Ask Rowco about a hunt in NC a few years back . Chrome was just too strong. His 13 inch female came out strong , but Chrome didnt have to kill him self to keep up with her. He just ran at his pace which is pretty steppy. The lil bitch just got tired cut and dry. Had she been "15 she wouldnt have had to put out so much effort to stay up and would have no doubt won the hunt.
Mike, you are right about that cast. You failed to say I tried to buy Chrome - you did not take my offer but I still have that little bleutick and we will still run for fun if you want. I don't mind getting beat by dog power. I'll have to say, even losing that was one of the best 2 dog races I ever heard. Bobby

We can not have the same dogs in all cases,but it does not matter 10'' up to 20'' if that dog fits my pack run them.Beagle are pack hounds i look at what they can do to help my pack then size.I know i do not have no world beatters,but i sure can kill about ever rabbit they get on.Sizes only matter to the person who feeds them.JMO Billy
