There is two ways to catch bad hogs, and we the hog hunters have created them as it is, with "packs of dogs" and "rough" dogs. Hogs are survivors, and a bunch of dogs or rough dogs force them to run in order to survive , so just use one or two dogs that will back up so the old bad hog thinks he can win or turn some lose that will catch and hold him where they find him, if they ever get to him in the first place.
If you have one truly good find dog that won't be constantly challenging a hog you will keep more bad running hogs bayed as long as they aren't just shoats. Someone earlier in this very post was telling about one of their dogs got way off to himself and had one of those runers bayed by himself for quite a while, that hog figured he could win against one dog. Just think about what you see and hear and then unless you just want them immediately caught where they are found quit turning a swarm of rough dogs loose in an attempt to "stop" hogs.
