Re: Who's Got More Style???
They are much alike and very nice but I would vote for the first one if I have to choose and I'm betting that is the HTA dog. But as you know they both are very nice in these pics.

It's not how many breaths you have taken but how many times it has been taken away!
Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.

Re: Who's Got More Style???
I meant to add that this is how these dogs point, some times better but not worse (un-stroked). A typical find for these two girls and I can post flashier pictures but this is their norm.

Re: Who's Got More Style???
Seeing them move would tell the story, I don't think of style in just pointing terms....its the whole package.
Nice pictures !

They are both classy/pretty moving dogs and long gaited but one does have more range.

Re: Who's Got More Style???
#2 is my choice. Much more intensity and, as you know, that is what makes style in my eyes. Both are great pics!

Re: Who's Got More Style???
That avatar pic was taken just after she turned four months old on some quail.........the jury is still out whether she is "stylish" or not.
I am sure she is out of a pointer......no short tailed dog would ever be worth having!

Number 2 for me also! Gotta love the blood streaks on her side. That shows me she has plenty of tail action and loves what she's doing!
Re: Who's Got More Style???
It is not a fair comparison. #1 is distracted by the camera. Both nice dogs. In terms of the pictures, then #2.

Re: Who's Got More Style???
I vote for number two Ron.
Re: Who's Got More Style???
I want a dog that is intense not only with body but also eyes. Want to see them staring a hole in the spot where the bird is. When they get the head that high it looks like they are just telling you there is a bird up there someplace if you want to go look for it. Probably just me but that intense stare is a great deal of the style in a point.

Re: Who's Got More Style???
That's almost always what someone says that's never hunted over a dog that points with a high head or with head crank.....I can assure you there is never a problem finding the bird, don't need a dog staring at the ground to know there is a bird ahead, and to flush it.ezzy333 wrote: When they get the head that high it looks like they are just telling you there is a bird up there someplace if you want to go look for it.

The bird is always upwind, higher the head usually the closer it is.

Re: Who's Got More Style???
I have one that points that way and it is ok especially from a distance looks really nice but I love the intensity of the stare and doesn't matter much if the front end is low as long as the rear is high. Love that look.

I don't know why any of my dogs do that because I don't barrel train or encourage it (too lazy and not sure how). I breed for High drive, Strong nose, brains, style, in order. Regardless of the picture they are equally intense on point.

Ezzy, I agree with you 100%. That doesn't mean that I don't like the looks of a high head and high tail but to me there is something really neat about a dog that gets those laser eyes going and points so intensely that they tremble.
That all being said to me I like #1 but thats just my personal uneducated opinion.
Scott
no dogs currently, looking for a new pup probably a setter.
Forget about the ending and enjoy the story that takes you to the ending

I vote for #2 looks like she reaching out for it, I have britts and one HTA pointer its cool to see him all cranked up when on point or backing To me it don't matter how they point high head high tail low head low tail whatever heck to me there all pretty on point !
Re: Who's Got More Style???
# 2 looks like she's asleep on point.# 1's head style is about the limit for me.Wouldn't own one of them high Head Crank dogs,looks unatural and stupid to me,like they're pointing crows in the sky or something.No offense meant to anyone,some like em some don't.
