I might be mistakin trainer for breeder, but IMO its more breeding than training.
I don't want a dog i have to train, the last 4 plotts ive started at 6-8 months of age, I just took them to the woods, no pen, no drags, no "training" they strike and run tracks ontheir own naturally. They do require practice and fine tuning and to some degree a little training you could say, but they will go hunting straight off the chain.
  Mine get on the job training Grin.
          This is good breeding, that I cant take any credit for.
as far as picking 100 plotts or curs, its all in the breeding, their are strains of plotts I wouldnt feed, so really hard to say. If both where bred right over a long period of time I would have to honestly say IMO it would be 50/50.

x2...a good handler brings the best out in a dog but I like a natural that just needs to be exposed to the game...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
