Mt State-Kingwood Shorty Stuff (not realy a bloodline)-Chapman's Hunter Stuff. Bernard is gone but he bred and raised the best hounds I've ever seen run.

I've only been into beagling for a little more'n a year, and when looking for a show dog I happened to stumble upon my Branko dog. Both sire and dam were bench, field grchamps so I thought he'd make a wonderful show dog... Until I realized that he's a way better hunting dog lol. So I got stuck with a Branko dog, and I love him and his style (cept he's a little too rough) so I recently added a pup who should be more medium speed, more linecontrol, she's got sudduths miss, weir creek on dam side, and to my surprise some Branko back in her ancestry... Actually ali baba who is my branko dog's grandsire... My pup's grandsire is hall of fame pp gch Andy's Cassidy Rambo (he almost granded in little pack).
Hopefully they compliment each other in the field!
We'll see what the future brings whether my pup has what it got to be the beginning of a small kennel of dogs that suit me in the field and trials.

When this question is asked most all hound men except the old ones will quote and pick from a studs line.

It always been like that.

When pups do good, its the stud did it and when they do bad its the studs line that gets it.

The Dams line, which is 50% full of studs is left out 90% of the time and I think it influences the pups more.
Only when the pups are culls, then the "worthless bitch" that you bred gets the credit(blame). ;)

I think I have to agree with Shady Grove. It would be hard to argue with Jack (Ninja & Heli-Prop) or was it Trimmer, good question. But I like Ranger Dan for a gun dog, never known anyone with a Ranger Dan hound they didn't like. Tons of hunt, good jump, great line control and check work, with a good nose. The best thing is he throws that in his pups and I don't have to travel far to breed to a son of Dan, which I've done twice this spring. My best crosses have been Ali-Baba & Ninja (up close) male crossed with an Ali-Baba & Ninja female (farther back) and Heli-Prop male and a Top Dog female. The Ali-Baba & Ninja cross produced a champion male and a very good female, while the Heli-Prop & Top Dog little female just won her first ever SPO licensed trial with 45 entries. I do like that Top Dog stuff.

JMHO

PS I've said many times that if Ninja have lived to a rip old age like he should have, we ALL be running Blue dogs!

My answer is simple.
Reffett's Ky Mtn Kennel

With this I get the best of the old Northway, some old Branko, and some solid rabbit hounds. I like the gyp out of Junie I have awfully well also. I don't have a single dog that does not go back to the same stock as Dexter's line and all but 1 have his name on the papers within 2 generations I believe. He has proven enough for that to be it's own bloodline.

What about TODAYS bloodlines! Everyone is posting about dogs that have been dead for years. Bottom line is the breed is faster and stronger today then it was 10 years ago in some of these top bloodlines. The Ninja blood is a solid bloodline, but when its now three or four generations back you DONT have the bloodline. You have a generic version that you hope and pray duplicates a line of hounds that competed a decade ago. How would a football team from the 50's stack up against todays athletes?

So what are some names from today's bloodlines that you would have in your kennel? The only one that I have any experience with that I like so far is Huntspur's Woodlot Hemi. I have a male directly out of him that I like quite a bit so far but he is just 15 months old now. I couldn't tell you the name of the dam unless I looked at his papers but I would be very interested in finding out how his littermates are turning out and possibly getting another pup out of the same cross.
