One of the best I've ever seen and one of the funnest to hunt with was an ol Treeing Walker owned by Edgar Jeter.  His name was hammer and be sure had a nice bawl mouth.  Great dog and found many of hogs before he died baying a good boar.  If I could find one just like ol Hammer, Id have to have him.

I have a female that i had people coon hunt for me and them tell me that she would never make a dog. Now she is a jam up hog dog. I have around 8-9 now that i lost all my pups to parvo except 1. I wouldn't coon hunt anything other than a walker dog. I love an open hound if it sounds pretty. Nothing like a big mouth hound opening on track laying out that lipper scream! I love my walker dogs. I have got were a few people dont wanna hunt with me because either ive got to good of a dog or she will go to far. But there lost my gain. I'd rather hear my open hound a mile or more than there yapping cur dog at my feet.

I have a male that's a sure enough good treeing walker. He puts me on a lot of pork. He barks on track and I don't like it but he has the bottom to finish them up.

My lead dog is a full blood walker female, she will flat out find you pigs and has a lot bottom to her. She is the real deal, best dog I've ever owned.
