hound and come see what is out there. I would tell ya but you would just want to argue about it get a life and go hunting instead of getting on here and hunting an arguement.

Its kinda like the pot calling the kettle black, you saying youre not worried about titles, then advertising two titled dogs in your signature line.

prefer to win my trophies in January and February while carrying a .22 .... Not in July with bugs, snakes and poison ivy... That is why I have the dog that I have and may be bringing one of Ken's gyps in soon.. I have had several from Ken in the past. He nor his breeding need my endorsement, they stand on their own merritt for close to 35 years. Same goes for cousin Roy !!! NUFF SAID !! Now lets all get back to the bussiness at hand and talk BLUE DOG TALK !!!! YAHOO !!!!!!!!!!!

I wasnt trying to direct anything at you, Kenbev, I was asking if you had any winners out of your hounds, because I hadnt heard of any, and I havent heard of any of your hounds being scattered out across the country.

Since you decline to answer my question, I will venture to say that there are none from your stock. I dont think any less of them for it, but a simple no would have worked fine instead of calling in your little "followers".

Does anybody out there have a HEAVY Vaughn bred dog, or know of one that is WINNING or throwing some WINNERS??

P.M. me if you do, so these puppy sellers on here wont get all huffy anymore about ruining their thread.


I`ll make that my last post on your precious thread, now all of yall can get back in the circle.

You want to know of some vaughn blooded winners how about
Ron and Larry Honecutt in Myrtle Missouri you better have your ducks in a row when you go to hunt with them besides that they have had plenty of titled dogs and their stock came from Jess Rodgers Does the name Rodgers little mack ring a bell how about Rodgers Bowser, Preacher who died at Johnny Watsons house, all titled dogs. Dont crack on Vaughn blood their is still some good dogs out there besides that if you are leading a blue dog around he/she has vaughn blood in it.

I just want to say that there are a lot of Vaughn blooded dogs that can win hunts but I beleive that most are owned by coon hunters and not title hunters
Thanks to all who are trying to preserve this line so it will be here for future generations of hound followers regardless of what they hunt.

Yes, Star is my dog. I have about four or five pups spoken for. She is due in two weeks. I will start booking them when they are three weeks old. She raised 11 last year... If you want one, let me know....
