I will bet anyone that is willing to come down and hunt that says their cd wont catch a cow if they turn it loose to a bay...........i wouldnt want a cd that wouldnt catch what my dogs had bayed......i got a crisp 100$ bill to put on the table to anyone who accepts!
Justin I won't take your bet!
I would have bet my gyp would catch anything that was bayed, I am lucky & she proved me wrong a couple weeks ago. We had caught 2 & they had killed several pigs. I had 2 young dogs on ground & 2 older dogs we were walking down a road down on the side of a creek toward where I had lost the dogs at 1mi plus and jumped a boar hog and he broke & ran across a field to another set of woods. within 5 min the two pups came in I took them to where we jumped the boar and they ran the track to rite inside the woods & bayed. I got within 20 yards and sent the gyp in. A minute or so passed & nothing then she sticks her head out headed back at me and out the side not 20 yards from me a big bull breaks across the field. I hollered at the pups scared to death. And managed to get them back as well. I know how lucky I was. I couldn't believe she didn't catch him. But I do no I wouldn't do it and figure on being that lucky again. All I can figure is I turn her loose at the house all the time and often pups are baying the roping calves and she was thinking enough to put two & two together.
