Ok, We all have strains in the Walker breed we like, and we like crossing our favorite ones. But what I would like to see is how you rate these Lines in breeding terms.
Now we know there are good and bad in all and if you do not know about them, do not respond as it will just ruin the over all view. To make it easy, only respond with one of the three answers: Tree, Balance, Track
Let's see what you guy's think, none of these three answers are meant to be negative, they are tools.
Example: Grntch. Hawk - Balance
Ntch. Gene--Tree

1) Bozo 11)Nite Heat
2)Lipper 12)Pac Man
3)Hillbilly Mac 13)Skuna River Fred
4)YadkinTar Rattler 14)Rat Attack
5)Flatrock Coma
6)Nailor
7)Stylish Harry
8)Sackett Jr.
9)Wipeout Moose
10)Whitey
I know there could be more, but that has a majority of lines covered. 3 answers rate 1-14

I will agree with you on all of them, even Stylish Harry because i have no idea what the Harry offsprings treeing was like.

What do y'all mean by balance? Does that mean that they are both good trackers and treers?

Balance on this post means offspring don't lean mostly to tree or mostly to track, some studs offspring will tend to lean to one or the other. Yes we know it can vary to what you breed it too, but if you have put thought in a stud dog you know what he is bringing to the table.

Also picked all older studs cause the "proof is in the pudding"
Do you guy's agree with my assessment or not? A different opinion does not hurt my feelings in the least.
