Has anybody seen this dog run? What type of speed, hunt, and drive?

LTT Tracker had a lot of hunt and a great nose. He was the type of hound that put the line between his legs and run it all day long, he had one of the best noses i ever seen and had it under control.
I owned Tracker and Two of his brothers 1. Armando's Northern Dancer and 2. Armando's Wolf these hounds went hunting when you dropped the lead and did it with a lot of desire.

If my memory serves me right, Armando's Northern Tracker was flown down to Louisiana on a Saturday and entered into the Pelican State Beagle Club Large Pack trial on Sunday. I think a man by the name of Anderson was handling him. Someone at the trial said Tracker had never run on swampers before that day.

When the dogs were cast, he got the first rabbit up and totally dominated the trial. I believe there were over 35 dogs in this cast. When the trial ended he had blown all the competition away. This was one impressive hound. Straight on a line and pounded it all day.

Back then Pelican State brought in judges from the North and Canada. Typically the hounds were cast at 7:15 and the winners pack was done by 2-3 in the afternoon and not anytime sooner. The running was just awesome!

Latimer, look like this will be a nice cross. A male off this cross would fit in my breeding program. I have a female out of IFC Armando's Northern Tracker and a ( IFC Branko's He-li Prop and a Elm's Jigs maggie mate female ). How old is Northern Tango and what is his speed, hunt, and running style?

Alfred Deel of Delaware Ohio recently aquired several of Allan Zimmermans Jigs-Elms dogs whatever you want to call them.Alfred also owns Horseshoe run Prince who is a phenominal dog directly out of Mark V,s Ace in the hole and Willow run Abbey who is New City top&bottom.In Aug.2004 Alfred bred Prince to Kyp of the Elms who is directly out of Allan Zimmermans Northern Tango and the Elms Miss snowy who Alfred now owns.This cross proved to be as perfect as we thought it would be as we have 18 mo. old dogs 4male and 2 female who are all turning out phenominal.Alfred also owns Kyps two littermate brothers The Elms Benelli&The Elms Remington both out of Northern Tango&Elms Miss Snowy.Alfred has been breeding beagles for almost 50yrs.But we dont trial.I have been to several trials and can tell you that this cross of dogs if trialed would probably produce several champions.Alfred is working on a web site but for now can be reached by phone @740-363-5074.

I just want to clarify that after reading my posted message about Alfred Deel that it may sound like he owns Northern Tango but he does not.Allen Zimmerman still owns Tango but Alfred owns the other dogs mentioned in the message. thanks
