But did not get a book when they were sent out earlier this year. I will get one of the 2019 books when they are sent out in early 2020, correct? Also, I need to update my address. Who do I contact?

Hello Nick B....thanks for your email. Since there are several Bluetick organizations, these messages apply to the Bluetick Breeders and Coon Hunters Assoc. (BBCHA).

If you ascertain that we are talking about BBCHA we want to correct this as soon as possible. I checked the 2018 Blue Book membership listing by state and found no name for TN which would match a first name "Nick" and a last name beginning with a "B". So, for whatever reason, perhaps you weren't correctly entered into the BBCHA membership roles.

Please send me a personal email (my email: guy.g.ormiston.com) with your name and present mailing address. I will see that you are sent an '18 Blue Book and that any address we have for you will be updated.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Guy

Hello Mr Ormiston, i wanted to reply, about an article you wrote, about breeding horses, verus breeding Hounds. My thoughts are the hounds are required to think, trailing, going the right way on a track, treeing for accuracy, and other things that require, some horse sense. Where a horse is not required to think much, unless he's a cutting horse, but to run for speed. Yes, there are some things in common, but i always, thought a hound needs to use his brains. PS i did buy one of your books, but i did not agree, with all of your thought processes, i'm just an old farm boy from Ohio.

Thanks for replying, Mr Ormiston, your's is one of the first columns, that i read, you've recommmended several good books over the years. And i'll tell you about one i've bought recently, writtened by Neil Giffin, about a line of English dogs, they were called the West Tenn. Line or Beech River Line of english dogs. The fellow that writes the english column, Vic Mcmillian has them for $30.00 includes shipping, they are hard copy, his e-mail, is vicmcmillian@bmts.com, probably the best i've read about breeding, storys, about a line of coon hounds. I think it starts around the 1920's, go's to 1960, and they were long eared, could fly on a cold track, tree coons nothing else could smell, loud hard tree dogs, a lot of different lines, of hounds went to them, bluetick, english, black&tan, just a real good read. I liked the Back Trackin book and others. I use to have to go to Norman, Ok for schoolin, for my job, i stopped in to see Tim Ball, at Ardmore, he invited me to go hunting, which i declined, cause i don't like snakes, we would have to go for 2 to 3 weeks, on different engines, diesel and gas.
