I've only had dealings with two and buddy let me tell you, they were HOGDOGS, I can't tell you anything about the blood behind them other than they were reject coon hounds, one was a male and the other was a gyp, the males only fault which eventually lead to his demise was he didn't have a single ounce of back up and bay to him, I don't care how many times or how bad he was cut he would never back down from one, I once saw him get his pad cut smooth and clean off his foot, almost surgical precision type cut, most any other dog would've quit, he was trying to run on bare meat and bone sticking out the bottom of his foot, that same hog had literally WRECKED this dude, some duck hunters caught him and called us thinking somebody had shot him multiple times with buck shot, the other was a small frame catty little gyp that could work out a hard track and run it with amazing accuracy and precision and just make some really good hounds look bad, we h caught a good boar with her and I had done had seen all I could stand and just had to have her, at the end of the hunt I filled out a blank check and give it to my buddy and told him to fill out the amount he wanted for her, he said let me think about and called me a few days later wanting to go hunting, as she was running that night we were discussing the purchase and all things went quiet and the pups I had running with her all slowly came back to the bike one by one, the next morning we found her tucked under some willow trees in a gravel pit, a gator had gotten her, I was so sick to my stomach and so thankful all at the same time because had he sold her to me a few days prior I would've been out of a good bit of money, now I don't base an entire breed off what I saw with those two dogs but they did leave a for ever lasting impression on me that I somewhat use until this day when judging dogs...

I am gone have to completely agree with goose. The ones I have seen impressed me. If I wasn't gone run Plotts i would run them. They can be nice speed track driving hounds. But not all of them make it as in any mine culling will eventually happen.
