TexasHogDogs - I agree in East Texas where hogs are hunted often with dogs a silent dog is probably better. I never said open dogs were better hog dogs, nor did I ever say hounds were better than curs. All I'm saying is the cur has his place = short races , hotter tracks, stock work.
But the hounds own the rest IMO = tough tracks, BIG game, fast game long running game ie. coyote, deer, lions
So it seems the general opinions is the cur is great because they are silent. So lets all get hounds and breed silent ones.
The cur dog as I see it was bred to work stock( hogs, sheep, goats, cow;s), protect home/farm/ranch kids and wife used catch varmints. The cur can not compare to the hound in bottom, nose, desire to catch it's prey come hell or high water. The hound can compare in brains or use as an all around dog, the hound has ONE burning desire to hunt
