What do you expect out of your dogs?

Magnum,

I will disagree. I have hunted central fl for the last 15 years. I take pride in putting a cur dog on a single big hog track that "cannot be caught...or runs to bad for a one cur dog" and running a big hog 2 hours and catching him at the end. 99% of the guys around have a dog that will run one 30 minutes then give up. The good hogs know that. You put a dog that will run one till he is caught and game over.

You can catch a lot of hogs with short range rough dogs. You can catch a lot of small hogs with those dogs and you will catch a lot of good ones. But I DESPISE getting outrun and beat. Water no water....palmetto patches to briar patches a dog with no bottom is just that!

The best dogs I have been around in the same area are the same way.
