Open or silent on the track… went hunting with Ray Buck and Jack Ward Saturday morning and was the first time I went hog hunting with hounds that are open on the trail…. I want to say thanks to the both of them for letting me and my pups go along was real fun…but to get back to the question what do all off u think about hunting with dogs that are open mouthed. We got out about 6 and by 7:30 we had a nice 250 lbs boar bayed up. Those dogs they had were real go getters and was glad to see my two go in and hunt with them… just don’t know what to think about the dogs not being able to hold the hogs like I was use to … when I found my dog he was at the truck and was cut not real bad but cut none the less… I think that he tried to stop the hog but didn’t have enough help could be wrong but don’t know could not keep up with those hounds of Rays… all and all it was a good hunt and would love to go with them again but will be ready for the long chase and wet ground u have to cover down there On The Creek With Ray Buck…

GOOSE, I won't touch the silent vs open, but I will give a definitive answer on the beer. Shiner is king.

kaufman, When I was a little boy, I drank Coors. Then my boys dropped, and I started drinking a man's beer.  TexasJ, You have good taste in dogs and women, can't say the same for your beer.

Personally I don't like open I have a cur that is and don't hunt her because of it but she will flat stop a hog so going to try and use her as a help dog to stop runners

just my opinnion but i think there sum advantages for each kind when using hounds u get a louder mouth and u can tell where they r but if ur hunting a property thats been dogged a lot hog learn to split when they hear a dog bark but i love a dog that finds hog no mater the breed

To be more specific I like bud lite best and miller lite second best.  I like cur dogs that can smoke a track and shutdown a hog. two or 3 barks when they first strike a hot track to bring in the rest of the pack is real nice plus I know what is going on right then and there. I like them silent after that but if the hog breaks bay a little bark here and there is ok. I do not like a cold nosed open trailing dog that barks every breath and takes an hour to jump the hog....By that time the hog is out of the county....

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog... A hunting dog is born not made...

No right or wrong answer here, but whatever you like personally and what works for you and the areas you hunt. But BEER is GOOD!!!!! don't have a favorite though prefer budlight or shiner when whiskey isn't available

You get on a big piece of land and their ain't nothin better than a good hound race, but I don't have that to hunt so I have curs.
They all have their purpose.
(except coors light)
