Refresh my simple mind shotgun, what kind of strike/bay dogs are you hunting? That bulldog sounds like a nice dog.

TDog ….my apologies. I don’t think I answered your question. I’m hunting a red BMC from the David Thoms line of stock dogs as my main bay dog. He’s a winding dog by nature but will ground trail some. Hunts out 300 yards in no sign. Checks in more than I like. He does his best work alone. He just grabs tracks or winds groups and falls bayed. No skipping around or runnin off. He just gets bayed. He’s quirky and shy around strange people and dogs. I’ve hunted dogs with better noses, more hunt, and more talent, but he bays me 3 times as many hogs. He just knows how to find em and stop em.

I like a short to medium range loose bay dog that stays busy and will roll over when groups bust. They don’t have to be finished. I can work with them. I run a small operation. 4 dogs. 1 finished bay, 1 bay prospect. I finished catch, 1 catch prospect. I treat them very well and only ask them to give me effort and some level of production 2 out of 7 days a week!
