Do you know of any,or did you know of any stiff in the past?

Absolutely mate . 
I wouldn’t contemplate buying a pup from parents I’d never seen or at least had someone I trust vouch for . 

And I certainly wouldn’t touch anything ever that would cur away from a balled up fox down the beam or couldn’t bend a daytime hare. 

I only ever had one dog pull up on fox and that was a bull to lurcher cross bitch who was supposed to from very good foxing parents and she flat out pulled up and that was that. Luckily for her I made her reasoning that She was only 22ins and it was distasteful anyway, she was more than adequate in other quarry aspects. Besides, I had two 26 inch dogs at the time who were in danger of becoming nighttime walks only so I wasn’t too fussed. 

I’ve seen many many dogs who would be equally home on the land and down the beam at old Charlie. My pal had a cracking half cross bull to a coursing bitch who could kill anything.  And two of the very very best killers I saw were two brindle litter brothers, again half cross bull father to a saluki whippet grey, who were magnificent in both day and night at all uk quarry . They were bred into many Cumbrian lads lamping stuff and I had a three quarter grey out of one of them who was f***ing lethal

For me a good hare dog is more impressive than a foxing dog. A good hare is a match for any dog, the best of foxes will get killed in seconds by the best of dogs, no contest really.

If a big male strong dog can't finish  3 quick single handed it  is not worth a carrot 

 

Yes and no. 

i was never a foxing man , i would run and kill but more as an opportunity to test the dog and a bit of crack than anything too serious . I like a bit of bull in a running dog for the snap and the brain they have and it just tidies up a dog imho

One of the best what I would call spree killers lol was our very own @WILFdog who could get taken out to a place with heavy foxes and be guaranteed to leather them back to back with minimum respite between. I believe he was heavily saluki blooded and was as handsome a dog as you could wish to kennel. 

conversely a dog that you would think would be a grinder of foxes might take one early in the evening and take a few bites and in a few hours be a little less reluctant to engage with the next one once the nips have started to rub and it pumped up blood has calmed down. Seen it numerous times and that’s a fault , it’s one I could live with . 
 

as said though , I’m not a foxing man per se . Just my opinion

You mean you don't agree that they are as easy to catch? I know what you are saying, they don't get the respect a hare does, but then again how many foxes do you get laid up in their seats and need kicking up lol, but yeah, lads don't think about giving a fox fair law. Lol

What makes me laugh is the bull x lads ain't much sense or ability in dogs 

It would take a dogman a few years to breed an out and out killer with all night in the tank  that loves teeth and still looked hard on a lead lol haha
