Looks like you all should get together and line breed a few of these while they are still alive. Keep the prime time blood strong. I like what I have seen, just never had the chance to own one myself. I do know that Turbo and Prime Timecrosses has produced some tough dogs. Swap some pups guys!!!!

I talked to a guy the other day that said he has seen several nice dogs out of Hemi & Colonel's sister, FC Spencer's Blue Flame. Blue Flame was the Mid-West High 15" Female in 2007. Prime Time had 3 more Mid-West All-Age High Hounds; more than any other stud. FC GMC's Primetime Peeka-Boo was the Mid-West High 13" Female in 2005 & 2006. FC Talkabout Kellie was the Mid-West High 15" Female in 2005 & FC Hill's Primetime Trailblazer was the Mid-West High 15" Male in 2006. Kellie & Trailblazer also won Better Beagling's High Hound Award.

Mighty good looking Chocolate Tick,, Looks like the pup has some of the Old Tenn. Lilly Creeks blood in him.

Good Luck with that Tick, I love his color have a few myself that color.

heres my male out of Cobalt. coming on strong !! I also have his sister. will be 2 in oct.

Money Sunk Mountain Man's mother was an exceptional hound Monkman once told me that was out of IFC Taylor's Sock It To Me that was outstanding. Sock It To Me was an exceptionally talented cottontail and large pack hare hound with gears that came from Joel Ferguson Doug's brother there in New York . To Me was awesomely talented on both sod and snow & ice from what Doug and Art Beamer have told me. I think he impacted Mountain Man and his offspring as well as Prime Times. I really think the Awfulbawlin & Prime Time breeding or crosses would click with clean check work and ability to hook up and really pound a rabbit or hare. This would be a great objective IMHO. Steve Church ps of course Jack Pot and some others in the cross were great ones as well.

You may be right. Blue Banks Moon Pie & FTC Moneysunk Socket were bred 3/4 exactly the same. IFC Taylor's Sock It To Me & an IFC Able's East Coast Trimmer bitch. I think some of the best Prime Time bred dogs are yet to come. There is enough blood out there to do some good line breeding.

This is Cruz Control double Prime Time, double Turbo

Nick, my puppies off of Cruz are looking great. Smart, active with good looks. I'll be using him again soon. Thanks.

Speaking of the Sock it to Me stuff. Years back I owned 2 males out of Moneysunk Ratchet (Socket's littermate sister) and Otterbrook Sam Jr. Both were very nice, one especially had the best nose I have owned and tons of foot and no quit. He could outright smoke a hare and hookup for long stretches without any big breakdowns, pleasure to watch and hear him run. I agree with sbeagler, I think the Sock it to Me bitches may have had the dominant gene factor for the nose that is a big part of all of these crosses- Prime Time, Mountain Man and the cross my 2 males were out of. From what I've heard from guys who saw him run, To Me had a great nose and conformation. JMO

Right on. I've seen some great Sock It To Me hounds & some I didn't like, but I think a touch of this blood from the right place can add incredible talent, great conformation( athletic, tall & straight build) & great line control with nice chop mouths to your line. The right place was Blue Banks Moon Pie & Elk Creeks Amazing Grace for me; littermate sisters by IFC Taylor's Sock It To Me & Camp Creek Gertrude. FTC Moneysunk Socket has proven her value also by producing FTC Moneysunk Mountain Man, sire of top sire, IFC Awful Bawlin' Viagra. Blue Banks Moon Pie was the dam of FC Brent's Prime Time & Elk Creeks Amazing Grace is the granddam of IFC Stoneyhill's Gator, sire of another one of today's top sires, IFC Cedar Beck Oliver.
