It happens. If you want a super fast dog you are gonna give up the control on the line somewhat period. I've seen some dogs that were fast and could handle the track about 90% of the time. As a matter of fact I judged 4 fast dogs in the finals of the champions at Nationals this year and all 4 dogs held the line the whole 2 hours of hard running and yes Brandon had one of them.
id hav to agree Joe,
, nobody who is honest with themselves about their dogs is gona say that they hav a dog with that kinda competitive speed (10)that will work a super tight track and check without over running....not possible. If you have a dog that you think is a 10 speed and works a super tight chek doesnt ever swing doesnt over run more than 3 feet, wont race etc... I doubt u hav a 10 speed but in reality u may have a better dog.
Some of our dog like Nitro Toots Reba etc.. extreme foot by anyones standards , but im not gona sit here and say ol yea by the way they are super tight line and check dogs too lololol, are they really bad rough ,not to me maybe to some, but the point is we are all shooting for a dog that does hav 10 spped with the best control ever but we also are sharp enough to realize that probably not possible. Yes ive seen some that cld run upper 8 speed like Kita, ,izzy, taylors black magic ace, etc... with UNREAL control check abilty
If you wanna dominate in HH you do need wheels but not so much that u miss lines , what you do need and most importanly is HUNTTTTT and honesty.
I think the problem is some guys are too concerned about "style" in the check instead of production. I want them to get the track as qucik as possible and go , inside out or outside in who cares if they pick it up b4 the other dogs, then u hav the other side of the spectrum guy who think as long as their dog will race to the front that all that matters.
Pack Style and Dominate style very different, I want a dog to dominate his packmates , some want a dog to work with them
