I currently don't have a female to fit this exactly but I believe I can make it happen I do have a male this way for most part his name is hawk and I have a female that is close she is very catchy but have seen her bay at times when she shouldn't if I was wanting straight catch of course ( I think I can bred her back to hawk and archive this ) she has a litter on the ground now so it will take awhile but I will see what happens next time she comes in I will keep it posted

ok I cant resist any more I have to put my 2 cents worth in I think this is the perfect idea and I have been working at this concept for 15 years but to also have hunt with no lead in catch /
my experiences if you have several very rough curr dogs you can accomplish this with out a catch dog at all its no secret I hunt foundation BMC I have many dogs that will catch first and ask questions later but still have a lot of hunt to them and I purposely hunt this way, the down fall to my hunts is that the dog will range out and catch and it makes it harder to find or send other dogs to it, there has been many instances where I knew I had a dog caught on a big hog and the hog is trying to walk off with a new earring hanging
also in my dogs I have learned to send a young dog along with the original stike dog due to being young they will bay a little catch a little allowing the other dogs to tune in and pin point they adapt well and have learned to pin point from a single bark or even a hog grunting
yes I still have a pitt and it goes on every hunt and yes most of the time I still turn it loose only 2 time this last year I turned the pitt loose to the dogs baying both hogs broke the 400lb mark and still the currs were trying to catch
I know the foundation BMC has put a bad taste in many people but there is still some good dogs that have been breed right in my opinion and yes well have all read the many slandering post are they expensive yes are all of them worth it no a lot of people jumped on the band wagon and has almost ruined it all for all of us
I am just saying there is dogs lines out there that has targeted this concept for many years one of the dogs I have based a lot of my breeding on is Wrights Yellow Jacket (son of Weatherfords Ben) which I owned for many years till he died on my yard and yes he was a straight lead in catch dog I used him to catch hogs for 3 years before I retired him and never once heard him bay or even think about barking I also know I could turn him loose and he would go find a hog no matter how long it took or how far he had to go if you unsnapped him the next time u seen him he was caught , so I have used this blood and made severl different experiments in my days to try and put a little more bark back in and still catch hogs and still keep the hunt and in my opinion I still have not perfected what I want
not trying to sturr up anything up this is JUST MY OPINION

it was just getting dark I had just pulled into this ranch I checked the first water hole and nothing (no sign) so I started driving deeper into the place getting into some deep sand hill country I was messing around with my son and not really paying attention when my O-Ryan dog barked once (like hey stupid get to work ) (he usually just gets excited and wants out not making any noises) so I perked up and looked and stopped and O-Ryan and a young 18 month old pup bailed and took off into the wind and darkness I killed the truck and stood on top of the dog box with garmin in hand 500 800 .50 they were rolling out finally .87 and the bay was on just hammering I knew the place and knew I could get closer so I jumped in my truck and started easing that was all blacked out so I wouldn't brake it got within 300 yards and dumped the box waited till the rest of the pack got there grunt grunt grunt big hog caught a drove on up got within 100yards grabbed the catch dog and went on in to this HOSS

but now it is exposed so now someone some where is reading all of this and will try to scratch some things down on paper and try and sell a dog based on a long line of great dogs that came from the local pound lol I am sure it has already happened
just be weery there is alot of good and bad out there make sure you get to know the breeded get refrences if you dont know them look at history go hunting with them anything you can think of to make yourself comfortable with a purchase if ur not comfortable move on papers no papers expensive cheap it dont matter it all comes down to what u want and what you want out of it
this will be debated to the worlds end and the same out come each time
to each their own
dont let a forum tell you how to run your pack they are all just opinions everyone has one just like mine
happy hunting

both randy and david has good stock go with what you like there is always haters in the world
and yes they can be rough stock but like posted earlier there is ways to brake a dog from being rough sometimes I run all foundation dogs and yes i like them rough but they are all rough and i want them to be caught on a big hog 800 yrds away and i do not have problems with dogs getting cut up very often yes it happens but not much as you would think
if you want to talk blood lines or anything else I will shoot it straight to you hit me up i will give u my number

well I have been told a few times by the rancher there is a big spotted hog walking around. this last saturday night was rolling down the edge of a milo feild when O-ryan rigged and bailed runing straight into the milo about 600yrds out he opens up then I hear a fight I dump 2 more dogs hearing the milo crashing I knew it was on the run then things went quiet but stil seeing the dogs moveing on the system then all at once o-ryan and spartikus went baying hard then a third they were 1100 yrds by then so I jumped in thetruck and made the corner of the feild and got close as I could and dumped the rest of the pack having 300 yrds to make up I waited till hey hit to head that way with the catch dog (BAM) THEY HIT AND CAUGHT hearing a bark every onc in awile so I went to it fast as I could got there and the fight was still on relased te catch dog for more support as this hog was still holding his own finally got a leg and sealed the deal.
