Hounds- The original hunting dog!

Ive hunted em all and caught hogs with all, but if I had to pick between the two, it would be hounds, hands down. But I enjoy hunting with good cur dogs too, but the good ones are few and far between .
Im no dog whisperer nor do I have large amount of time to "train" a dog. This is why the hounds work for me, actually this line of plotts I have now. Just take them to the woods and put them on a track, 6-8 months old, and they go.
Im not sayin every hound will make a dog, cause they wont.
The hound bashing don't bother me much, cause I know most of the people bashing obviously have never seen a good one. Bit I also respect a mans preference to run silent dogs.
