Up ur expectations

Wow! Just read from a different site , a guy lookin for a dog with certain traits n 1 was " at least 60% accurate on tree" (coon). That's rediculous! I don't coon hunt any more n that's 1 of the reasons there is so much junk out there that's bein hunted n bred. If I had a hound that was slick a handful of times over the course of a year that was to much. I don't like a liar or excuses . How would that work for bear n cat huntin, not well. I see the same type of thing goin on in biggame huntin to. Guys who settle for less than they should. They say " well we didn't catch him today but we had fun" or make excuses for why there hounds didn't get it done. When I go huntin I expect to catch what I'm after , that's fun. I'm not sayin I catch every time but the % better be up there if a hound plans on a spot in my kennel or be in a breeding program. I guess by havin lesser expectations from some means there's more game for the ones with higher demand to catch. I don't know maybe that's another way to keep animals off the endangered species list. I guess what I'm gettin at is there is so much crap out there today cuz people let there be. If ur not catchin game don't make excuses n piss n moan bout it or blame it on something else. Look at the end of ur leash , that's ur excuse. N don't breed the non catchers either cuz u like there voice or looks. There's a lot of guys that never seen hounds cold trail day or 2 old tracks , run that fast , take a beatin n go back for more, never quit ect. ect. ect. So u young guys or guys just gettin in the game, there's good hounds out there, u just got to find them. Don't settle.
