It does but is that not enough of a reason to breed it? Would you rather breed a talented cur? Thats what im getting out of the conversation

I dont see that it has to be a choice of breeding to a game no talent dog or a killing cur. Theres plenty of good dogs about that are both game and have plenty of talent \ finish.
Any dog I use needs to be game BUT must have more than just gameness, I wouldnt use just a game dog, Im looking for more than a plug.
has to be a choice cause thats what i got and think that out of his litter something got to have ability if your blessed to have a big yard of dogs well maybe no you dont need it but just starting out i got to breed to what i got and just game is a good start i would have thought.
Old mate told me many a ch been bred from a cur but breeding to a cur seems like a good path to failure for me...
I agree that any dog a person "uses" should have more than gameness, but (for breeding) extremely game plugs off of great parents have a history of producing prepotently, especially if inbred on the right dogs.
I believe it was Frank Fitzwater who said, "Boys, breed your game dogs and you'll get your fighting dogs!" ...
