Anybody know anything about IFC Melanson's Fareast Sprocket?

You hear alot about Ranger Dan and hounds out of him, but what about Sprocket, Ranger Dan's brother? Anybody run anything out of him? Sprocket was in Arkansas. Any info would be great. Thanks!

I saw Sprocket on the box in Arkansas.About the same size as Ranger Dan.Had more white on him.I think he finshed FC before Ranger Dan. Sproket and Dan passed away about the same time a week to 10 days apart. Even bred Smith's Weedeater T Ann to him.Uncle X neice cross. She didn't take.Not long after that I sold T Ann to Kyle Cheslock and the rest is history.
I don't know shizz about dogs.

This is my male directly out of Sprocket. I think highly of him but he is getting up in age. This is the best jump dog I have ever had and is relentless on a check often coming up with it after others have given up. I never had a chance to see Sprocket himself. Wondering if this male looks anything like he did?

If I agreed with you then we'd both be wrong.

Here is a pedigree of some pups I just had with him as the sire.
