I do know the line, Ban-dee was a two time national field champion, but mostly known for the pups thrown from his line. Usually Field Trial dogs can be a little too big in range for the pure hunter but again each dog is different and the training makes the biggest difference. You should hunt those pups.
Just curious, you ever see them lock up on point when they find something in the woods or fields.
One of the most beautiful scenes in the outdoors is two beautiful pups locked up intense on a bird. Frozen like a statue. Gorgeous

I have seen my brits lock up on point. They have not been trained in hunting at all, but you can see that it is in their blood. It is a beautiful sight to see how an animal that had been bounding around can just lock up like a statue and point at what he has found. Henry found a possum at the back of our yard one day and he must have done that statue thing for 5 minutes before finally deciding to go for him. He pounced on that possum, and the possum, well, played possum and did not react. Henry quickly lost interest and the possum sauntered away.

As a few month old puppy, Duke while out on a little field walk with his older partner Solo observed Solo locked up on point on a critter of some kind. He was probably thirty yards away but he locked up also, it is called honoring the point.
It is something that guys work on over and over again with some dogs to get them to honor another dogs point which is critical for hunting and here is a little pup who's entire genetic make up told him lock up upon viewing another dog on point. I find that amazing.
I have been in awe of their abilities since a very young man. And I realize that it is their association with man for thousands of years that caused that pup to lock up.
