How did I miss this thread?!!!
I just read every post and no one even got pissy with one another.

Sometimes you people really disappoint me on this board. lol.
O well since Im here.
When I was young I didn think you were hunting with a dog unless it was a hound. I love hounds and always will but when I started hunting hogs in Texas back in 87 I just naturally gravitated to the cur dogs. It didnt take long before I was trying to put a hound in the mix but only one out of all I tried ever worked out and he was only average in my opinion. I loved being able to put that dog on a big track and catch the hog that left it even if it was 12 hours later! But for everything else I used my curs and eventually was all I used.
After a year of keeping up with post and comments from this boards members I have finally started to realise something.
I have never hunted hogs behind truly good big game hounds...........ever.
I dont know. Maybe if I had when I was younger the dogs at my house today would have a little more ear to them.
