Backyard, front yard, side yard, behind the barn or out of the kitchen, a grand nite still isn't a joke to me nor should it be to any "working stiff" who does it predominantly on his own, but that is ONLY without the aid of a heavy pencil. Of course a win at a bigger hunt is a huge plus and plays a major role on studs and dams for me as well. But let's look at another angle on that point. I'll use myself, if I owned a world beater, could I be the one pushing him/her all over the country? Money is one thing but time is another...and I get 4 weeks of paid vacation 😆. So if I owned one that could put a whipping on most at any compass point on the map, well, he might not get that opportunity unless somebody with super deep pockets offered me some stupid money and they did the running. So y'all may never know just how many big hunts he could win, I would think though with the right pedigree behind him and those GRNT titles you'd still take notice much quicker than a regular ole 'PR' dog...even if it was done here local.
So titles are a big deal to way more than not. For example, to the breeders, how many people always flippin ask if they are SS??? Even in the red world? Now go look at how many SS reds actually go to a SS. So can a title simply be a selling point as well? Sure, but to me not so much in this little world of redbones...not yet anyhow.
