There is a good and bad side to running any type dog. It just all depends on the hunters style and preference. When I started hunting it was either on foot or off a horse and we put 4-7 dogs on the ground at the same time... Most of the dogs being able to catch by themselves and mostly short-medium range. Problem being multiple catching/ bayings and dogs gettin injured too often. I tried lose baying dogs and for me that never really worked to well. Now I run rougher curs that will catch on most hogs but have enough sense to back down off a sho nuff hog and wait for the catch dog. Right now I do have 2 yella males that'd I'd consider your poacher type dogs you were talking about. And they will try to catch before you ever hear a bark. One does hunt between 200-500 yards and the other would rather just make sure no hogs sneak up and chew your feet off... He might hunt 200 yards out on a really good day but he ain't gone long but he is probably the main one id consider an RCD. Dogs like that can make for a quick hunt that's for sure and you don't gotta lead nothin round the woods which in my opinion is a plus.
