MR. DEREK METTS
Pursuant to your reply concerning the "Parrot Mouth" dogs:
(1) I never said or insinuated that the subject dogs could not "run thier game" or "get after something".
(2) You seem to be a little testy concerning this subject - I did not mean to upset you however, rest assured that you, those dogs, or anything else on hear will or can "hurt my feelings".
(3) The subject is not who "my stud dog is" but "what kind of stud dog are you breeding to". And, before you ask - no we do not have any "Parrot Mouth" dogs kenneled.
(4) In closing (and you can correct me if I'm wrong) but, I have been schooled by many a wise hunter (to include breeders of all hounds) to believe that the "Parrot Mouth" trait is a hereditary FAULT and should not be bred to.
(5) Finally - I'M CONFIDENT THAT YOU WOULD NOT WANT TO COMPARE FIELD TRIAL RECORDS!
I asked Grant about that and his explanation was most of the guys that will come run the Top Gun would not run the Fut. or Nationals and Vice Versa. Think about it... there's alot of truth to that. It is still a touch of poor planning I think... and I told Grant that... but anyway. They asked a few judges to come that would love to help out if it wasn't the same time as the National. One in particular that I know, would not judge the Top Gun for fear of being bumped from the National list. But never the less Grant said they tried real hard to pick a weekend that didn't already have a big pen hunt scheduled and this was the weekend they came up with.
Mr McNight what does Woodchopper and the weather in Mississippi have to do we you? NOTHING!! I make several trips to Mississippi and was going to bring a gyp to breed to Clyde or try to get a puppy off him. But now I'm thinking I don;t need any. The Corbitts are some of the finest folks on the east coast and have real nice hounds that are game and run their game parrott mouth or not. There's alot more faults worst than overbite... Hal Cartee
Kidds Gone Famous will not place, he is going to be one of the top 5 hounds at the hunt but the EAST COAST judges will not let a hound from Arkansas place in the top ten.
what kind of bullsh8t is that ,,, idiots everywhere. if you think there's gonna be some hankypanky going on better save your $100 bill and keep that bull in arkansas
i dont think it would be smart if he brings kidds gone famous, more than likely he will not be at his full potential. It takes a truly acceptional hound to come back that quick after a 3 day and still be able to go 3 days at tar river and contend. just my opinion
my thoughts as well, i figured since he just did a 3-day , famous would not be this way, for each his on..... that is very tough as hank said and i'm certain the owner knows his hounds better than us speculators
