sqeel how can you say anybodys opinion is wrong it;s treir opinion not yours !! now with that said i prefer a small catch dog for the reasons swamp hunter i think said, a foarce against a heavier object will result in greater damage period just check out physcics and you will see what he's talking about . a small smart pit [like mine ] will do just as well as and a better job of catching than those big dumb hevier catch dogs will with less damage to the dog .

Physics is obviously not your subject of expertise. These are not inantimant objects! You let your opinion on what you like in a cd get in the way of the discussion at hand. If I have a knife in my hand, and one day a little guy comes to take it from me and the next a big guy tries which one gets cut the worst has little to do with their size but rather their style of dis-arming me.
Unlike most people on this forum I have owned both types of cds. high quality in both styles, dogs who can keep their feet on the ground and hold clean get cut less most of the time. FYI Big does not equall dumb or slow
