here you go guys. another finley river
quality female bred to drifter. Finley river females crossed on Drifter are a proven commodity.
There are personal hunting females of these hunters breeding to drifter.
You guys need to contact Jeff and start booking them. so far the list of folks wanting drifter pups is way more than what is on the ground.
I would book them now and get on his list. there have 4 top top female bred to drifter waiting on owners to book them. I would go back through these post and send these guys a message and get on a list of some kind.
there are only a handful of studs and I am talking maybe two or three in the country and drifter is one of them, that can throw a whole litter of coondogs no matter how the female is bred.
It is his old blood line breeding that I personally think makes him a dominant DNA stud. This only comes from serious long term line breeding.
When you look at Drifters pedigree it literally boggles the mind the thought and serious breeding it took to get this hound produced. these guys up in his part of the country were breeding coondogs for themselves and not to sell or brag up.
nobody in the coonhound world but dennis and his local hunting partners even knew this breeding was going on like it was until Eric Franks discovered it and told me about it. I got on the phone with Dennis in a hot minute and he started telling me about drifters pedigree and I was writing it down as he told me and it starting to confuse me so I told Dennis send me a 7 gen pedigree of Drifters. When it arrived I could not believe what I was seeing.
I knew of and followed Drifters ancestors back when they were alive. Dogs like Black Creek Mike, Poor Boys Sid, Poor boys chainsaw. All went back to Spring Creek Radar who to this day was the best looking walker hound I ever saw standing in a pen.
Not only that, he was a dual grand champion son of spring creek rock. Radar threw mouths that were legendary. I owned several off of Radar and some of them were medium sized dogs and you could not stand at the tree next to them treed and carry on a conversation. Forget trying to ask your hunting partner do you see the coon. You had to yell just to be heard a few feet away.
It was hard to wrap you head around a 50 lb dog so loud that the sound did not match the size of dog treeing.
Drifter goes back to that original cross on Radar more times than I have been able to count.
Ask Eric or Dennis...give them a call and ask them about Drifters Dad, grandad and great grandad and great great grand dad.
You are talking about 7 straight genrations of male dog studs that could out hunt, out trail and out tree most any dog they ever hunted with or against.
Heres your chance to add some new blood to the walker breed.
We are seriously in trouble with dogs that cant run a cold track and half tail can run a hot one without treeing slick and or just not being able to track the coon to his final destination.
Drifter represents the hounds from the past because his blood is cloned over and over again through outstanding line breeding.
Drifter is a DNA freak...Just like ol Radar was. While he was alive some of the hardest hunters with world class females were brought to Billy Stinson and Radar. There was a reason.
Radar dogs were very rarely ever sold. If you read some old Finley River posts, you will see hunters who had radar dogs they kept till their dogs death for years.
