but with bay dogs you got to travel on a bad hog and with rough dogs you dont most times IMO

Sometimes, but i've seen more rough dogs bust bays and push hogs further. Unless they flat out catch it, which goes back to cut up and/or dead dogs, a hog will usually find a place to bay... just my experiences.

I think the key to bad running hogs is bottom, bottom, bottom.
