I`ve had beagles since `57. sometimes completely out of control. Got so, my wife wouldn`t count noses, in the kennel anymore. My bloodlines go back to Grays Linesman, mostly through the late Vernon Keith from Fincastle Va. I keep all females, and one young male, to keep the line going. That male was killed by a car , while hunting last Wed. The person driving never even hit the brakes, and kept going. Guess I`ll have to look up some of those males I`ve sold.
I hunt with 410 sxs. Counted them the other day. Six,I must be crazy!
