How were the Old Man's dogs bred? Did he use one certain bloodline predominately? Very hard to drive that far even having a pound of weight advantage and win. The only way to deal with weighing scales you are not familiar with. Is to have a couple of varying Toledo US Certified weights to check the scale. The Old Man may have done just that. If just a few of you and a whole lot of them. You are not left with many choices if the other group chooses to work against you.
Was a three hour or longer drive to Atlas Brewer's place. Atlas Brewer's side kicks, then drove us around and up and down hill sides for a hour and half. Before our assumed match with him took place. Our dog did get car sick. Turned out it was Mr. Lonzo Pratt we were going into not Atlas. Pratt had been there at the show ring in advance with a rested dog ready to go. CA Jack we had one of those extra good Head/Throat dogs you prefer named Braddock's Mr Clean. Did them no good.
For any dog men that have not traveled to a far away State. With just a handful of you alls and a whole bunch of them alls waiting for you to arrive. It can not always be a pleasant experience.
V. Jackson conditioned a really nice bitch for R. Sweatman named Gold Pudding. Was into Irish Jerry's Pool Hall Red. Was a hard tit for tat match right down to the wire.
When the final scratch came up for Gold Pudding. All Jerry's fans came around to our corner. When Gold Pudding was released they went to foot stomping, caterwauling and beating on any metal object they could. Was enough to spook Sweatman's dog and stall her out. When Gold Pudding got refocused, started over to Pool Hall, she did not beat the count. Was using their referee and there was a lot of Georgia Hill Billy's there that day. Was only four of us.
Momma said they would be days like that. LOL You have to suck it up and move on to something else. Yikes!!!
