Roofus had first and first on every strike and every tree. With the exception of me causing him to take a second tree. I didn't call him treed when I should have on the second drop. Then me and another guy treed at the same time. And I let the judge give the other guy the first tree. After we scored the coon and was walking out a couple of the guys in cast mentioned that Roofus had treed first. On the last drop Roofus got first and first again and all three other dogs pulled and ol' Roofus stayed put on a den tree. I like his style he strikes as soon as he smells a coon and he trees steady not to hard and not to slow just right for me. This was only my third trip to the woods with him. He has shown me 9 coons, 1 den, and 1 slick... I won't fault him for the slick because it was late off a feeder. I feel that a coon had maybe been there. In fact Roofus knew he was wrong he quit treeing right after we got there. He seems to be the real deal. The only complaint I can say is with his locate in my opinion he don't have one he just has a steady change over... So far I am very happy with him. I do plan on putting him in several hunts this year. He is a joy to hunt. They say he is go yonder type dog with no reverse but I haven't had that to happen just yet. Thanks for all the kind words. And I will keep everyone posted on how does good or bad. I am not the kinda of guy that will just share the good things. I call them as they are... Roofus has proven to me that he came from the flat state of Illinios and that he can get it done in the mountains of West Virginia...Once Roofus makes Nite Champion he will be offered at stud but not until then. I believe he will go on to become a Grand Nite Champion if nothing happens. Once again thanks, JR
