A general forum for the discussion of hunting with beagles, guns, clothing and other equipment and just talking dawgs! (Tall tales on hunting allowed, but remember, first liar doesn't stand a chance)

I may breed to Sport myself; I put a win on his dam, Tango, and she was a really nice hound.
Sport is a very nice hound and Roy is a good guy. I think the reason why not alot of people saw him run was because when he got on his roll, in the trials, he finished quickly and Roy didn't run him much after that.
I watched Sport run quite a bit while Roy was trialing him and handled him at one trial.
Here is what I saw from him-
- Tons of brains
- Had a very special quality about his demeanor...very calm and friendly
- Could stroke when he had the front...with control...it seemed as though he knew when to turn it up a notch at the end.
- Did not have to have the front...no cutting and slashing but would slot up and wait for the front runners to bobble it.
- Consistent...same everytime out
- Built well
I would say almost the same thing about Showtime as well....a few differences, but mainly the same...depends if you want Primetime or Bluebarry blood if those two were your front runners.
I have never seen Bandit run so I couldn't tell ya a thing about him.
