A dog has to have the heart,and desire to keep going.What line of Blue Dogs produces this? Or,better yet,what Blue Stud dog produces this?

If you have to hunt 40 hrs a week to try and make a silk purse from a pigs ear I dont agree. I have had some pretty decent hounds but hunting them that hard, once they are solid would not make a difference. They lack better genetics not more hunting. They must be hunted alot by themselves once a solid dog. Example I had a 6yrs gyp which was soild. It got hot in May 100+ so i quit hunting. July 4 turned loose one time two water holes with at least 10 snakes at each, run her down went home. The next time was Friday UKC zone hunt. Won my cast. Saturday won cast and placed 2nd at the zone. If they are solid they will be the same no matter what. She had a lot of heart and desire. Genetics Genetics Genetics

I dont like knocking alot of coons out to them, old man says if you have to shoot alot out your aiming to high. Lots of truth in that.

I know ALOT of you don't like what you THINK you know about certain dogs. This a main reason the blues aren't as competitive on a REALISTIC and BIG level. Because of what people THINK or SAY. What I can tell you and I've hunted with , against, and just plain hunted some of the best is this..... You want to talk drive in a blue dog? I will guarantee there is NOT one with more drive than HEMI. Barks alot on the ground ya, but that's fine with me cause she RUNS a track and doesn't straddle it like most. And trees real live coons not circle trees and "excuse trees".
Gauge..... He has as many tools as anything out there and as well balanced as any. Without a doubt my favorite blue dog ever to just go coonhunting with! Tree coons lots of ways and looks darn good doing so and more brains than most people. And beat lots of good dogs who won lots of big things. Been in final 4 of prohunts and won final 4 of some major added purse events as well as AKC and plenty of UKC events so I guess the moral to that is take a coondog to a coonhunt no matter what rules/ registry and you will do you're share of winning. That's a FACT! We've proven that as well as some others have!
The real reason for the blue dogs not living up to the expectations of the people in the breed is the people would rather lower there expectations to "toot there own horn" than go outside of the box to improve the breed.

My only point was to answer the question. Is it real? Yes and been proven by several people/dogs but lots of people don't want to give credit where it's due because of the kennel blindness within the breed. So it's there in the breed just needs utilized.

Lance,
Nobody knows much about old washed up dog trainers/handlers. Lol
And I'm not sure about Bluetick Days. Would sure like to have my young dog ready and go but I've pretty much retired (from coonhunting) as I have been working alot and spending all the rest of my time with my daughter really.

I understand. I appreciate the hard work and success you achieved promoting blues. Guage really built a résumé. Family comes first. I hope you get time in the future to promote the young hound. It helps us all when good ones rise to the top no matter what the bloodline is.

Thanks Lance! I've been very fortunate to say the least and met lots of good people, made lots of friends, and had ALOT of fun. I'm sure I will be around from time to time just waiting on my handler to get a little more age on her! Haha

Competition style bluedogs have always been there,as far as deep and alone every drop not my style.First one treed with a coon no matter what others are doing is what i like.A comp.hunter needs a partner to help with expenses or deep pockets these days.Won my share in 00,01,02 with a female called jillie.May tree beside you may tree deep.strong point was she was accurate.Will give it another shot with a blue when i can save the expenses,family comes first.
