Thank you to the OP for that! I too enjoy those types of discussions. I miss a similar type debate between by Father and Grandfather. Rabbit hunting with beagles was the subject. They differed on what type of dog (all beagles; but male vs female; trail vs jump; fast vs slow) they preferred and the guages and shot types to shoot the rabbits with. At the time I was often bored having to sit and listen to them debate those issues over a beer on the back porch or a tailgate. Now, I so very miss those. I still make an effort to visit with Grandpa, but dad's gone, so are the beagles and for the most part so are the rabbits.
