To me, breeding a dog that cannot find or strike it's own hog is like going backwards. You might luck up but for sure the chances of getting top dogs is nil. It is hard enough getting top dogs from top dog breeding. There are so many variables to make a top dog & if you have the right gentics, you need the exposure & hunting that is required to make a top dog. Good dogs dont get made on a chain or in a pen.
  Other then people running rcd's with there strike dogs I just dont know many peoplle who would hunt with help dogs other then young & upkeeping youngsters. I must be wrong because the dog trade if full of them but how often do you see top strike dogs for sale. If people would cull them, instead of breeding them you might see a difference.
  On anotherf note if T Bob does not mind why is it so hard for that super dog to reproduce itself. One of the most famous crosses in Plott history was the Butch x Jill cross(weems breeding) According to the man that trained Jill she was just a avernot age dog but when bred to Butch, she reproduced well above the average to great dogs. Both parents were linebred & related.
  I think the biggest problem is kennel blindness & the I would rather breed one of my dogs then go down the road & breed to old so & so top dog. I just cannot understand this concept.
