Seriously thoguh, I like silent dogs because I know the dogs are bayed up FOR SURE when they're opening up.
Same here, and i like the silence lol. I like knowing my dogs are lookin the hog in the face when they open up! Just personal preference.
with my hounds i know when they are FOR SURE bayed by their bawl they let out..i can tell exactly how close they are getting while on track also.
well obviously if you are any kinda dogman you can tell the difference between em running a track and being bayed up, hell I don't hunt hounds and I can tell the difference. I just like hearing NOTHING until the bay. I like the quiet before the storm. not knockin you, just my hunting style and personal opinion
