Anyone hunting anything out of Zeb III. Getting ready to buy a pup out of III, and just wanted to see if anyone has anything off him, and how they like it? How they hunt, mouth, style, brains, etc....

Brad, I love the way you think breeding Spice to 3. Im sure your gonna have you a nice one or two out of that cross. I was sure impressed with her the night I hunted with her and Jody in Indiana. Looks like Bud has been doing a fine job with Willie also!

I have one that is about 4 months old out of 3 x a very nice Fred female. Smart as a whip and easy on the eyes. Time will tell.

I think they tend to be slow starters.

How old was your pup when you sold him?

Quick starters, loud mouths, alot of go, and are not bad to look at. I have hunted 3 out of Zeb 3.They was all tree minded early.


Billy, your dog started quickly and treed as hard as any other dog. He was just not as far along as I wanted for a dog that had that many nights of hard hunting on him. He would also shut up on tree at times and I would have to stop and wait for him to go back to treeing. He was a very hard tree dog for me, but didn't make enough trees for me. He was also very accurate. I also hunted a littermate to him. She was alot like him.


Now I am hunting a bitch out of Zeb 3 and a different bitch. She is 13 months old and alot further along than either of the above mentioned pups. She is the right kind.


If I wanted to breed a bitch, I would not hesitate on breeding to Zeb 3. There is alot that determines what a pup will be, not just who his sire is. Sometimes you just have to have them out of the right bitch. The 2 littermates I hunted would also have the trail all night mode on certain nights, but it was not alot of nights. They would pretty much make a tree before the night was over.

Who wants to chase a dog 5 miles through the woods every drop, and never see a coon. And the SOB wouldnt come back, i had to go get him. That aint fun to me. Out of probably 50 hunts, he treed maybe 5 times, never would stay..I would have to get to him quick, but hard to do when he is a mile away.lol

Glad to hear it. Better check them trees a little better, Tapp was the most accurate pup that has been here in 30 years of hunting. I would say he was more like 90%. If he would of gambled a little more on some trees, I think he would of treed more coons. Him being accurate sure wasn't the problem. I told you, this time next year, he will nbe one hell of a dog. I was just wanting something for the SS, and he just wasn't going to be ready that quick in my opinion. After the SS and the world, I will get ahold of you and we will go for a hunt.

Billy, I like a dead loner. That is the way Tap was when I had him. The few trees that he tried to come and back on, I did scold him and sent him out of there before I ever shined the tree. If he were mine, I would continue to do the same. It just depends what you want. Nothing good can come by him backing in my opinion. He might learn to tree up some trees that he shouldn't. But like I said, it just depends what you want in a dog. I own nothing that will back. I want a dog that I can turn loose beside a treeing dog and it will go find a coon of its own. That is how I try to train all my dogs. I think Tap had only tried to back maybe 4 or 5 times in the 5 months that I owned him. If dogs would slick tree, he was mostly treed somewhere else with the coon.


Matt, I am not sure who this pups mother is. I am hunting her for Jeff Travis and Brad Mitchell. Seems like Jeff told me she was out of a full sister to Clone, but I am not sure. She is not from Illinois tho, she is from Tennessee.
