The ones my buddies have gold nugget is there grandpa bred forbear hunting.. I love the hustle they have to hunt though. They don't hunt as far out as my hounds but really make sure they did a good job in 300-400 yard circles.. I've got some Pocahontas blood on my yard right now I've got2 pups off of Eugene walkers dogs. And a pup off Cajuns dogs.
I've seen that with big game bred dogs that they don't hunt out long range. I think that is because most big game hunters don't cast hunt. Most big game hunters I've seen bait for a track, look for tracks, or rig or road their dogs. So range is not something they do or do not breed for.
