You can learn "so much" from them.

Like if you put on a message board that hounds are not as accurate as they were 30/40 years ago, holy crap, the "experts" get on here and we have the best today that ever treed!! But then you dial in a good old podcast and you hear from one of the top breeders and his old hound in the 60s/70s never missed like todays dogs.

Then you read about all these modern day great reproducers and how great the pups we have today are. Switch to a different podcast and you hear from an old breeder who is going back to his old hound of 30 years ago because he likes what he had back then and can't get it with todays hounds AND he still competes in the hunts today.

Like one guy asked--"How would these dogs do in a good old 4 hour hunt?"

So enjoy what you hunt and just remember, you don't loose points on a circle tree and if you're not loosing you must be winning?
