Open dog on runners

Ruben I agree on that but if I got 3 gritty dogs on the ground and looking at the hog most of the time it's caught no matter the size. Now busting the bay is another story anything can set the hog off to run. IMO I do think the barking makes them run more but like I said before a open dog usually open befor he is on top of the hog. Some bay right off some don't comes down to what a fella likes not what some one else thinks is right or wrong. I just hunt my way cuz that's what I do not that it better or not just my way. Open or not if they can get the job done they get my stamp
