Well i am personally partial to the ybmc, no big name lines but known around the area. I decided on this line because my close friend and hunting buddy had the same line years ago when i first started hunting with him and i liked the way they hunted. Most were short to medium range with good bottom and just enough grit to stop a runner but smart enough to sit back and bay until the cd's showed up. I now have 6 straight ybmc's out of the same lines or very close lines that my buddies original dogs came from. 3 of which are hunting and the other 3 will be ready come winter time. Something about a yella dog just does it for me.
I do not think that ybmc's are necessarily better than other prevelant working dog breeds but I know that what I have seen from them I have liked.

Tell me that ain't the prettiest thing you ever saw!
