Mad and Skip P

*Truth be know Mad&Skip had a 22 year run breeding the Sorrells line and everything from 1981 for 22 years was the results of what Mad&Skip did, as full partners with Bert. We had 7 losses in 22years and most of them were with other blood, and only four losses with the Sorrells line.

This was part of one of my conversations with Mad and Skip.Just thought I would shed a little light on some Sorrells history.

There are still some of these dogs out there that are alive and well and in the right hands...............

The problem is 95 percent of the people that had or has this blood don't have a clue.how to breed it..That's why u didn't or don't see more.

Sometimes that isn't a bad thing as long as it is still working and perpetuating itself with the right people. If everyone had it, it wouldn't be as special.

I don't really believe the 7 losses in 22 years bit personally, but that's just me.

Mad and Skip did a lot with Bert many years ago. They broke one of his dogs outta "jail" when taken. They took his carpetmill keep and continued on with great success. They deserve a lot of credit for what they did all those years ago.

Frosty it is a incredible record and I can understand someone not believing it.

The math didn't add up in the first post. Only 7 losses in 22 years with most of them being other blood, and only 4 losses with the sorrells blood. 4 out of 7 is most of the losses, unless he meant he had 11 losses with only 4 of them with the sorrells dogs. Either way, it is still a great record.

I noticed that to and he could have just misworded it somehow but those were the exact words I got so I left it like I got it.

I have a chance at maybe getting some of that blood in the next years to come but I'm not really sure if it will happen or not. I know someone who is in touch with them and if everything works out, I may end up with something. It would be nice to breed one of my females to something down from that stuff....Uncle Bud blended with the CB/Josie dogs. My old bloodline that my dogs are down from carried that Bull/Josie blood through the Belle Star bitch to a fair degree and it might bring up some of those traits back out of it. I really liked the dogs down from the Belle Star bitch.....good, solid game dogs with a lot of intelligence and stamina.

Sounds good man.I hope it works out for you.

To tell you the truth, I'd rather just get some of the blood in its pure form, or the way it already is. Then I could start another small family of dogs off of them.

I'm not a big fan of out crossing dogs, at least not constantly out crossing them over and over again. I'm really at the point with my dogs that I need to inbreed the best of what I have, then line breed from the best out of those breedings. I've already made some crosses and anymore would probably dilute it too far.

I'm not saying it wouldn't work, but I'd rather keep it in the family that makes it what it is.

I agree and I understand and after talking with you I think you are headed in the right direction.
