I prefer silent dogs. They suit me better. I can catch more hogs with them where I normally hunt because and how I hunt. But I’ve hunted with the hound men and its gotten wild, the amounts of hogs we can catch together is crazy. A good hound can find some the curs won’t ever smell and hang with them longer. The curs can shut em down quick if they wanna stop. To each his own. Whatever a man prefers to hunt and happy to feed is what is best. A hog dog is a hog dog, no need to argue or debate the characteristics that contribute to that.

Id have to say my BMCs have as much bottom and endurance as any hound ive seen, and i hunt with some good half hounds my friends use, I think curs bay better for sure. Sometimes that little bit of open helps getting the pups out but in general I hate them opening up like "most" do
