Hanson u posed the question which dog is better the dog that is 2yr old been on 50 pigs or the 10 month old that's been on 100? That answer depends on population. In an area with an over abundance of hogs that 10 month old could fall out the truck on a hog. While that 2 yr old could be in an area that sightings are rare but possible. It is my opinion a man can learn far more about the ability and hunt in a dog in an area with no sign at all. Any dog can bark at a pig and most will if there is one behind every other tree. I have hit an area or 2 with high numbers over the years. I had places if I couldn't get on a hog in 30 min I got agitated. After a few years and several methods we got to the point I spent most of a summer trying to track down 3 hogs on 10k acres. We got 1 of them but it took a lot of dry runs to get it.

In the end if u want to know what kinda dogs u got go to a place with absolutely no sign and u know has lil to no pop and see how they act.
