In your guys opinion what is a plott female worth that is papered but will only sell without papers because I promised I would not let the papers go. She is very well started and easy to handle.

I know for me that ability means all . To me the papers are a by-product and she is worth what her abilities are with or withought papers

Depends on what the buyer wants to do with her.To some people she would be worth less without papers and to others like Shane it wouldn't matter.How much do you think she is worth ?

Forget the papers all together, what would you yourself pay for the hound if you were buying her from someone else, thats what she is worth......

Your selling her for a reason so take that into consideration when pricing her out......well started has many meanings to many different people. Will she run her own track? Will she run a track and be at the tree with a lead hound or does she just handle well on the lead?

She will always be at the tree, she will not ride the box(she gets sick on top) she will strike out of the box if it is a warmer track. She is an aright tree dog, and she will run cats, bear and coon. SHe is a good bay dog. She has to get use to the handler. I let a buddy use her and it took her a couple of weeks before she would run for him.

Based on the information that you have provided,I would give the dog away to someone that you thought would provide her the opportunity to grow.Let money take a back seat and make a decision based on what is best for the dog.
