I like the Moby Dick stuff personally. Tons of nose, good hunt, and great line control. If you are gun hunting and you want nice hound work then it will be great for you. Some of it is getting out powered in the trials these days, so you gotta cross it with some power, like Cawood. That cross is doing great. but the dogs just have so much nose it’s hard to pass on them as a hunter. They are usually big too btw

I show my age, but i like little man bloodlines for medium speed. Find some bloodlines that sound good to you and go see them run. I was lucky a man in morganton had little man breeding, and his dogs all had a similar running style that i liked. Like so many other things best is in the eye of the beholder.

In last 30 plus years, I have seen good & bad in all, but for me l got BEAR & OTIS in everything I have. I like gundog brace style. Being 71 years old, I can’t do really strong dogs.

The top to for sure in so many Pedigrees you can’t count on FC’s with that without this goes back to Stuby..If you do enough research they all go back to Stuby pretty much until you get to really old ones because it goes back to yellow Creek some gay blood and the patch hounds

Can get good and bad with any hope you can find the good ones.. Seen a lot of many types wasn’t worth a penny jmo. Seen more consistent out of the right blood lines ... Would say need them on both sides sire & dam that are good..,
