I know yer right on that Coma blood Hillbilly,I had a buddy that had a red female,if I could find another like her she'd be in my kennel right now....& you can bet on that,not a flashy dog & not fast but very accurate. He called her Molly,my Walker female I still hunt is named after her.

Hillbilly , back a fews ago I owned a direct son of Hillbilly Mac that was a rock steady every night coon dog . Took his tracks as he came on them , hunted out about 45 minutes and checked back in . If he was gone an hour you needed to get up high to hear him because he had crossed over a ridge . Deadly accurite dog too ,very seldom missed . Layup dog deluxe .
