The bloodline is basically Gay Baker/Littleman with a dash of Wright's Shake.

You need to contact Les Blondino he owned Bruce. Bruce was a field champion and a jump dog. In my opinion he was medium speed and could keep a rabbit going. Most of the dogs I saw directly off Bruce had a lot of hunt and jump. I bred a bitch to a bruce son that was a rabbit machine but she didn't take. The only reason I didn't try another breeding was the stud died before I had another bitcth I wanted to raise puppies from.

Only seen bruce run when he was very old. He had hunt. I did however get to see lone hunters buster run in his prime, he was out of bruce. Only seen him run once, but I can't stress enough how impressive he was on that particular day. He was a rabbit hunting and running machine. He set the standard for me that day.

There was a litter mate to FC Lone Hunter Buster, Slicker's On Base Bennie, owned by Gary Slick. I don't know if he is still living. Buster died at around 7-8 years.
