I believe Rat Attack speaks out accross all breeds whether you like the walker breed or not because he has overdone himself as a reproducer of winners. JMO

hound that has played the biggest positive impact on your breed is in MHO Lone Pine Lady.. She can be found in a great multitude of TW pedigrees of the finest dogs in the breeds history.. She should be the most famous Walker.

Bluetick, Dave Deans original Hammer..

English, Hardtime Speck, really was a TW

This is almost a trick question.

Their are so many great hounds that contributed to their breed ,picking one is nearly impossiable.

The most famous was actually a pair of Redbone's named Old Dan and Little Ann, straight from the Book and Movie's. (Where the Red Fern Grows)

Many young people are given an introduction to our sport as a result of this book or movie. This is the only impression or connection that many people ever have with our sport. It's the reason alot of "newbie's" often choose a Redbone as their first hound...

I'd say the most famous is good ole "rat attack". If I want to see a slick treeing idiot I know where to go. Direct offspring or grandson or grandaughter, it doesn't matter, the slick treeing gene comes through with ole rat attack. I've seen it over and over and over. Oh yeah, and meanness too.

has got to be Merchant's Bawlie. He won 2 World Championships, back when there were large turnouts at the Hunts. This was in an era when NEWS of a good coonhound didn't get around to all coonhunters like it does today, but yet probably every coonhunter of that time period had heard & knew of Merchants Bawlie.

As for the Treeing Walker Breed of best REPRODUCERS, I would say that it would be hard to leave Johnsons Banjo & Banjo II out of the mix. They put the TREE in the Treeing Walker Breed. I would say that well over 90% of todays Treeing Walkers have that blood in them? There were more TREE DOGS back then, then alot of you were led to believe, but the Banjo strain put the SLOBBER SLINGERS in the Treeing Walker Breed as well as other Breeds of hounds breeding to them also.

I will also say that there are well known coonhounds of EVERY BREED, whether registered or unregistered.
