Bluetick Legends: Rambo w/ Brian & Conor Lucas
Episode description
Blueticks are slow. Blueticks have bad feet. Bluetick breeders are kennel blind. Blueticks have never won the UKC WORLD HUNT. The list could go on and on. In spite of it all, Bluetick folks are dedicated.
Brian cut his teeth coonhunting with some of the greats. Indiana is home to more UKC World Championship trophies than any other state, by a wide margin. So, Brian could have gone any direction with any of the hound breeds but he found his groove with a line of blueticks commonly referred to as the Rambo Line. Lonnie Smiley and Kevin Leach took Brian in and raised him up in blue tick tradition. Brian is now sharing this inheritance with his son Conor.
Chris, Brian and Conor spend a morning talking about hunting and hounds with a deep dive into this sliver of Bluetick History. They look at how the Utchmans, Peryymans and Smileys all came together to produce this dominant line of Bluetick Coonhounds.
