As long as more than one man draws a breath on this earth, there are going to be 2 wrong ways and 2 right ways to do everything, lol. I see how offense could've been taken in black streaks writing. I also se the point of both guys here. I believe that certain types or styles are better suited for certain terrain, it's just common sense. I met a fella once that I had a difference of opinion with about bigger catch dogs. He is a dog man by my standards. He was judging a conformation show when I met him. I had some questions for him about the bigger dogs not placing in the show ring when he was done. I wasn't showing, I was actually in looking for new blood to freshen up with. I didn't find it there. Anyway, I didn't like what his opinion of the bigger dogs were at the time but I could see where he was coming from because it had been nearly impossible to find what I was looking for. Long story short, I invited him to come see and hunt with what I felt were the big dogs that he didn't feel existed. Many years later, he has a new respect for the big dogs and I have the same towards the smaller. He has become family to my whole family and even though he's about a 3 day drive away, if he needed something, he knows I'm a phone call away. Goose is right ( I tried not to write that too loud), find the time and go hunt. I don't have to be hostile. Hell, you might even like each other. You might learn something from each other too. As for one out dogs, I have another friend that had some cracker dogs here in Texas. His original old dog was a one out type. He hunted about 4-800 yards out solo and didn't bark when he found hogs. Depending on how you bred you could get the same thing or rough dogs that would bay until they had numbers on their side then catch. For different reasons, these weren't my type of dogs. He was feeding them and he liked them so they were good. They worked for him. I wouldn't have gotten along with them so I chose not to have them. We all have a flavor and sometimes after growing up on homemade vanilla we learn that we might like the chocolate too. Be smart and don't limit yourself.
