yeah i here you bryant , but in my opinion unless you get those dogs out into the hands of other dog men and novices alike . hunting differant country being handled and work in a lot of differant fashions , and methods how you gonna know exactly just what you got .
Because I'm not interested in how they hunt and perform with other types of hunting other than what I'm doing with them. If I were trying to market a new breed or "bloodline" or whatever and if my intent was to try and make a name or start selling dogs, then I would take greater interest in working towards an all around dog that would fare well when hunted by different methods and terrains. It doesn't matter to me how they might hunt off a hood...I don't hunt that way. Doesn't matter how they hunt out in front of a four-wheeler, cause I don't hunt that way either...see what I'm saying?
Just my opinion is all...
X2 I want to tailor my dogs to my wants and needs.
